Team History

Logan has been passionate about combat robots since we first stumbled across an episode of Battlebots when he was 2.  He never missed an episode until it was cancelled.  He owns almost every toy available and has made hundreds of bots out of Lego’s

For his birthday this year, we went to the Rochester Robot Rampage (R3) and saw real Battlebots live.  It was the highlight of Logan’s life!  After talking to some of the builders in the pits (especially Brady and Logan of Steel Reign fame), we decided to finally attempt building our own antweight bot.  Jerry (SubZero) told us about Builder’s Database where we found a local club (NERC) and went to a competition.  They were really nice and let us look at their bots and answered all our questions.  I joined the forum and building started. 

We first made 2 hacked battlebots toys, one that competed at Pennbots and went 4-2, losing in the quarterfinals.

Our first real bot, an antweight wedge, was Seeking the Truth. It has competed at Robot Battles, Motorama, Pennbots , and House of Nerc.

Our most recent bot is an ant weight undercutter, Fluffy Bunny. Oddly enough Seeking the Truth is the far better bot. Just goes to show you.
