Time for loading is between 8:00 & 8:40.

8:40 is the safety briefing.

You are meant to take your machine away with you after 18:15 but I have seen equipment locked into the arena. Bulletproof arena with vault doors - good luck burgling that!

Re: Robo Challenge - 2013 FRA UK Featherweight Championships

To do a full build good and proper for my new spinner will take time...I wont have time to get into this years champs so can my name be removed from the reserved list please..... However....

I can say I will be at the champs with the weapon I will use for my new robot but added to another current featherweight robot. So I will be part of a new team. I will confirm with my partner this weekend and let you know James. For now.... the robot my weapon will be mounted to is already on the list so no worries.

Re: Robo Challenge - 2013 FRA UK Featherweight Championships

We currently have to find a space for Turisas as their entry didnt come through until after sign ups closed.
Reserves:
Shane Swan
Push n Shove

With 3 robots trying to get in? Just increase the size of the champs by 3 spaces!
Actually, if you do the math, it works better than 45 robots, 48 can be split in half for 2 equal groups then divided into 8 equal 3-way heats each day, without any 2-way only fights.

Anyway...

Name - Skyfall
Weapon - Full Pressure Flipper
Armour - HDPE, Ali
Drive - 2x Speed 900s
Other - Not finished yet :P

Name - Ricochet
Further Information Withheld on the grounds that I want it to be a surprise and I don't know myself to be honest
