What is Robot Wars?

Robot enthusiasts and builders prepare yourselves!

BEEES hosted their 11th Robot Wars competition on the 30th of November 2019 and are inviting you to either compete or spectate for this latest instalment.
“Wow that’s great what’s it gonna cost us to spectate/compete?”
I hear you say, well it’s FREE to do both!

(There is a £10 deposit on transmitter & receiver, although these are optional they are recommended for beginners! )
