"So I decided to celebrate by doing something fun with my friends. I downloaded Solidworks..." 💀💀💀
My friends are nerds okay
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff thoughts on Onshape and f360?
ONSHAPE FOR LIFE! I used fusion briefly for some small project before, but switched to solidworks bc my friends who helped me get the first antweight together were solidworks purists. Since then, they have all converted to onshape after building a 250lb sponsored by onshape, and i made the switch too after losing a beetleweight CAD to corrupted files.

Please keep up your work, I feel there just aren’t enough of this genre of video in the hobby
Honestly shocking a 3d printed spinner doesn't just explode
Nah they do. Initially the drum on V2 was printed on a 0.4mm nozzle and immediately chipped when testing. In the actual competition i swapped it for one printed with a 0.8mm nozzle and it lasted like 4 fights
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff That's still way better than I would expect. It just feels like it would immidiately be disasterous.
I had an esp kill my laptop in exactly the same fashion. RIP to all the unfortunate PCs out there.
For real! And at least i'm not the only one to make this mistake. I'm still somewhat surprised thus was able to happen given all the hubbub over USB killers.
i add myself to the gang! fried hdd and serial capabilities on usb but laptop was fine, luckily it was an old one but that's why i put an extra diode on my custom esp pcb for robot combast, i don't want 3s to go into my pc usb ever again
I’ve just been learning ESP and this is handy to know about
thank fuck I’ve been powering mine via the same USB C connection I use for the battery pack or I’d have definitely made this oopsie
Aye, nearly done that myself as well, dumped 12V directly into the my laptop's USB port. However, and somehow, either the USB port had some safety protection system or my reaction time was fast enough to unplug it before it caused permanent damage, but my computer somehow survived. My work didn't because the computer instantly shut down when I plugged in the ESP32 but I'm just happy that I still have a working laptop.
Lesson learned, unplug any external power supply from the microcontroller before plugging it into the computer. Also, don't upload code at 3AM.
On an slightly unrelated note, don't try computer repairs at 3AM either. Dropped a screwdriver and fried whatever controlled the backlight of the LCD on the very same laptop and I thought I killed it... until it decided, "nah I'll live", and miraculously came back to life like nothing ever happened. I... don't know how that laptop is still working, there was a SMD on the motherboard that's now just a burnt smudge... but it still works? Somehow?
It's just, built different I guess. idk.
why does y'all esp doesnt have protection diode??
i love the content, both this and the laser video! your editing is hilarious, and the content is genuinely fascinating. great work; i hope the algorithm picks you up soon!
Holy crap it's my first repear commenter who isn't someone i know personally
man this was really fun to watch, usually not the biggest fan of the big meme edits, but I had no idea antweight robot wars was a thing - very fun to find out about through your story telling
Wait until you see beetleweights
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuffantweights are 1 pounders and beetleweaights are three pounders, right?
This editing style is beautiful- love the energy here💛💛💛 Welcome to the madness~
My wallet will never forgive me. Also probably my lungs, given all the unhappy fumes of plastic welding.
I feel that( -w-‘ )
Now make it metal
This might be one of the greatest videos I've ever seen, for a variety of reasons, not the least of which are combat robots. I'm adding this lifestyle to my life ...now.
Next thing you know you'll be out $3k on an NHRL 30lb robot after fighting emulsifier
It's good to see another fellow SOLIDWORKs pain train enjoyer in the wild.
Since making this robot i have been converted to onshape
Great video on robot design. It's great to see people being inspired by the Sgt Cuddles design. I bought the original Sgt Cuddles from Robert Cowan years ago and I have rebuilt in a few times but the biggest issue with that design was balancing that drum and not high-siding on the floor and losing traction, also there is very little purchase with that titanium drum, so that rake angle thing is quite important too. Welcome to the hobby! it only gets worse when you get to Beetleweights and Featherweights at the NHRL level.
