Bristol Bot Builders return to the New Bristol Brewery for more robot fighting, everyone is welcome to compete or spectate. Spooking your bots is encouraged. We fight robots for a laugh, typically with a pint in a pub so we consider BBB events to be 'pub robotics' Facebook event: facebook.com/events...

Hi! Thanks for the kind comments guys. (Director/Editor here )

Putting on a show helped encourage more unique/varied builds and like you say beetleweight is a great class to build at.

We'd like to do another series sometime hope that interests you!

Thanks all, glad you enjoyed it. There were some fantastic robots and fights and you were all very patient with the quick turn arounds between fights :) See you all soon at more events I'm sure. Not to self promote *too much* but if Bristol isn't too far from home for you, we're doing an ant social ...

Hey Jeff,

Wow from Scotland! Impressive!!

The closer to 9am the better as we have to get through a lot of bot tech checks before we can start the fights.

I'd say bring an extension lead / 4 way plug, apart from that you seem good to go!

Joe
