Thanks!

[@BOTGRINDER]

yoo thank you!

[@ntfadeaway]

Botgrinder literally bot grinding!

[@nomendubium]

"i promise next time will be fpv" 🤣

[@CORealty]

Keep up the robots, Bart. Fascinating, and I think you should look into that titanium spinner, that was tearing things up.

[@Zescapespj]

Fuck yeah bot. Robot combat is another of my hobbies, I'm working on my first robot now. This content is sick, keep it up bro.

[@slowvoltage]

more of this journey 🙌🏽

[@skyrotfpv]

This is super rad!! Much respect that you actually find the time to build and fight robots on top of making FPV content. 👍😃

[@butchbrown5283]

That was the most interesting and entertaining narration of fighting bots. No one can do it like you.

[@MixedGoku]

You did more than most people so keep up the good work

[@Sek101]

This hobby is a great fit for you! Sheesh, even your handle Botgrinder fits perfectly!

[@djSpinege]

not calling it butt grinder is a missed opportunity

[@RTKdarling]

Good shit Bot, love the variety!

[@helder_uk]

Don't talk yourself down so much man. The stories we tell ourselves become true. You did good, and next time will be better!

[@Joeyzoom]

Hell yeah bro, love this shit!

[@andywakelin1380]

With a YT channel name like BOTGRINDER battle robots is your destiny! Can't wait to see more.

[@cyclops-fpv]

Hell yeah show some more!makes a nice change in the hobby 👍

[@manski209]

Can't wait to see this one Mr. Botgrinder, I'ved built electric skateboards, fpv quads, rc cars and trucks and i was mentioning to my son that my next new project might be a robot. So interesting that this is saturday's topic video.

[@BOTGRINDER]

man this whole process was super fun, definitely look more into it.

[@manski209]

@@BOTGRINDER I will, thank you.

[@andrewsmith1421]

More robots please!

[@HanzDeez]

You make this look easy and I’ve been intrigued before with the ant weight bots. Might just have to build one now. This is cool! Do more of it.

[@AponeFPV]

I never knew they made Battle Bots like this, cool af I would definitely watch more of this 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@RiderLeangle2]

5:01 Glad to see Shul Shagana as an example of a bot that looks like a killing machine, let's ignore I went 0-2 with this version and this might have been my worst version yet. 🤣 But it was great meeting you at the event and a great recap vid here, hopefully you keep going with the sport and come back to MACRO next time around. The community in this sport is definitely welcoming to everyone and willing to help people learn what they need to learn

[@rath3715]

God i wanna see the FPV view of that second match. Getting hit and going flying sounds like some horror footage.

[@tenns]

i recently got an R6 II on sale with a 24-105 f4/L for 2500 CHF, so maybe check around for sales if you're looking for an upgrade this summer.

[@SuperDexterMurphy]

I love Tinkercad. Made dozens of rc and fpv custom parts with it.

[@MrFadjule]

Very cool! What would happen if you used some of your props as weapons? So many to choose from, and so many ways to modify them. I wouldn't bring it up, because they are SO light, but in this weight class you might be able to do something with them. Maybe get some old DALPROP and cut it down some? Maybe 3D props would be sturdy enough? Maybe the ol cyclones that Stew from UAV Futures used to run on all his 5" querds back in the grumpy Trev and crash test Cal days, those have a lot of cord length to their foil. Also: when you got flipped in the match, you probably couldn't drive upside down without your weapon, it was your "shark fin" for "turtle mode". I think your coin, that you give to the winner, is awesome for this (maybe even cooler amongst combat robots than quads, but I guess you could say that they aren't that different...). I'll definitely watch the next video you make about this

[@SiNFPVGUAM]

1:14 Strike a pose!

[@Roboticlay]

FPV Bot fights! Hell Yeah! 🤘🏼

[@TeamJunkYardDog]

Welcome to the Sport!!! We started fighting in 2018 and never looked back!

[@that_jason_black]

Bot. You NEVER have the Best Time. Time has the Best Bot.

[@equipeecureuil6690]

I liked that content, I'd be down for more of combat robot

[@VinydFPV]

Awesome vid bro!! Love anything rc so have at it my friend. I love crazy builds. One of the first drones I got into was the MJX Bugs 3 but now that I'm building and flying 6s drones a 2s line of sight drone isn't that fun sooooo I'm making a 6s Super bugs with all extra parts. In the long run your real friends will follow you no matter what your building because they wanna be involved in whatever Botgrinder is into at the time!!!

[@420menace210]

Show more!!!! I think you were destined to get into this hobby eventually. I mean your name says it all lmao.

[@BradleyThomas]

This was sick, more pls

[@nikodelrey]

I enjoyed this video/competition, would love to see more bots!

[@xyic0re714]

absolutely loved this content! do it more please

[@matred3538]

Great stuff Bot! The fact you're having fun doing it, makes it fun for us to watch. Really looks like a blast. I wish much luck in your future battles. 👍

[@Astrometanomally]

Broooo I love this vid I love the non drone content

[@wheresmynamego1152]

If someone comes to a channel called BOTGRINDER and is mad to see robots grinding and being ground, that’s really a them problem

[@markwilliams5654]

Make it from tpu super strong

[@rayburge1975]

I come to Botgrinders channel to make my day better

[@quad_jake904]

Super kool! Different but very similar; performance vs. Durability.

