This week on the podcast, we’re catching up again with Joe Fabiani, who’s made a name for himself in combat robotics for leaning into unusual and unconventional designs. He’s retiring heavyweight SMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE at the end of the season, and we ask him why, and what’s next.
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.
