This footage was provided by the wonderful SWORD club at the Pennsylvania College of Technology in Williamsport, PA, where this competition was held. All footage was recorded on November 6th, 2021 during the semi-annual SWORD combat robotics competition. The robots competing here were either 1lb Antweights or 3lb Beetleweights. All Beetleweight fights were 3 minutes in length but Antweight fights were 2 minutes in length. Antweights were a double elimination bracket- lose twice and you're out. Beetleweights are hard to explain. Each robot got to fight in three 3-way battles, and based on their performance, the top 12 robots were seeded into a single-elimination final for the event winner title.

Division, my 3-pound Beetleweight Combat Robot with an oversized vertical spinner, has just competed at the most recent Norwalk Havoc tournament. Norwalk Havoc has always had a number of competitive robots, but this time was exceptional - 51 robots in all from all across the country came to compete, all following the local COVID guidelines which required getting a negative test before coming in from out of state or staying under 24 hours. The pits were fully outdoors due to the pandemic with the bear minimum number of people inside by the arena at a time, and masks were worn at all times. Norwalk Havoc has an unbelievable quality livestream for the entire event on Youtube, and I highly recommend you all subscribe to their Youtube channel, linked down below. Their view counts are what help them keep the event completely free to enter, so you’ll be doing all of us a favor by subscribing and watching their videos! The full 12 hour stream is up but in the coming weeks every single fight will be uploaded one by one, so subscribe there to relive each match as they happened without needing to sift through all the breaks in between.
