Can we assemble the feather arena on Saturday? With so many people there we should only have to put up one or two panels each. We should be able to install it quite quickly. The level floor and no roof should make things even easier. _________________ So even the rain that falls isn't actually going to fill our dams and our river systems

Yeah saw that, but I was thinking..... do we need to get there a bit earlier to build the arena? _________________ Miles Blow - Julie Pitts

I gotta sort out with the hackerspace guys they don't seem a bunch of early risers so probably be there at 9.
Will let people know tomorrow night. One feather is together now working on sky turtle. Will have to pull BB mini as I have killed the weapon motor. Scorpy is slowly coming along.
Arena is loaded, so is softdrink. I have bolts but they are too long for the corners so I have to grab some from bunnings tomorrow.
We still need to clean the panels. I started but after 4 I gave up as it was taking like 15mim each panel because I had to move the panel like 3 times by myself. I gave up and just loaded them into the trailer. So we will need to clean the panels sat morning. Shouldn't take too long. If we are feeling lazy we can just clean half and look through those we don't really need to do whole arena.
There is few food places down the road which is my plan for lunch. I haven't organised a bbq or anything.
@Andrew sorry didn't post reply sooner, thats cool if you want to bring people along. Just dont really want randoms wandering in off the street.
Also can someone bring webcams if they have them. Not sure what the best way to setup cameras between feather and antweight arena. Also we can record videos and let them play on repeat on our stream so that might be worthwhile if I can work out how it works. Also does anyone else have a long network cable? I can liberate one if necessary but its sort bit of a pain.

I'll bring a webcam but I won't bring my laptop. Its taking longer and longer to get it warmed up and I'm afraid it'll never turn on again if I turn it off. But I will be ordering a new laptop tonight, will just take 3 weeks to receive it.
I'll set up th ant arena while you guys do the big one.

Struggling to get the FW built in time due to being in Toowoomba yesterday, but I'll pull an all nighter tonight and see how we go _________________ https://www.halfdonethings.com/
Nooo just destroyed a sabertooth. Plugged battery into motor lead.
Not sure what I am going to do. Was going to hack some plush 30s but they have changed the design so can't even do that. I have a spare IBC round somewhere though I dont think it will fit.....
@ aaron bring the plushes I will give them a go hooked up IBC and its just not working. Well it sorta drives then stops and starts. Could be anything really.
Mechanically naked-turtle is done. Just needs some electronics. I have no idea whether the gas system will work at all and I only have one cylinder which I am worried will leak and I will lose all my gas in one fight.
Backup plan is just to pump it up and have 1 flip per fight. But I think I should be able to get it running.

Which part of the Cylinder do you think is leaking? _________________ Viggy!

Hi Steve ...you mean you never hacked a set of tz85s for your own bots? We can offer a set of our old blue speedos..he he? We have two sets of hacked plush 30's we can bring to?
