Just make Mitch a new bot as a present - all sorted! I can make it the weekend after (30/07/2005) but not the weekend before. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

Just letting you guys know that i've now got two spy cameras (not wireless).l One is colour and audio (not great picture though), and the other is Black n White with audio (very sharp image). I'll bring them along to the build day. I think these will allow some awsome shots like birds eye view and rear view (to get those shots that you can't get usualy. They need a slave vcr or tv to connect to, as well as a 9v adapter. _________________ ( •_•)

The cameras worked great and we installed and tested the RC cam. Worked pretty well, just needs some bolt tightening and a remote microphone.
The small cams will go high up in one corner for a wide as possible view and one at floor level that runs across the front of the inner poly screen on a motorised track,,,, ok that last part I just thought up but its a top idea!

Jolt will be nastier this time, with a heavier weapon bar - count on that front bumper of yours getting even more chopped up !
Are we definitely going for the weekend after the original date? Its fine by me - I just need to book a day off on the Friday before the event. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

lol its going to end up like spinners vs tyres next event,
well i found more laser cut 4.5mm steel so ill cut so more of cobra out but im not sure if ill get it done, lots of drive line stuff to make and not much time with all these dang exams.
So who's going into the beetle rumble? I've given up on making a feather for this event, sorry. (but i hope my beetle is running!)
I also (with the extra time on my hands) can make a servo-capgun mech and maybe some circular saw beetle arena obstical. PYROTECNIC CLAPPER! _________________ ( •_•)
