Re: 2012 FRA UK Featherweight Championships by RoboChallenge

Had a great day today, one of the best events I've been to in a while! It was nice only having to worry about one robot, too. Had fun, even though Metalbeak didn't perform perfectly and the weapon didn't fire for 3 of my whiteboards... Should be sorted out now, thanks to everyone for their help! The new RoboChallenge red wheels really increased the grip and all round performance, although they seem to pick up lots of dust... Won my first fight today, Metalbeak works really well as a pusher surprisingly. Only
got 4 points, but Venom (who replaced Cpt. Scarlett ICYDK) was far too low, and the flipper doesn't close fast enough so I ended up in the pit. Beauty 3 flipped me OOTA in about 2 seconds, and my battery connector slipped out and caused power failure in my third fight, so I was out first. I still had fun, but I didn't expect to go very far anyway, and at least I had lots of fun in the whiteboards!
Can't wait for what tomorrow brings, should be awesome!

What James said earlier:

If you wish to unload equipment at hall 9 door 9.1 you will first need to get a loading pass from car park 12. Head to Gate 3 on arrival and say you are unloading for the Gadget Show and they will direct you to car park 12. Please arrive early as it can be busy to get passes.

Any other questions just fire them thisa way. I will be at the NEC during the days but will endeavour to answer questions as soon as possible.

To help speed things up, just go straight to car park N12, say you're an exhibitor who needs to unload stuff. They'll give you an unloading pass, then head to Gate 1 (it's closer to Hall 9 than Gate 3), unload your stuff at door 9.1, and then park your car. Grant will sort you out with an exhibitor's parking pass so you don't need to pay £8 a day.

Only major damage this time has been to tormenta, NST tore its front end almost completely off.

Re: 2012 FRA UK Featherweight Championships by RoboChallenge

I think Conker left in bits too, but not much damage really.
