Hello all! Big Bang Robotics will be taking our 120-lb robot to a competition in Ormond Beach next week - "Battle at the Beach". The competition will feature nearly 100 robots and will run from March 5-8. We expect to see a lot of flying parts - though hopefully not from OUR bot. The bots that place first and second in this South East Championship event will qualify to compete in the Triangle National Championship this August in Minnesota. Wish us luck! One of the interesting things about this competition is it will be "broadcast" over the Internet. If you are interested in viewing the event from the comfort of your own home, tickets for the netcast are available at http://www.botcast.com/live/index.php?event=2 (its cheaper than taking the family to a movie!) We'll post an update after the event to let you know how things went. Don't forget to visit our web site: http://www.bigbangrobotics.com for the latest in robot combat news!
