Competing with his D2 robot "Mini Puma" in the beetleweight division of the Brazilian Robocore Winter Challenge, Marco won out over 58 other beetles, going 7-0 in his fights.  Marco's overall record with his D2 is 24-2, a testament to Marco's excellent driving skills.  Congratulations Marco! Here's a great video of one of Marco's fights on the way to winning.  His D2 with the Wolverine claws performed well versus an aggressive drum spinner.  We even get to see how well the D2 with Wolverine claws works when inverted!  https://youtu.be/JfU2hQDv5oY

After months of testing prototypes in combat events around the USA, we are proud to announce the release of the Wolverine attachment for the D2 combat robot kit!  This attachment is designed to combat other wedge bots and drum/eggbeater style spinning weapons (still use the wedge for other opponents!).  With multiple wins from combat events with the prototypes, we are confident this new weapon will increase the competitiveness of your D2 kit!

Morgan Penick racks up yet another victory with his D2 combat robot at the Northwest Model Hobby Expo in Monroe, Washington.  Congratulations Morgan!

Another solid D2 victory, as Mark Elam goes undefeated in the Beetleweight division at Robot Battles 62 in Chattanooga Tennessee.  Congratulations Mark!

Lots of requests for videos from the fights.  Overall, the D2 did very well.  The last fight still came down to a judges decision.  Per the driver: "Here are all of the fights. Fight #2 damaged my 4c Li-p, I was actually lucky it did not burst into flame, after that I went to the back up 3c. With some driving practice I think I will do quite well next time – most likely at Robo Games." #1- https://youtu.be/_wVlB134fpQ?list=PLY36rcBTdCHXrpmkUo3R-F5LKrXqI65ZP   #2 - https://youtu.be/m0oI1WBzf14?list=PLY36rcBTdCHXrpmkUo3R-F5LKrXqI65ZP #3 - https://youtu.be/xuLOtSz8j1w?list=PLY36rcBTdCHXrpmkUo3R-F5LKrXqI65ZP #4 - https://youtu.be/WpEnq5zbg1E?list=PLY36rcBTdCHXrpmkUo3R-F5LKrXqI65ZP #5 - https://youtu.be/xv1fos9oTyk?list=PLY36rcBTdCHXrpmkUo3R-F5LKrXqI65ZP #6 - https://youtu.be/Y5HxMCWMYtc?list=PLY36rcBTdCHXrpmkUo3R-F5LKrXqI65ZP
