Combat Robot Specification
To compete in the intra-school and outside ant-weight competitions, your robot must meet the following criteria:
- Weigh less than 1 lb (16 oz)--Duh
- Have an easily accessible "switch" that can accessed without taking the robot apart in the event an emergency
- Have its lithium ion battery enclosed within the robot (aka we shouldn't be able to see it!)
- Demonstrate control over the robot and its functions and show it stops when disconnected from the controller
