What's the cat? Featherweight? What's its weapon?

From initial testing, Jasper (FW) was found to jump out of the arena and claw the opposing roboteer's crotch.

The friend who it was first tested against got gangrene in his private parts due to it. It was rough.

Shapeways, but in future I'm going to be speaking to my Uni to see if I can do it there as I imagine it'll be a whole lot cheaper.

You could try asking Alex or Will. Alex will do a chassis for around £20-25

Upped it to 4S lipo, botbitz 10a escs (gotta go careful there!), the fancy ranglebox 'good' and hardened 1000rpm motors, and 2 of the 15.5kg.cm servos I ran on Snappy 1 (only ran 1 there). If I can make it not blow up it should at least be interesting.

It's a UK beetleweight creepalot so it'll be around 1.5kg

Hey Congrats on making the quarters and winning the Annihilator.

Also, where is that RW floor skin located?  The actual event?

The event was all filmed by multiple sources, only actually officially finished like 5 hours ago though so everyone has either been socialising at the venue since then or travelling home, expect footage over the next few days.

The floor from that photo was the floor of the Kinematic Events arena itself.

Yep. Side panels, baseplate and lid are all 4mm HDPE. Internal HDPE 'bulkheads' if you will are all 10mm so there's always at least 10mm of HDPE (usually 14) between bots and the electronics.
Wedge is 2mm Grade 5 Titanium, so it takes a hell of a knock.
