RoboGames 2012
I went onto the RoboGames website to register an 150g Ant for the event and I found a few new robots on there. One looks so familar that I had to show everyone.
Hedgehog (looks the same as my Fury Jr)

Robogames registration will probably open to feather weights. Avenger, Vendetta or Sidewinder. I can't decide.

WTF???!!!
Dave told me "No way" last year, so I didn't plan anything even though I finally had the time & money Take whicheve bot is the most reliable - you will have your hands full running two bots by yourself.

yeah, I built the heavy weight because he said no to feathers. Reliable? That would be Vendetta.

I voted Sidewinder for the coolness factor although all things considered Vendetta is by far your best chance, reliable, can drive and has been known to stack an enamy or smash them into a wall. _________________ Remember to trust me, I am an Engineer.

Yeah, I saw Dave's message just after I posted the question - I wonder why he changed his mind? Its too late for me, I have already signed up for a trip to hell (also known as Gibraltar) to see the mother-in-law.

Your on. After 9 years I've never blown a speed controller.
Seems like my boring feather will go if the 30's are opened in the registration. But at least it doubles as spare parts for Huntsman. Vendetta uses the same wheels, sprokets, chains and electronics. Possibly even the same battery.
