House of NERC ! Competing with the big boys RoboKnight made a respectable show winning 2 out of 3 before having to leave early.

Dancer the Beetleweight Drumbot

Dancer was the name Eion chose for our next bot, a Beetleweight (3 lb.) with an active weapon. This is our first attempt at building a bot with an active (i.e. may do serious damage if all goes well). Presently we've just had RoboKnight with a lifter.

At the moment Dancer is little more than a box full of parts and a CAD drawing. Look in this space for build reports.
