I think a wedge can count as having a weapon, if its got ~1Kw of drive, cobra would be the minimum standard

Vendetta should be 1.5kW. Is that enough?

But aren't we wanting this to be without walls?...I thought that was the reason of no spinners? Cant really have a flame thrower without walls?


or are we having walls and the reason we don't have spinners is so they don't all get wrecked?

Can't really have wanda or pneumatics without walls either. General progression to something we can run without walls. Flamethrower was just something daniel had on hand.

If wanda lets go of a towball or someone has an explosion with compressed air thats also quite dangerous. For now just settling on no-spinners as it means we won't get completely destroyed so hopefully we can continue to use existing bots in such a comp while we move towards something which we can run outside.

Need to build the suspended arena first.....

Which reminds me I have some drawings from Dad of arena Daniel but prolly not what you needed.

would an onboard camera be classed as an active weapon? Think of the shots? Very Happy

Haha no but I will not discourage it. Would anyone have any objections to considering onboard cameras exempt from weight limits?
