Hello all! I have some fun robot related news to share. Last weekend I went to Build Fight Fun in Tallahassee and GOT FIRST PLACE WITH FLUORINE!!!

I honestly did not expect this at all, I figured Fluorine would go 3-2 at best and lose in spectacular fashion. I don't really have the words to describe how happy I am about this.

I've been working on Fluorine in various forms for over 3 years, and it makes me happy to finally see the robot performing as well as it has been.

Here are some more pics I took at the event showing some more of the damage I dished out

Robot combat is a mode of robot competition in which two or more custom-built machines use varied methods to incapacitate or expel rival robots. The machines have generally been remote-controlled vehicles rather than autonomous robots.

Hi everyone! I had some fun news to share. I appeared in a local magazine where I talked about my experience with BattleBots and robot combat! Figured I'd share the article here so you could read it if you like!

Well I went to the Florida State Fair Frenzy yesterday and ended up going 2-2 overall. Not exactly my best performance, but I was a good learning experience. Fluorine's new disc performed really well, causing some major damage to its opponents. Fluorine also ended the event in better shape than normal, I only had to replace the power switch and a gearbox. Everything else was fully functional after the event was over. Expect very few differences for the next iteration of Fluorine. #robotcombat #battlebots #halogen #fighting #chaos (at Florida State Fairgrounds) Fight Links https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUt6DKfV43okGbbXcvDzIuKY8d3xP4cOI https://www.instagram.com/p/Co3XiduLmg1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Welp, Robot Ruckus has ended and i ended up going 2-2 with Fluorine and 1-1 with Chloride. Fluorines new spinner worked very well, doing a lot of damage to my opponents. I already have a lot of improvements in mind to fix the issues I had with it during the event. Chloride through, well let's just say that this version of Chloride is getting retired. However I am excited to announce that I am currently building Chloride mk2. I hope to make the new version a lot easier to maintain than the old one. Overall I had a lot of fun at this event and I hope to return to come back and do better next time. Also congrats to @gator_battlebots for taking first place in BOTH INSECT WEIGHT CLASSES. I hope I can replicate that success soon! #robotcombat #halogen #robotruckus #combatrobotics #chloride #fluorine #spinner #horizontal (at Central Florida Fair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CktuB0RPm67/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The upgraded Fluorine has been completed! The weapon angle has been reduced while still keeping it hitting low. This means that the bot won't flip itself over when it hits things. Hopeful Fluorine can now start to live up to its reactive namesake! #halogen #robotcombat #fluorine #chaos (at University of Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiwFT2Ir2bV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Well day 1 of Robot Ruckus 2022 has concluded. I did fairly ok all things considered. Fluorine is currently 2-0, putting on a decent performance in both of its fights and doing a lot of damage! Chloride fared a lot worse. It got absolutely demolished in its rematch with Big G. I lost 2 gearboxes, 2 wheels and an esc. I had to buy a new but different model of esc to replace it. Thankfully I was able to get Chloride back into shape. So I hope that my successes will continue tomorrow! #robotcombat #robot #halogen #fluorine #chloride #horizontal #spinner #robotruckus (at Central Florida Fair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkmUnsvrIcb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Here is a video of the new Fluorine being tested.

BEHOLD THE NEW AND IMPROVED FLUORINE!!! After several months of development and a week of the robot just refusing to work, I would like to proudly introduce the newest version of Fluorine's kinetic variant. Features: -Better weapon placement for increased stability and more optimal strikes against opponents -More powerful weapon motor for better hots in general -Longer and shorter chassis both for ease of putting the electronics in and so that it can still be effective while upside down -More vibrant color scheme Overall this is a lot better than the... previous iteration of Fluorine's spinner variant. I hope that it along with the wedge config will bring me great success in the antweight division. #robot #robotcombat #halogen #fluorine #spinner #destruction #custom #battlebots (at Gainesville, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjjooT5LbAp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
