A competition for Wicksted 2013
« on: February 16, 2013, 10:06:55 pm »
How about silliest RC floaty thing


rules are simple, RC a household object (the sillier the better) and complete 2 laps of a simple course on the lake


For example I thought of a jet drive toilet brush (unused obviously) :)


What do you guys think?


visitors cans then vote for the best one with a small prize for the winner (supplied by myself)

We do have to design a course, so if anyone has any clever elements they would like to see
in the steering course, post them here!   :-))
