Just a question, will wood "funbotics" class bots be welcome at this event?
Its just i don't really have the time to build both a featherweight and wood robot (at this time though it may change), yet i still would love to compete in january... also unless against heavy duty spinners, thick MDF is quite good amour, and easy to fix! _________________ ( •_•)

Hmm, unless there is a sudden explosion of people building them, I doubt we will run a specific class just for them, I'd have to see at least 4 or 8 robots to run a fun-botics class.
However, theres nothing to stop you from entering a MDF bot in the normal featherweight competition provided it meets all safety rules and regs etc.
You might get turned into a pile of sawdust however when coming up against the more powerful feather spinners, but if you dont mind that, go ahead..
If enough people build funbotics class bots, then I would consider running a class for them _________________ Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people

so is the january date set in stone now?
Not yet. I'll be visiting the guys down at SideTracked soon and see how they feel about it - Cant see a problem at this point, but until its booked in I cant say for sure. should know next week.
So its about as good a date as we can get and noone has any major problem with it ? _________________ Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people
