Just watching the New Year's Eve Robot Wars program, I
wonder how feasible would it be to for us as a discussion group
to design and enter a robot?

eg, Peter Fairbrother seems to be an expert on hard wearing metals.

Not "Robots" but "Remote Control Devices" surely?

How nice to have some discussion of the issue.

I think this ends the discussion about making radio control "robots".

With the development of humanoid bodies capable of picking
themselves off the floor, perhaps the next stage should
be robot gladiators?

After all, there are already robot footballers.
