๐ค Design, build, and battle your own combat robot! ๐ค
The Ultimate Week of Engineering and Competition
What Students Will Do
- ๐ Design Their Bot - Plan strategy, weapons, and armor configuration
- ๐ง Build & Fabricate - Cut, drill, and assemble their robot chassis
- โก Wire Electronics - Connect motors, receivers, and power systems
- ๐ฎ Practice Driving - Master the controls before battle day
- ๐จ Iterate & Improve - Test, break, fix, and improve under pressure
- โ๏ธ Battle! - Compete in tournament brackets on the final day
What Students Will Learn
Mechanical Design
How to build strong, lightweight structures that can take a hit and keep moving.
Motor Selection
Matching motors to wheels, weapons, and power budgets for maximum performance.
Strategy & Tactics
Offense vs defense trade-offs, weight distribution, and battle strategies.
Engineering Under Pressure
Fixing problems fast, adapting designs, and performing when it counts.
