Hey Stince, Yeah its a bloody great idea we still have some fine tuning to do but essentially there are four sensor pads, two for each side its a 12 min game and gives you 1 min between activating the first sensor to activating the second sensor which are displayed by a red or blue led for the game win these times can be adjusted also. Which ever team activates both flags in the given time it plays there appropriate song, it also bows a whistle and plays an air raid sound to start the game and blows a whistle to end the game if no team has activated both sensors. It can also be used to count how many of each team returns to there respective base during a timed battle and the calculates the winner. If you guys are interested I will keep you informed of how we go, we hope to make it an available kit that other clubs can purchase.
Cheers Ken
