23/24th June 2007 Roaming Robots - National Space Centre Feather Weight Full Combat.

After the success of our visit to the National Space Centre two years ago. Roaming Robots has been invited back to do it all over again. This time bigger and better than ever before !!!

Some good news for the feather weight community, I can now confirm, that this event will be the first outing of the Roaming Robots Class 2 Arena.

Measuring 9.5m x 6m, 10mm makrolon screens and a 6mm roof, designed specific for feather weights, the usual arena flipper, hammer and of course the pit, this arena will hopefully help keep feather weights alive and kicking€¦or rather spinning !!!!

We will be running a feather weight full combat championship over the course of the weekend, with heavy weight demonstration fights in between, plus pay to drive in our separate arena, this is the first time that feather weights will truely be centre stage with Roaming Robots !!!

We already have a prize fund in place for the top 3 winners, and a limited amount of accommodation provided on a first come first served basis.

This event will hopefully be a sign of things to come with the future with Roaming Robots 2007 / 2008 as it grows stronger and stronger.

Lots more info to come as it develops, I will keep you posted.

It will take place inside the Space centre, in the main gallery in amongst all of the attractions.

For those who came before, I have already been asked... no the accommodation is not the grotty campsite we stayed at before, it is the local Holiday Inn.

Bring as many as you like !!!

No limit good, should have two new feather spinners by then, I started the build and dished out the money before the FRA announcement so im relived there is an event I can attend this year. But put me down as possible sunday only, due to working Saturdays. Shame its so late into the year also, but I will look forward to it.

Well be there (assuming that the feds havent dragged Jen & I off to Guantanamo Bay for breaking FCC rules... I.E. using a 40Mhz TX at Robogames! )

Geoff, if you want to avoid 40MHz in the US, I could arrange a 72Mhz TX set, or else a Spectrum DX6. Thats good all over the world (and not expensive either compared to high level PCM sets)

[leorcc]

23/24th June 2007 FRA FW UK Championships, Space Centre

Geoff already owns at least one DX6 I believe.