NO WAY! It's awesome to be acknowledged by someone who has handled Sgt Cuddles! And yea i have had issues of ground clearance - you can see in the v1 fight the robot is barely driving. Also I didn't show it but the my v2 had an earlier chassis iteration where it basically didnt drive due to both ground clearance and the wheels being all the way in the back, behind both the battery AND the drum. I have destroyed that chassis in my first test of the fixed version
Great video! Loved the combat and the humor.
I'm not sure if it's the same thing, but I had a similar controller disconnect issue with my ant weight (also using an ESP32 and bluetooth controller). The issue turned out to be the boot button on the microcontroller. Sometimes big hits would cause the button to trigger, the board to reboot, and the controller to disconnect until I went through the pairing process again. Other times it would still think the controller was connected, but wouldn't accept input until I fully shut down and re-paired the controller. As a short term fix, a big glob of hot glue on the button worked great!
THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE! What you're describing is basically what happened. I didn't show it, but in that final grudge where the drum split, the same thing happened where it died and couldn't accept input. We opened the box, power cycled, and just as you described, it came back to life.
I have no interest in combat robots, but youtube served me this since I've been watching 3D printing videos.
Good video.
Nice teaser at the end!, Subbed
i dearly enjoy the airplane transitions during the battle showcases
The action movie fx airplane is a perfect screenwipe tbh
The inexplicable Mechanicus urge to build a doomba comes for us all. You do the Omnissiah proud, techpriest.

Man I’ve been trying to get my school to set up a combat robotics team for a couple years, you guys are so lucky
Tragic this hasn’t gotten more views keep up the good content and slightly informational it’s very fun!
Everyone says i need more views but honestly i'm shocked i cracked 5k
Kyle this is awesome!!! Your editing style is so engaging, and such excellent commentary as always!
this video is incredible. youtube recommendations rare W
keep up the solid work man, you're very entertaining and i'm lookin forward more goofy aah engineering content
I regret to inform you i have given up on solid work in order to become a disciple of on shape
Man this was a good video, especially given how new your channel is! Keep it up man. Looking forward to a new video!
i wish my school had a combat robotics club
we only have an FRC team right now
the floor letter word censor - yep, subscribing
YES! SOMEONE NOTICED!
Congrats man,the drum ended up lookin pretty good,you did good work w it and soon you’ll be making beetles and competing at NHRL like the lot of us,but welcome to the sport man
You say that as if i haven't already started my beetle
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff you have? What is it gonna be
@@chriscapps206 there's a pic way buried in the NHRL discord somewhere. it could be described as...
- legally distinct fully defined
- a combine harvester
- a quadisk
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff that’s pretty cool,you sign up for April or what NHRL you planning on signing up for
@@chriscapps206 Signed up for April NHRL. The robot is basically complete (spinup before signup) but there's a few things that aren't quite fight ready that i need to sort out.
Thank you; I wish you good fortune
If I don't see a Wiimote control scheme within the NHRL in the next year I riot
Get ready to not riot
"TWIN BEAST?" That was so funny
I should make "who cares? twin beast" a reality
holy shit algo is gonna throw you to the moon, and im here to see it
Algo or algo not. There is no algtry
Here in one college in South Africa, we have a battle bot battle that last about 2 weeks a year and aily practice whole year
Never heard of it - yall stream online?
Your channel might just be in the midst of being lifted out of obscurity by the algorithm right now and I'm all here for it
Maybe? You're like the fourth commenter to make this claim
You put waayyy too much time and effort into editing this video to only have 1.06K subscribers, but you just got another one outta me! Great video and congrats on getting into the hobby! I've always wanted to get into it myself but I ended up going down the information security route and 3D printing as a hobby instead... 😅
If an electrical engineer can do this then an infosec person can do it too - 3d printing is super easy to get into so long as you don't touch anything with the words "creality" and "ender3"
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff oh, I'm already knee deep in 3D printing (built my own RepRap Prusa Mendel over a decade ago 🥴, had a stint with an Ender 3 Pro that still produces decent results, but my X1 Carbon is my daily driver these days), it's just translating it to functional designs that would hold up in a fight is where I'm less confident. 😅
I can do very basic stuff in Fusion 360, but it's still an uphill battle for me at the moment. Regardless, I appreciate the encouragement and maybe I'll be fighting you in robot combat in a decade when I finally get the knack for it! 🤣
The editing is a lot of fun. May the youtube algo take this to the moon
Great video quality. I hope the rest of your videos are just as good.
