Is there anyone to help me build a robot?
We are very keen to encourage as many people as possible to get involved with engineering and the show. However building a combat robot is a complex and dangerous undertaking, robot wars cannot offer assistance in building your robot and any build is undertaken at your own risk.
We advise that teams have safety as their first priority, be exceptionally careful and take adequate safety precautions at every stage of the build. If it is your first time building a robot it is advisable to discuss your plans and building process with the wider robot building community.
