Bot-a-rang better upside down?
Check out this cool 30-pounder match between our Bot-a-rang and a pneumatic flipper. The only time Will really gets the sparks to fly with our weapon, is when Bot-a-rang is upside down.

New Lifter Arm!
Hi Everyone, check out the new lifter arm we received from Big Blue Saw. They water-cut the arm (but I drilled the smaller holes myself).

Remembering our First Battle Bot Competition - 2016
Just reminiscing about our very first battlebots competition. It was NERC at the Franklin Institute in October 2016. Man, that seems so long ago. It was a pretty bad showing for our team; we showed up with toys, basically, and got whupped pretty quick. Our advice to newcomers: learn from every experience and never give up!
 |
| Here's what we brought to the fight; just some robot kits with tie-plates from Home Depot. |
 |
| Will was just 8 years old, but drove both of our bots. |
 |
| We toured some of Philly's attractions while we were there. |
