Clgfive & Bryce - Battle #2!

That's right; we really are releasing a new battle! Today our construction process finished and we will be filming the battle on Wednesday. This time there is a catch- we have a third participant! FLL team member Tm4040 is going to be the third member of this battle! So here's how it will work: all three robots will be remote controlled like last time, and will fight using their two weapons which can be switched out in between rounds. The goal will be to push the opponents outside the tape, sort of like a sumo competition. Some early practice rounds have proved that casualties will be high and parts will be flying. The addition of RCX motors has also added a new element. This battle WILL use the green screen we promised last time (we have figured out how to use it) and more surprises. We want to make this one perfect, so it will be released some time next week as long as everything goes well on Wednesday. Sadly I can't set a firm date and time at this point because of problems we had last time. Here are pictures of the three robots, they go in order Clgfive, Bryce, Tm4040.
