Thought I'd also let you know, there is already a "Team Vortex"
http://www.buildersdb.com/view_team_bots.asp?teamid=27
I wanted to use the name "Vortex" for our heavyweight back when Andrew and I got into bots (Nearly 5 years ) but I found that there was already a bot called Vortex and it was built by Team Vortex So Andrew and I played with some words and came up with "Vertex" instead derived from "VERticle vorTEX" due to the 20kg vertical fliywheel in our heavies design. We've been Team Vertex ever since
I'm sure no one here in Aus will care about using that name, but the guys in the US might be a little annoyed if you do. Maybe send them an email about it? I'm sure they are pretty reasonable guys
On topic
Build a featherweight or build an Ultibot, heavyweights are horrible... Working on them, moving them, lifting them, pushing them are all major efforts, it takes 2-3 people to do anything with them... And there is no competition for them, hence why we have a 80% complete heavyweight jsut sitting in the shed gathering rust
Build a featherweight, battle regular and build an ultibot if you want to play in the open world of anything goes _________________ https://www.halfdonethings.com/
