28th December 2009 - Robots Live - Snibston Discovery Park

[blazerbotics]

Robot Live are returning to our roots for a return to Snibston Discovery Park in Coalville, Leicester (about 4miles from our Whitwick venue). Our first public event was held here back in 2003, we will be running a similar event again. There will be fighting robots on display, antweight competition, our pay to drive system and mechanoids ect. We dont have many events like this anymore, where you can have a chat and a chance to show off any robot related christmas presents!

In 2003 we had 2000 people over the day who visited, and was attended by many robots including; Chaos 2, Tornado, S3, Pussycat, Bulldog Breed, Storm 2, Mute and it was the first appearance of Big Nipper where we all stood around saying That will never work!, how wrong we were!

Times: Are to be confirmed but probably 10am-3pm.

Venue: Snibston Discovery Park, Ashby Road, Coalville, Leicestershire, LE67 3LN

We are mainly looking for robots for static display, antweights to fight and any other robot related stuff you might have for display. Interactive robots (mechanoids, daleks ect can drive around the museum). We should be able to get you free access into the museum as well.

If anybody wants to come along for a relaxed event, post here or send me an email (alan@robotslive.co.uk)

We'll be there with our antweights and arenas, if that's OK. I've also started a topic here for the antweight community

Thats great Simon, i was just about to put a post up on your forum, but you've beat me to it! I'm hoping to get Chroma out of cupboard and get it fighting again, so i might be on there for abit of advice, as i've not fought ants for about 5-6 years!

It looks like I'll be in the country then so I'll definitely be up for attending with my variously shaped ants

Yep rushed the pneumatics on Thursday night so there was a leak somewhere in the bottom of the robot, but couldn't be bothered to sort it out yesterday.

Re: 28th December 2009 - Robots Live - Snibston Discovery Park

hey its not too clear if you said whether or not the main area will b there or will it just be static display and ants, u say your wanting robots for display so no feather fights or anything?

if it will b like the birmingham event ill come along.

thanks for now

Hi, there won't be a large arena there, just an antweights and Pay-2-Drive arenas. Feathers and Heavies are on static display only. Also all roboteers get free entry into the museum as well.

Re: 28th December 2009 - Robots Live - Snibston Discovery Park

Sorry for repeating myself, but would it be OK if I brought along a couple of arenas as well?
