I was quite fortunate in the sense that Nebelwerfer smashed the two drill motors/gearboxes that were idle rather than the two that were driving the machine so thankfully it was just a case of swapping out the duffed motors and bending it all back into shape. But its now beyond repair after its last fight with Prolodju so time for a rebuild from scratch

And I agree - DB5 does look pretty cool with a full pressure system

Ive only just recovered from exhaustion and need a holiday now

I would Like to say a massive thank you to all who helped take the arena down after the event, also to the large amount of unrecongnised crew who busted a gut to put this championship on for you.
Thank you all very much

Congratulations to beauty who is now the European Champion after a fantastic performance through out the whole weekend. look after the trophy, it took me ages to make!

Also to Prolodju which looked brilliant every battle, congratulations on being the European 6kg Champion!

Other mentions must go to Push & Shove for there fantastic driving, certainly desevered to be in the final! Little Spinner who put on an amazing performance for the trophy and in my oppinion was the best i have seen it compete & certainly desevers a big title. Nebelwarfer whos destructive weapon and good driver meant it only lost one battle, unfortunatly it was the most important fight!

We hope you all had a great time, it will certainly be a memorable event for us. Thank you all your support and for the nice comments about our Arena and Event, they are all much appriciated thanks.

From the Robo Challenge crew, Thank you for coming and we hope we can host another championship for you.




(now i can finally get on with building Predator again... )

Best quote from Jamie during the competition,

Maybe I underestimated the raptor class

JH-Q its ok, nothing expensive got damaged
Its more just a case of since the 2mm aluminium chequerplate chassis has been bent and unbent several times its now just no longer strong enough for robot competition, therefore Im going to rebuild it to cope with nasty evil powerful spinners

That mistake is made by loads of people first time they enter Raptor competitions. Then they meet robots like Conflict, Whopper, Basilard, Medusa, Nebelwerfer, and now the Finnish ones as wel. You learn quickly then that 6kg robots can pack a punch.

The Fins did surprise us more.
Come over to the German events and chew them up.

And, depending on travel cost, why shouldnt we come over to your events?

From the Fin forum, it has the first hit of Nebel and Polodju in slow motion. Great stuff.
