Antweight 2v2 League - Got a friend with an Antweight Bot? Got a spare bot? Jump into our team tournament. Last team standing wins! Additional info:

BYO drinks. No alcohol please.

Important points for bot builders to remember:

NO SWITCHING ANY ROBOT ON OUTSIDE OF THE ARENAS OR TEST BOXES. This will not be tolerated now with the addition of the more dangerous

Roboteers who are under 16 must have a parent or guardian with them in the pit area. A second table space will be assigned to the parent/guardian.

Bring tools! Most robot fighters bring their own equipment and are usually happy to share but this isn't a guarantee.

Make sure your bot has an indication light to show when it's switched on.

Sharp edges and surfaces must be covered when not in the arena. These coverings must be a bright visible colour.

You must have a mechanical locking mechanism for bots with dangerous weapons. This locking device must be a bright visible colour.

Bring a mounting block of some sort to keep your bot raised up off your work space when not in use.

If you have a custom control system (ie. Arduino RF or Wifi) you may be required to do some testing in the arena to make sure your system doesn't affect other competitors or they you.

Only charge batteries on the designated charging table. A LiPo safe bag must be used whilst charging.

All 240V equipment (soldering irons, chargers, etc.) must be tested and tagged before use at the event. This is a requirement of the venue. The event organisers can do testing and tagging.

Not following these and the rules described in our SPARC rulesets may result in disqualification.
