Next, Wales will follow suit, and the U.K. will cease to exist. HAHAHAHAHA suck it Britfags.
keep dreamin' you rebellious yank.
Pay no heed- that Yankshaft's jelly because we've got green land, breathable air and small businesses in some places

Hey, my girlfriend wants to know what DSL stands for. Can anybody tell me?

Amp-flow motors provide some of the best power to weight ratios period, the A28-150 motor has a peak of three full horsepower, in less that four pounds.
Ah, OK. I'm not that knowledgable on certain parts you see, so advice is great to have.

He's Scottish, same as NFX and Sys. I'm the British one
Well, United Kingdomish then. 
Edit: Hang on a minute, Scotland is in Great Britain so Scottish still = British.
Might not be for long.
Would be best if it were after the next priministerial election since Scottland is full of Labour voters so we might knock the Tories of their high horse.
Actually, most of us vote SNP
AAAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH

Wasn't that already the case? Apparently up there, Conservative MPs are more endangered than Ospreys.

Speaking of Robot Marketplace, anyone know what those HW Battlekits they sell are like? If they're good enough, I may consider building something out of one.
They come from the guy that built Biohazard, if you don't mind lots of screws, they will work.
Ah, that sounds good- I'll remember that. If I can come into some Sponduli (About 2500 British Pounds for the best options), I think it'll definitely be worth considering.
don't bloody bother. think i might have made this point before but i wouldn't spend my money one one of them, especialy not for the uk style of fighting.
I think it's mainly its options for good motors and batteries, backwards compatibility with other internal parts (So I could buy it without the apparently not-so-good Ampflow controller, which makes up a good portion of the price, and get a comparable Vantec/RoboteQ controller or something instead), bulletproof, BioHazard-esque drivetrain, build quality and adapability to design that appeals to me most, but I'll have a think on either of my options when the time comes for me to build. If anything, it might be good for learning how to build initially, before branching out into my own designs later. Dunno if RobotMarketplace delivers to Finland, Dunno if any robotics site does really...
It does, actually- I checked the potential shipping thingamajigs whilst I was there.

I will build fleaweights, so I need light and good motors... and batteries... and whatever bot needs. Never tried to build one yet.
Neither have I, but to tell the truth, I've always wanted to build robots. I've driven Heavyweights before, but never built one.

A good place for robot combat parts is Robot Marketplace.
A good ESC is the SaberTooth 5. It handles more current than the Tiny Escs, has in built mixing, and costs a little bit less than them, but both have a proven track record so take your pick.
Gold sparks are awesome, but silver sparks are even better. If you're short on weight, the KG17 will work.
Lite Flites are awesome, use finger tech hubs to mount them.
A good cheap radio is the Hobby King HK-6. If your willing to pay a bit more for the programming cable, you'll have a decent radio with the ability to mix. If you want the best radio for the price, the Airtronics SD-5G is a good option, costs about as much as the Spektrum Dx5e, but is vastly superior.
Rhino Li-polys are the cheapest I found, but Turnigy also makes good Li-pos for a good price. A123 batteries, however, are the best by far, if you can find a supplier, get them!
If you want a good servo for the price, the HXT 6.9 Kg offers a good price, and has decent speed and torque.

My Fourth Coaster is now up and running- goes against my original plan of a Family Woodie somewhat due to a lack of space, but I'm quite happy with it. It's a non-looping Steel Coaster built completely underground, much like The Rat at Lightwater Valley in the UK. Excitement in the Mid-5s (due to its thrill and mystery of being completely in the dark) and Intensity in the Lower 4s with a very low Nausea rating, so it's all good.

There's no rule about having multiple accounts and entering one bot per account though
Lolnah.

I wasn't around for BBEANS 4, so I don't know if I can really judge. I don't think it would have been as bad if Scrap had described the bot he wanted, and Sage built it accordingly, like a ghost-builder of some description. I've no idea if this is real or not, though, I just wanted to poke Naryar with a stick. =P
Poke the dragon if you wish, but know that it is unwise to do so...
Dude I am totally okay with it. The only reason I entered grinnin face was because click woldn't expand the bracket if he didn't get more bots. I think grinnin face was one of the last bots to be entered into that tournament, and opening the brackets to 64 was overall a good idea.
So in effect, an Angry Scot saved BBEANS- fancy that

Next : giga coaster. And it's gonna be appropriately "giga".
Aiming for 5km long, or more.
Considering the space available, good luck with that

And i just forgot something - new weightclass in NAR AI. You can thanks enigma for that.
It's Gigaheavyweight (GHW) from 5000kg to 10000kg. You can now send.
No more classes heavier than that cause a 10000kg bot may kill my processor already.
Feedback appreciated.
10,000kg? Bloody Hell, you could probably build a replica of the Death Star with it

9.02 Excitement (TAKE THAT GF)
*Angry German Kid scream*But seriously, nice to see a bit of healthy competition ^^ Just in the process of finishing off my second coaster- it's a Schwarzkopf Looper with 8 Excitement, Intensity in the mid-7s, 60mph top speed, and two interlocking loops- if it actually existed, it'd be the only other one in the World to have them, apart from Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

I have a hunch Vertigo would know where to get some.

DP:
All right, my first major Roller Coaster is up. It's a Wooden Coaster, based primarily on the Coney Island Cyclone. Other than that, all I'm going to reveal is that it got 8s in both Excitement and Intensity on initial testing. So yes- I'm quite happy with it so far.

It's a powered launch looping coaster.
Also only four coasters ? I intend to make much more.
Ah, so a Schwarzkopf Shuttle Loop? Those are always nice to have. But yes, that's the plan- I intend to have a few really good coasters, rather than loads of them. Helps it look a bit more realistic. Might change the amount slightly according to circumstances, but that's around the number I'm aiming for at the moment.
