Want to Build a BattleBot? Student Interviews (Part 5 in Multi Part Series)

Описание: Curious how young builders can get started in the world of BattleBots and combat robotics? In this interview, we sit down with a leader from Southern California’s combat robotics community to explore how students can begin designing, building, and competing with their own robots.

From 3D-printed 1 lb “plastic class” bots to full team-based engineering projects, this video breaks down a clear pathway for kids and teens who want hands-on experience in robotics. Learn how organizations like SCAR (Southern California Hack Robotics) are creating opportunities for young engineers through monthly events, design competitions, and builder-designed robot kits that anyone can print and assemble at home.

In This Video:

How students can get started with combat robotics

Why 1 lb plastic fighting robots are perfect for beginners

The value of problem-solving and hands-on engineering

How design competitions help kids learn from real BattleBots builders

The growing community of young robotics creators

How fixing your robot mid-fight builds real engineering skills

Whether you're a young robotics fan, a parent, a teacher, or just someone inspired by BattleBots, this interview shows how accessible—and incredibly fun—robot building can be.
