This week on the podcast, we’re traveling to Worcester, Massachusetts to take a deep dive on Team WPI, the supergroup whose team members sit on half a dozen BattleBots teams, and have multiple first-place finishes at combat robotics competitions across the country. Their best-known grad in the BattleBots community? Bite Force captain Paul Ventimiglia. We catch up with Brian Boxell, James Nguyen and Ian MacInerney to learn how the team has structured this winning program.

This week’s interview is brought to you by MaxAmps and their new line of “Max Combat” batteries. These battle-ready batteries are available for 1-, 3-, 12-, and 30-pound bots and feature a custom wrap with your team’s logo, internal hard skins for extra protection, and puncture resistant wire sleeves.
