I doubt it would do well in Battle Bots, heheh.
I was going to say something bout the inventors' photo being a prototype for computer geeks; then I relaized they were English.
Isn't there a Monty Python battle strategy of "Run away!"
That's my alma-mater. The guys who did this are only about 14 or 15 years old !

Yes, it used to be run on Technogames and looked quite impressive. The model that was really *weird* to watch in action, though, was the little motorcyclist. I'm still not sure how they made that work!
Cute, but not (what most folk here would call) a robot. It's remote-controlled, it doesn't balance itself. It also drives through a freewheel hub, which means it can't reverse.
