yes. trying to put a wedge on though its being a pain to do as my dads drill ran out of battery, and its hard to fit the wires in the robot.Remote-Controlled Dave wrote:Oh! Cool. Is that Jaguar?

1-2 grams overweight, depending on what mood my scales are in, any suggestions?
UPDATE: ok i think i did most of it, i may be a fraction of a gram overweight, i have no idea how accurate my scales are :/

You'll be fine. A gram over wont disqualify you. If it weighs 153g on my scales you'll be asked to try and shed a little but looks like you'll be fine.

Re: team playzooki or whatever im gonna call it
if I heard write there is an unwritten rule that a there is a two gram allowance for overweight robots to compensate for differences in scales. i think that's right.
my scales are terrible! all i know is fleadom fighter is somewhere between 63 grams and 70 grams

That is correct. Though it is unwritten because you cant just start building robots at 152g instead.

Plans for the next event(probably ant freeze 2015):
Jaguar will stay largely the same, definitely a new wedge. I may get a better reciever as the one i have has an annoyingly large ariel. I will also get some cable ties. If i can figure out a way to be invertible without going overweight i will. I am also going to purchase a nanotwo kit, a battery and maybe some armour for another robot, maybe a flipper as i have a servo lying around. I might even win a competition fight.

Just cut down the aerial. I assume you're running 2.4ghz. It won't make any noticable difference in an antweight.
