Many of us found our love for robotics by participating in FIRST Robotics Competition — Now, we’re proud to give back by mentoring teams and supporting the next generation of innovators at the FIRST Championships! John, George, and Bam - along with many other BattleBots competitors - are at the event this week supporting teams and giving talks!

To all the students out there - dream big and don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something! We’re here to support you along the way and can’t wait to see the amazing things you create! 😍

Kablooey Tango is fighting once again — but this time as a sportsman 30lb in Seattle… with a sawblade weapon!

As usual, it puts on a good show by making tons of sparks! 💥

We joined the “group of death”. We moved across the country. We had a brand new driver. We lost our first fight. We caught on fire 2 hours before our last fight. And against all odds...we walked away with the Giant Washer! Just one more piece of hardware to get the Triple Crown!

We are so proud of what our team has accomplished at BattleBots FaceOffs. Thank you so much to BattleBots for giving us the opportunity to fight again, and to our wonderful competitors, Tombstone - BattleBots, HyperShock, and Orbitron / The Hacksmith.

Thanks to our sponsors, without which we would never have been able to get this far: Hai Robotics, Online Metals, Onshape by PTC, SendCutSend, Hasselgren Engineering, and LuigiFan00001.

And of course, thank you to all of our fans for believing in us throughout all our ups and downs! We continue to compete on BattleBots because of you, and BattleBots would not exist without you. We hope you’ll see more of us soon!