[@dondupuis4007]

Cool, great you tried it, but having fun is what it's all about.

[@TheMileHighRC]

combat robotics is the reason i got into rc

[@fpvvegan]

Hell yea that was Soo cool literally bot grinder fighting bots

[@LilwickedFpv]

Keep up the great work man luv it keep up the amazing work 😎👊🏽

[@aaron6516]

Love what your doing!! YO real talk you got to be skilled to get into some of this stuff!! Freaking sick man!!

[@Fistful_of_Mana]

I would make a porcupine bot, the quills would jam up their weapons... maybe

[@SkyWranglerFPV]

Let's see more!

[@dannymoore3703]

Love these vids, keep the bot wars coming please

[@brianb9872]

i followed for the woops but bot battles are next level

[@IamDylin]

I'm here for it. More combat bots!

[@offaxisfpv]

great video. i love these combat robots and have been thinking about getting into it as well. this is encouraging. Thnks Bot. keep it goin bud. this is fun

[@rc-fannl7364]

Seeing you do what you like is great content

[@DigitalCruzer]

Looks like good fun!

[@Tygron]

Yoooo. Man i'm gonna have to get into this. I grew up watching BattleBots RobotWars and Robotica and i've been following the current BattleBots shenanis. Been seeing more and more of the NHRL stuff and i'm getting more an more interested, I just haven't had the money to get going yet. Cool to see you're getting into this lol

[@christopherconkright1317]

Why not make it more like a triangle or pyramid so whatever side they ride up it rides into your weapon use their momentum against them.

[@rc.remedy]

Combatgrinder, hell yeah!

[@juhs]

Keep doing this dude, loved it 😁

[@mece66]

Man I just love tinkercad

[@christopherconkright1317]

Also what if when you flip upside down your weapon springs up so thr bottom becomes the top.

[@ElChingonFPV]

That was awesome!

[@anthony-friskettiphoto1008]

Siiiiiick bro!

[@WestVirginiasBigred271]

You should coat your next bot in Epoxy that will make it pretty much indestructible and give it a nice finish plus you can use some epic colors.

[@HILDEGARDO2]

Nice video, i watch you for long time, thats a great new journey ❤ Loved to watch the oldscholl videos of robot fighting some 20 years ago ;-)

[@KingSquiggy]

I love all of this dude! Kinda dig the wide angle if I’m honest. Got me thinking about designing a bot grinder of my own. XD

[@BOTGRINDER]

Oh I def dig the wide angle it's the video quality and color correction on it I don't like compared to my r10.

[@MsStevieWoo]

Haha love it mate!!!! Wish there was a bit league here in McR UK…. I’ve got load of ant weight parts from Bristol battle bots

[@gpaull2]

Don’t underestimate what you can do with Tinkercad.

[@motiv8154]

Whoaaa! That was cool and different 🤘🏽

[@tonomoto]

Do more content on these robots, awesome video! Specially now that you have all kinds of regulations for FPV drones. Good thing you are BOTGRINDER and not BOTGRINDERFPV like everyone does.

[@BallSackFPV]

Dude so love all the innuendoes, man!

[@wizzard0.0]

This is super cool pls make more on this topic. You got to get your first win 🏆 💪 💯

[@EridaniOpsCG]

Dude, I think Im going to switch my channel from 3D design to robot battles after watching this lol

[@darrensontos1012]

Bring on the robots!

[@SchubertTech]

Welcome Tinker Kaos, I hereby welcome my new overlord :) I'm the same, I have a 3D printer but no idea how to create stuff from CAD. I've gone through "intro CBTs" but the software never 100% follows their screen shot instructions and I get stuck pretty soon. I like the robot content because it's really not that different than what FPV does. Build, brief moments of exhilarating joy, crash, rebuild, repeat... we just fly in the air (hopefully... that's the goal at least : ). I would just suggest maybe make it "FPV like" for your content by putting a little camera and VTX on it, and put that video in the KZbin video. You did it for the miniwoop, why not TinkerKaos-woop?

[@HITMAN-POWMIA]

Love it looked like fun and that’s what it’s about

[@FPVOnMyNimbus]

What is the song at about 12:30? While you were WHOOPIN’ it up!

[@BOTGRINDER]

the artist is spark master tape

[@henrybennett3645]

@botgrinder what’s this song? 12:21

[@semadragun]

Would LOVE a 3D printer..ah one day. Love robot stuff please keep them coming Bot, would love to see an actual build video of one of these.😎

[@P8FPV]

I used to watch robot wars years ago basically the same thing just bigger...this is cool bro..time to make something low with spinners on all sides made from the toughest fillerment you can buy 😊

123d design is a useful, simple modeling program

Great vid! Hey how can I find out when the next FVP event in the NY/NJ/PA area like the LI Bando event a few weeks ago?

[@BOTGRINDER]

Flyhighfpv.com has an events list on his site for the larger ones but the rest are pretty much just word of mouth. Philly meet up end of summer.