Idk just don't watch the first one
I was most curious to see how the WiiMote was used to control Who Cares. You could probably get absolutely silly and map tilt controls to a throttle somewhere...
Nunchuk is drive, B is 1/3 weapon throttle, A is 2/3 weapon throttle, A+B is max weapon throttle. The wiimote itself only has an accelerometer, so anything more than waggle controls are infeasible with the amount of effort i was willing to put in (even then i struggled to get super fine control). Wii motion plus adds a gyro for actually usable tilt controls. I should figure out how to use it...
I don't understand any of this, the algortihm advises I am a nerd so recommended this, the editing and humour is goddam awesome!
Hah nerd!

Humour (Commonwealth English) or humor (American English) is the tendency of experiences to provoke laughter and provide amusement. The term derives from the humoral medicine of the ancient Greeks, which taught that the balance of fluids in the human body, known as humours (Latin: humor, "body fluid"), controlled human health and emotion.
People of all ages and cultures respond to humour. Most people are able to experience humour-be amused, smile or laugh at something funny (such as a pun or joke)-and thus are considered to have a sense of humour. The hypothetical person lacking a sense of humour would likely find the behaviour to be inexplicable, strange, or even irrational. Though ultimately decided by subjective personal taste, the extent to which a person finds something humorous depends on a host of variables, including geographical location, culture, maturity, level of education, intelligence and context. For example, young children may favour slapstick such as Punch and Judy puppet shows or cartoons such as Tom and Jerry or Looney Tunes, whose physical nature makes it accessible to them. By contrast, more sophisticated forms of humour such as satire require an understanding of its social meaning and context, and thus tend to appeal to a more mature audience.
is there a reason everyone’s drive controls seem so sensitive? it feels like a person could go far just having better control over their robot
Plastic antweights don't drive particuarly well compared to other weight classes, at least the ones i've seen. But also what you are describing is a control bot those do exist
this is such a banger video and I don't even participate in this kinda stuff :D
Subbed before you go into the thousands. Good luck.

Shout out to that FUCKING SICK lego Audi Quattro on your desk!
That's actually my dresser lol
Thumbnail looked like dankpods so I clicked it. No regrets
As a massive dankpods fan i didn't realize what i did with the thumbnail until a few hours after i uploaded
very underrated channel. subbed also cool robots lol
I've never seen a SNES fight robots before.
I've thought of it as looking like a wii personally, which btw was completely accidental
This was a very funny video. I’m surprised the Wii system preformed as well as it did.
It worked until it didn't. I have ideas on how to improve it...
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff Please tell, Im considering using a wii controller for my upcoming project but do not know how to start. Im completely new with no experience and have an arduino laying around. Do you think the bluetooth module would worK or is the esp good? I dont have a arduino bluetooth module and all my parts are savaged. I'd really appreciate a reply.
1:47 I lost it hahahahahaha amazing video
That was definitely one of the nore unhinged things i've done in the editing room
Loving the vibe bro. Instant sub
Honestly shocked to see you only have 600ish subs
I had 97 when this was uploaded and still don't know what happened since
seems like you have a knack for it, keep it up bro you def got another sub@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff
this is underrated
3:55 don't forget to ahhhh combine them!!!
Iirc the merge scope of sone early feature was out of wack so one of the uprights was a separate body from the rest of the chassis. At the time I had no idea merge scope was a thing so I just added that feature there to fix it.
your video presentation, flow, pacing, and editing is too good for a channel your size. Where did you get all this practice?
