Zoom - UK Droids MOT talk


With Zoom being THE group video web chatting app in this time of world isolation, club members have been using it to keep in touch with fellow builders around from around the world. I've unfortunately not been available to join in on the last week weekend group chats, the last one which recently happened was a marathon one from around the world!

Well last weekend the R2D2 Droid Builders Club UK hosted a chat about the MOT system for droids here in the UK. The chat covered the aspects of what is required to be cleared for droid and operator to attend events with the club and representing the club.

We had a bout 70/80 people join in to hear Darren, Lee, Sam, Mark, Oliver & myself talk about the reasons why we have the MOT. We had fellow members of the world wide club also in attendance to ask questions and to see if it could be something reproduced in their respective countries.

The Club has a high profile and close links with Disney/Lucas films, attending film premier's and other promotional events. Having your droid & you cleared safe to operate safely to attend events and as such, representing the Club, also means that you are then able to be included with PLI.

So if your a UK builder and want to see and hear about the process, check out the forum at www.astromech.info or on www.droidbuilders.uk or on the clubs Facebook pages, for details on Saturdays Zoom chat, I believe the recorded session will possibly be posted up.....
