Nick is just lucky NSW has there own system Kerro ranking places him in a worse position. Under the Kerro system he would be better off starting a new bot.

More like rebuilding VL to make the disk lower!
Still the same sort of robot, just a different layout.

There really isn't a problem with making Jolt an undercutter; all the internal parts stay the same and Jolt already ends up in an undercutter configuration after most matches against Coba ! I would just be flipping Jolt over on a permanent basis...
Perhaps I will just rename the bot for the start of next season to get up the top of BOTH tables. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

getting back on track with the event ,i do like the idea of jeffs to have 1 day as the normal round .
as for the dates ,it can be on the [long weekend] or [the weekend after]
the dates of the long weekend are 30-9-06,1-10-06,2-10-06.
the dates the weekafter are 6-10-06. 7-10-06,8-10-06. the 6th still falls in the school holiday zone so it is an option as the third day if needed .
which way we go im easy ,its 4 weeks away so theres a chance i will have work commitments by then and might be around for either.
but please decide asap so we all know .ill put up a poll if i can work it out _________________ Photos - http://community.webshots.com/album/154092733uokpXC

Damn didn't see your post chris! Damn school interupting my browsing sessions!
Normal event is fine with me, plus it solves the fact that I don't know who to team up with and we all know we want to see spinner on spinner action...
Also on task is my beetleweight which will be ready to rumble at the event for a beetle match or just for smashing cans, what ever. _________________ ( •_•)
well the silly season has hit, thats what we call it in the building industry anyway ,i can say that between now and for the next 12 weeks im officially unavailable its good for the buisness but not good for free time ,so have fun and il do my best to turn up ,ill still stick the bib when i can _________________ Photos - http://community.webshots.com/album/154092733uokpXC

Jeff F's bot
Jeff J BETTER HAVE A ROBOT!
Grassy's bot (might be a no show)
Prometheus
Orbit
Plan F/G

got the IBC working again.
(found the origional diodes w00t)
however the battery pack is taking all of 200mah of charge.
so who has some spare 3600s?
looks like 5 are duds.
drop to .9v under 5A load.
dont know about the other pack yet.
However our new battery pack is definatly "the shiz"
oh yeah, what date is this thing specifically? _________________ Mechanical engineers build weapons, civil engineers build targets