The rest of my videos is where i got practice. Also learning from osmosis from watching other videos, i guess
That makes two EEs I've heard of fubaring a laptop like that. (I'm a CS)
Tell the other one who got got to the join the other commenters who claim to have gone through this misery
This is so GOOD!!
Oh my god it's genuinely the real PCBway
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff The ONLY! Do more uploads pls!
I think most combat robots are too good. I think a junkyard war style combat robot thing would be fun. Two teams are given a weekend to build each of their robots out of the scraps provided or something.
you can try to add screws to the weapon so it will do more damage
edit: practice your drive
What you are describing is a metal weapon, since you are adding metal screws as impactors. You see this on some beetleweight kits like fingertech beater bars, but no reasonable event organizer would allow such a design in a *plastic* antweight bracket. Even if it was legal, i'd have to manually balance the weapon by fiddling with the screws such that it doesnt shake violently when spinning, a task which doesnt seem appealing especially given the limited repair time deep into a tournament.
Loved the video!
That's pretty dammed awesome!!
How did you learn do this stuff
Trial/error, online tutorials, and talking to more knowledgable people can get you so so far you have no idea
@@KylesMaybeElectricalStuff also did you use the Wii chuck library
@@zed_2ed929 nah. The wii remote itself is just a bluetooth device, so I had an ESP32 inside the robot that it connects to. Someone made a library to do this which I used, though it takes a small modification to get it to work. I keep meaning contribute my fix to github but I keep forgetting to
github.com/hrgraf/ESP32Wiimote
Dune, that is insane, i also made my robot inspired by that same video, and i also used an esp32 in my case adapted into an old generic rc helicopter controller kkkkk
All glory to the ESP32, except when it doesn't work.
I wonder what will happen if say it meets Depth Charge?
Jokes aside. Good build :>
Unironically i'll put this thing into the NHRL 30lb cage as a minibot if and only if it's against depth charge
this rules!! enjoyed this so much
My laptop dies once the same way 2:51
sry guys Ukraine and Russia have the best battle bots league now. They had Kamikaze robots vs grenade launcher robots last week. freaking badass
I like your funny words magic man
Boppity bippity your breathing is now a conscious activity
As a fellow EE/CS major or whatever, fuck you. Keep going, nothing's real and I love you.
Thanks...?
I have a bunch of usb cables that I use for the esp32 where I litterly cut the 5v line, that way it can never happen. I've heard of a bunch of people destroying ports but I have to say that I have never heard of frying an entire PC before
Hopefully the PC was not too nice!
That's an interesting approach... and no it wasn't a particularly high end laptop but it was the one i used for school so...
Well that's annoying... I don't think you said it in the video bit were you able to recover your data?
Yea the SSD was fine. It, along with all of my data, currently lives in the replacement laptop
Glad to hear it! Anyways thanks for the video, it was great!
Ha! You tease!
Yes i do tease, i guess

Hi, kyle, if your reading this, how would you connect a wii remote to an arduino to control a robot?
The wii remote itself is just a bluetooth device, so I had an ESP32 inside the robot that it connects to. Someone made a library to do this which I used, though it takes a small modification to get it to work. I keep meaning contribute my fix to github but I keep forgetting to
github.com/hrgraf/ESP32Wiimote
The ESP32, in my experience, is not able to handle pretty harsh conditions (i.e. combat robotics), so I'm working on a different solution using ELRS, but it's still a bit immature to talk about here. That being said, I can still recommend it for most other things. Some folks use ESP32s to control 3lb combat robots at NHRL with xbox controllers and such, so I might just be bad at this.
Please can you make the sides rounded or triangular so it can never end up on its side? Or is that not allowed? 🚫
No it is i'm just dumb
Hey Kyle, would you be able to look at the info through my page, so we can discuss further.
nah hold on whats that second one on your dresser, did u make a fully defined plant version?
If there is a PLAnt tournament which would allow me to enter 3lb robot consisting of TPU, AR500, CF, and UHMW, i guess the answer is yes. Otherwise i'm stuck waiting until April NHRL
