That sucks Joacim, I hope you do manage to get over for the event :S
Jack, I might well end up asking for your number cause I've lost the bit of paper from RFRC some directions from Richmond railway station might be of use too.

Almost ready for the event now.
I have spent that last 2 days working solidly on Tempest in an attempt to get it under the weight limit- the chassis has been milled right down to a third of its original weight, I bought a new 4g rx and it is starting to get there. It currently weighs 149g but still needs a top cover so there is still a few grams left to find but it is very nearly there.
Ant Awe 6 now has a new front end as is ready to run and now fits in the cube a little better than before.
Still another couple of hours worth of work but I am hoping to get everything done tomorrow so that I can have a complete test to make sure that everything works.

I am having a nightmare with parts:
I ordered some parts early last week from robotbirds who sent them to derby (i am in newcastle now). I have been begging them to forward them on but i am not sure i will get them in time. This has parts for all my ants in, so because of time i won't have cataclysm finished. I also ordered a 20A 12V power supply. Does anyone have something like this i could borrow on saturday, i have got an electric pump for anticide and my current pst can't handle the power needed.
I have ordered strafens chassis from shapeways and have been told that the machine crashed twice trying to make it. So going to rush together a polycarb chassis for it and hope to have it working in time.
So definatly have the normal 2, maybe strafen if i can get it all built in time.
