A fairly quick history of flying robots (colloquially drones) in robot combat. I will be interested to here what your opinions are on some of the topics discussed! Thanks for watching.

Than July so much I love this
In short beware of rakes
I think an important thing is that its not an “open” competition.
So of anyone showed up planning to use a drone swarm as their bot, producers could just say “no thank you”.
Which makes the rules a little more a matter of intent then exact letter.
I can’t find your email?
If I could give a little bit of advice, perhaps turn down the audio of the clip you’re talking over. Other than that, great video!
Wow I’ve never seen footage of SPS2 in action, only the famous black and white image. Awesome!
Don’t forget spitfire being chewed and spit out by the screws in 2018
Splatter was a vasquez family bot first it’s weapon lifts and second there’s Matt on the right
Wow, what a different video other than copy & paste.
I think subzero has the only drone in the competition, everyone else just ditch it. It was only big in 2016 because drones in general was trending that time. Now after realizing how useless it is, pretty much no more.
Drones seems to be unstable enough to be effective in fight. It is very satisfying for me to see how they are dropped to arena and grounded.
Your bounty hunter videos get the most views, can you post some more please?
Imagine a giant drone grappler that picks up the opposing bot, flies to the top of the arena, then drops them
Thx for the shoutout.
ngl. I kinda wish there was drone that kind of shoots from below on the enemy.
RIP Spitfire
Cause of death : shredded by the screws
This was a very interesting video thank you for making it and showing the old battlebots fights keep up the great work
What footage of SPS2 is a god sent. I’ve never heard of it before and was great to see in action.
imagine starting out the vid trying to make a comment on geopolitical events .. whilst being of the bri’ish garb lol ohh wahapend to yall’s robot wars?? must have been too awesome.
Who got a RAKE?
