Designed for aggressive control and relentless impact, Exhilarator 3.0 combines a compact low-profile chassis with a high-torque front drum weapon engineered for destructive striking power. Its wide wheelbase delivers excellent traction and stability, while the TPU armour layout helps absorb heavy impacts during close-contact battles. 3.0 has been…
Anteater was developed as a more refined 150g Antweight build, directly shaped by the lessons learned from previous robots. Earlier issues such as unnecessary aluminium weight and the drawbacks of using a front caster were addressed, leading to a more focused and efficient design. The robot was built…
Designed as a simple and safe introduction to combat robotics, Spike was built as a flipper robot with a strong focus on reliability, control and ease of use. It followed a classic wedge-style layout, a design I’ve always appreciated for its simplicity and effectiveness in controlling engagements. The…
Designed as a step forward from the original build, Exhilarator 2.0 focused on improving strength, drive performance and overall reliability. The chassis and armour were reworked using 10mm HDPE, providing far better impact resistance compared to the previous aluminium base and 5mm HDPE, allowing for a more forgiving…
FlippAnt was introduced as a prebuilt 150g Antweight flipper from Nuts & Bots, giving me a solid starting point within the class while still allowing room for modification and improvement. Named to combine the flipper weapon style with the Antweight category, it followed a simple and effective approach…
Mini Spinny Jr was built as a dedicated 150g Antweight for my daughter, giving her her own robot to compete with while continuing to build alongside the rest of the team. Designed to be simple, effective and fun to use, it focused on introducing key combat robotics principles…
Designed as my first step into combat robotics, Exhilarator was built with a focus on simplicity, durability and learning the fundamentals of robot design. With no prior experience, the aim was to create a solid, functional machine that could compete while helping me understand how different systems work…
Designed as my first entry into the 150g Antweight class, Exhilarant was a new challenge focused around extreme weight and size constraints. In addition to the strict weight limit, the robot also had to fit within a 100mm cube, requiring a highly compact layout where every component had…
