\"Test<\/p>\n

Test Bot 4.5 is the latest iteration in long line of bot designs going back all the way to Test Bot 1.0, which gave the “team” a name. It is an ultra-low profile pusher and lifter with a 30 degree aluminum wedge encircling its front side and a fast 4-bar linkaged-based lifting arm. The bot was constructed to compete in the 12-pound RFL<\/a> class as well as the BattlebotsIQ<\/a> 15-pound Mini class under the “Media Center Edition” upgrades.<\/p>\n

For 2008, the “Service Pack” upgrades will improve the bot’s durability, especially against kinetic energy weapons, and reliability. The bot will still compete as a 12-pound class bot with optional attachments to fight in the 15 pound class.<\/p>\n
