Even though the show is gone, robotic combat is still alive in tournaments across the US and Europe. Battle robots are divided into weight classes. Most of the ones that used to be on TV were heavywieghts which tipped the scales at over 220lbs. Now, the most popular weight classes for combat robots are the 150g, 1lb, and 12lb weight classes. I have been building battle robots for over a year in the 150g and 1lb class. My newest design features a sharpened titanium bar spinning at 10,000 rpm. Does anyone here build combat robots?
