Getting set for a big race in Las Vegas with .rc and , this is about 246 pounds smaller that we are used to, but should still be fun. Maybe we should swing by the arena too. 🤔

Over the last couple of weeks, you’ve met the people behind the machines.

The captain who’s been doing this for 26 years.
The builders who turn wild ideas into real robots.
The champion driver who finishes the fights.
The engineers who design, machine, and program the machines.
The storytellers who bring the energy.
The families raising the next generation of robot drivers.

Different backgrounds.
Different skills.
Different stories.

But every one of them shows up with the same goal.
To build something powerful enough…tough enough…
and a little crazy enough…to shake the arena.

Because robots don’t build themselves.

It takes late nights in the shop. Last-minute repairs in the pits. Friends, families, and teammates who are willing to put in the work long before the lights turn on.

This is the team behind Magnitude.
*Builders
*Drivers
*Storytellers
*Problem solvers
*Families

All coming together for the same reason. Robot combat, and if you’ve been following along through this series… You’re part of the story now too.

MEET THE TEAM☄️

Many builders get their start in robot combat through school programs. For Trevor Sommer, that journey began with the Plum High School BotsIQ team.

After high school, Trevor took a break from competitions while studying Mechanical
Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh.

But robot combat has a way of pulling people back in. Since graduating, Trevor has returned to the arena competing at NHRL while working professionally as a designer for fire protection sprinkler systems. His job is literally focused on preventing disasters.

Robot combat… allows a little more flexibility, but even the best engineered robots need someone ready to grab a wrench when things break.

MEET THE TEAM☄️

If you’ve ever been to a robot combat event, you know that fights are only half the experience. Part of what makes events exciting is the energy and storytelling around them.

For years, CJ DeSheik and Lindsay Summer were two of the voices that helped bring that excitement to life
as combat robotics announcers. These days, they help support Team Magnitude through design, branding, and creative work.

Though they aren't turning wrenches, they're putting their stamp on the bot in other ways. Chris, in particular, has a reputation for two things - creating epic movie-style posters and building robots that tend to be…very large. Meanwhile, Lindsay is one of the best
bakers we have ever met. Carbs help keep the team going!

Between them, they’ve spent more than 10 years shaping the atmosphere of robot combat events. But behind every robot team there are also engineers quietly making sure the machine actually works...

MEET THE TEAM☄️

Combat robotics has always been a sport that families share. For Max Brady, that’s exactly how he got involved.

Max competes with fairyweight robots, the smallest class in robot combat! While they are tiny machines, they still pack plenty of chaos.

By day, Max is a lead CNC machinist and programmer, meaning if a robot part needs to be machined from metal, he’s the guy who can make it happen.

Outside the shop, he also enjoys autocross and track racing - speed is clearly a theme.

But the real energy in the Brady pit crew might be Bo.
Bo brings the hype, the enthusiasm, and the kind of energy every pit crew needs. Of course, building robots is one thing.

Telling the story of the team is another...
