well how say we judge it up to 5 minutes, then we just keep going (the rest would have no bearing on judging) _________________ www.demon50s.com - Minimoto parts

That could work - I don't think many bots have much more than 5 minutes capacity anyway.
Do we have a list of confirmed bots yet? Basilisk will be there with some new bits but maybe only one battery pack. The Robolympic testbot may make an appearance as well. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

well cobra will be there once more, radio or not.
its looking fine at the moment, ill have to get round to doing those angle brackets on the outside but the mangled corners are really making it tricky. the new secret hammer head (basically a little wedge with spikes out the side ) should utterly kill the rest of you guys as well, so just expect to loose against me (i seriously expect on getting my ass kicked big time too just so you know..) _________________ www.demon50s.com - Minimoto parts

He he, I am hoping my mods will work against all those pesky low-hight bots and Robort too! If I can't beat Robort this time, I will seriously have to think about taking up something quieter like lawn bowls _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

Dont think ill be able to get to the build meet, but Singularity should be at Marayong 8 with mods to make it nice and strong, provdiing that the RS80D is all good with this replacement regulator and at least one of my battlepacks is functioning properly. Are we going to adopt the weight jump to 13.6kg this event?
BTW, Singularity will run for more than 10 minutes on a fresh charge, providing of course that the stupid powerpoles dont come undone. Im changing them all to deans connectors, they take a hell of a lot to come undone, are much smaller, and still will carry 80A continuous. _________________ Jeff Ferrara

well the builders day was pretty sweetness.
el bravos really got a kick in the ass. much faster now, but on a far more impressive and important note cobras new wedge/hammer goes straight under the front! yay for me
refbot got its drive fixed, and no work on the arena wall yet, we'll probably just dump a ton more screws in the thing in the morning of the event.
one little surprise too, we found a bar of sorry that got torn out and was sitting inside refbot (which was on the table ), looks like it had some basilisk and plan b bites in the thing too - nice!

Hello N.S.W people. Wish lots of talk about teh weight boosting and the poll showing that we will have the extra weights.
When are we planning on implementing it into our series/competition. I wish to know because i am about to build my next featherweight and need to know because i can change some thigs and add some stuff if need be etc etc. Thanks all. _________________ Andrew Welch, Team Unconventional Robotics

ok well i dont care either way about the weight lift or what ever.
ok if we have time who is up for robot soccer this event? cause i glen and jeff seem up for it and i got a ball... (a mini basket ball with cable ties on it lol seems good tho and hopefully wont roll down on the slight angle that the arena has) and i can make up some goals today aswell so yeah _________________ as a shadow is seen and not heard i am here
