Sounds like there will be some interesting taste sensation at camp from bitterballen to chocolate paste! Wish I could bring some peanut butter (one of my favorites on toast)...but Ive heard peanut butter really messes with airport security. Since peanut butter is so dense, security xrays cant penetrate the stuff. Security gets very anxious about items they can see through!

New armour for your robot then, just cover it in Peanut butter !!!!

Maybe one of the Dutch guys can bring some peanutbutter along for you. Personally, I wont touch the stuff.

As for armour, after gaffium we now seem to have invented peanutbutterium ? Way to go roboteers...

One of lifes fundermental questions... Smooth or crunchy?

[leorcc]

>>> 23rd-27th August / The RR UK Championships 2

That would depend on the weight. Crunchy should be less dense therefore lighter.

Wendy and Max you may want to check with your carrier about getting sewer snake over here.. All the airports have gone to critical alert here due to suspected terrorist threat.. Im guessing they may not be delighted to carry radio gear and robot switches and stuff any time soon...

Smooth

Follow up to robs post. Some papers here in the UK are saying the travel problems may go on for a month, so you will be well advised to check about sewer snake asap. As you may end up having to send him by sea!!!

If Im right Sewer snake is already in the UK having been shipped over via freight and is currently residing at a well known central UK hydraulics company..... who also have a robot in the same heat !

.... Im sure any damage to the bot will have been caused in shipping Matt

Quick question Ive been looking at some of the posted videos and it apears that the fight run 3 min. Is the UK champ fights going to be 5 or 3 minutes long?
and the 2% weight thing only for pnumatic bots or does every bots get that?

Thanks

Matt
