RoboChallenge have posted a writeup of yesterday's episode of The Gadget Show, in which presenters Jason Bradbury and Ortis Deley were tasked with building the ultimate fighting robot. The Gadget Show robot faced three of the best Featherweights in the country, and although it suffered multiple technical problems throughout the show they emerged victorious in the end, winning two out three fights.
The official writeup can be found on the RoboChallenge website, and you can also see the whole episode on the Gadget Show website.
The Robot Wars episode was warmly received, and within minutes of it airing on Five, the term "Robot Wars" became one of the most popular topics on Twitter! Hopefully the publicity will renew interest in Robot Wars and robot combat.
