WWCC at Maker Faire!
Thanks to everyone who came to see us at Maker Faire! We had a great time, with four battles on Saturday (including a wild night battle) and 2 battles on Sunday. We've taken hundreds of photos and lots of video footage, which we'll be adding in the coming week.
Never heard of robotic warship combat? We build 1/144 scale model warships (WWI and WWII vintages), use balsa wood for armor, arm them with CO2-powered cannons that fire BBs or ball bearings, and go to a lake and try to sink each other.
2007 was filled with fast and sharp boats, and lots of fast action. Thanks to all WWCC members and visitors who have helped to make this year a tremendous one for the ages. Come join us in 2008 (see the Event Calendar for dates) for more RC robotic warship combat action! In the meantime, here is a handful of combat pictures from 2007, and check out the hundreds more photos in our photo gallery.
