I just came across a great pair of reads in the form of two articles written by a BattleBots builder. His team's bot is quite innovative and it's great reading his workup of the control system.

The second article isn't finished because he's not allowed to announce if he won or not until the show airs later this year. I wish him post-competition luck!
