For a great resource on learning how to build your own sumo bot, visit the Competitive Mindstorms website. For other building ideas, see this Brickshelf gallery. It contains photos from the Super-Mega-Sumo contest held at Brickfest 2005 in Washington, DC. The weight limit for this contest was 3.5 pounds. Also, photos from the June Texlug sumo contest may be found here. (In the June contest, the weight limit was 2.0 pounds. For this contest, it is 2.5 pounds.) |
