I beleive the Roboteers email has been sent out. If you aint got it, then... well you never will....
Anyway, send an email to me if you require one back, details that is, not a random email.
See you all there on Saturday, im all geared up for this, hopfuly going to be a cool show - remember Halloween and also the last chance for Roboteers to get into the Maidstone Grand Finals!

No alex, no white boards, dont do them no more.
-- Yes of course theres white boards so plenty of them. Though for feather weights its a harder issue to fit in. we have 2 shows, and normally 2 feather fights per show. Thats 4 feather weight fights, and we need to run the competition. Normaly 2 qualifiers then the final. Thats 3 fights needed, leaving 1 spare for a white board. So we do have an issue with this, but will try and add another white board somewhere, but this will involved pushing another fight in, so hope roboteers are ready to be onform.

ok well crumple zone is abit over weight.... i havent been allowed both by my parents and by myself to do much robot work this week so is it ok to do some testing both the shows (seeing as im getting there early:wink and then fight in the white boards?

yeah ill bring it. will need sombody to charge it i think my chargers broke. ill have another try at it and ill tell you if its charging in an hour or so.

I have wired the battery up to my pro peak with allsorts of bits of wire hanging out of it, a little dangerous but hopefully it should charge. i charged my futaba radio gear like this before i got a new charger and it worked.

Oh, damn!
Why couldnt Hunter be done for the event!?
Ohwell, im going to watch, so itll be fun.
Sounds like a good show at the mo.
We could have put the speed controller in Hunter and wire him all up and just enter him in white-boards, but my dad insicsts that we make a unit for the speed controller, so we havent finished him yet.
We would normally go to the Maidstone event, but my parents have to go to a Ju-Jitsu kids gradding, while i sit around at home doing nothing, so im a bit sad, but, still, im going to this one...
We have approximatly 2 hours left till we reach Nottingham from Dorset.

i still have a complete robot to build. got all night and a few hour in the morning tho. few bits for it to pick up at the event but it should only be a 5 min job there. what time yall arriving then?
25th October 2008 - Roaming Robots - Harvey Hadden Complex,
Im just finishing off some boring database stuff here in Malvern at work... then at 5:30 ill be racing up to Nottingham (in friday rush hourr traffic) to get to nottingham to make a start on the media set up for the shows tomorrow.
Remember to be there for about 12:15pm and ready to fight by 1pm so tech checks can be complete.
Errrrm, just to let roboteers know we are 1 main crew member down this weekend, and will be re arranging things slightly. If we could have your co-operation and patience as normal that would be great.
