House Bots

2026-08-20T02:22:30Z

Luma Robotics:

[[File:Brett and Fluffy.jpg|thumb|Our original three house bots (left to right): Bert, Fluffy (old design), and Brett]]
[[File:Bart.png|thumb|180x180px|Bart The Brick]]
NHRL uses seven house bots: Brett the Brick, Bert the Brick, Bart the Brick, Chett the Brick, Brad the Brick, Fluffy, and Flo.
[[File:Brad.png|thumb|179x179px|Brad The Brick]]
[[File:Brett the Brick with Smoke.jpg|thumb|Brett looking epic with smoke effects]]

Brett has been a part of NHRL since we began in 2018, using a single 3lb cage. Bert and Fluffy made their debuts in February 2021; Bert in the new second 3lb cage, and Fluffy in the 30lb cage.

Additional house bots Bart, Chett, and Brad have been added to 3lb cages throughout NHRL, and Flo has been added to the big boxes.
[[File:Chett.png|thumb|179x179px|Chett The Brick]]
[[File:Fluffy.png|thumb|179x179px|Fluffy (New Design)]]
[[File:Flo.png|thumb|180x180px|Flo]]
Bert and Bart are Brett's long-lost triplet brothers, while Brad and Chett are their cousins. Chett is sometimes referred to as "Bort" just to blend in with the other robots.

Fluffy and Flo's origins are unknown as of now, although the appearance of a second 300lb house bot has raised some questions.

All house bots contain HD cameras where they can capture close-up action shots for our livestreams. They also have the important jobs of unsticking bots who have become stuck together, high-centered on debris, leaning on a wall, or doing "the thing." Each competitor gets one unstick per match from a house bot; if they get stuck a second time and cannot move, they will be counted out.

All seven bots have controllable LEDs that allow the colors of their eyes and face to change.

Brett, Bert, Bart, Chett, and Brad all weigh 60 pounds. They are made of steel and driven by 2 powered skateboard trucks. They each use 4 VESC Motor controllers, and are each powered by two 6s batteries in parallel.

Fluffy and Flo weigh in at a little over 300 pounds, and are 11.5 inches tall, 20.5 inches deep, and 24.5 inches across.

===Robot Facts===
Brett has appeared in different forms throughout NHRL history. Original versions of Brett simply used a cinder block. It turns out 3lb bots can destroy a cinder block. For the 2020 season, Brett was upgraded to a steel brick that would be easier to service and have more space for batteries.

== Brett's power switch legend ==

[[File:Brett the Brick with no top from rear.jpg|thumb|Brett's Switch with a peek at internals]]
[[File:Brett the brick with no top.jpg|thumb|Brett's switch from the front inside]]
[[File:Brett 2.png|thumb|Brett art by Emeth]]
All house bots are equipped with a [https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Sea-Systems-Circuit-Battery/dp/B006FXVFOG/ref=zg_bs_3398691_4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=7BH9G03ZN0A0FA9FTAMW large red power switch] originally designed as a marine battery disconnect. Rumor has it that if any robot is able to them down during a match, they would win the NHRL tournament for the weight class they have entered. While winning the weight class is possible, it is a certainty that any robot that can switch off Brett by switching his power switch will win $1000.00 and the match they are fighting in.

{{#evu:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUbP3ogRGDM?t=62
}}

Brett was successfully deactivated for the first time during the March 15th 2021 event. This occurred when [[Judge's Dream]] knocked [[Fragment]] into Brett. Since Fragment technically was the bot that switched Brett off, they were granted the win. Considering the circumstances, Fragment's driver opted to take the $1000 but forfeited their win in the name of sportsmanship.

$1000 was awarded in cash on the spot.

Last switch was September 30th by [https://www.youtube.com/live/QBAt5FbZB_Q?si=BjAsdW6jPIxk6RcW&t=4726 Kevin Milczewski] with [[Timber Viper]] when he turned off Fluffy. It was quite the moment. However, Milczewski is keen on weaponizing House Bots by flipping them onto his opponents' robots.

Silent Spring

2026-07-12T19:52:33Z

Luma Robotics:

Silent Spring is a beetleweight featuring a modular design. This robot built by [[Jamison Go]] has been competing at Norwalk Havoc since its inaugural event.

Silent Spring went undefeated from its appearance at the debut December 2018 NHRL event to the January 2020 event. It did not lose a fight for the entirety of 2019. That 17-fight winning streak is the longest in NHRL history, finally snapped in a loss to [[Narsil]]. Silent Spring got its revenge that event, coming back from the loser's bracket to defeat [[Narsil]] in the final twice and win the January 2020 tournament; one of its many Golden Dumpster victories.

Jamison Go also competes on BattleBots with his 250lb heavyweight SawBlaze. He also has run a number of robot at NHRL, with an experimental version of Silent Spring called [[Silent X]], two hobbyweights called [[Attrition]] and [[Saiko!]], and the reigning 30lb champion [[MegatRON]].

Team Fast Electric Robots

2026-07-12T19:46:58Z

Luma Robotics:

==Overview==
'''Team Fast Electric Robots''' is an active team that is best known for their ''BattleBots'' heavyweights, '''Whiplash''' and '''Defender'''.

==Outside NHRL==
Outside of NHRL, the team has had success on both ''RoboGames'' and ''BattleBots''. The team also participated in the second season of TLC's ''Robotica'' with '''Deb Bot'''.

In BattleBots, the team got their start in Season 3.0 of the Comedy Central run with '''Deb Bot''' and '''Matts Bammer'''. Both of those robots would compete until the final season of the original run where the heavyweight '''Think Tank''' also joined their roster.

In 2005, the team would branch in a new direction, entering the 2005 RoboGames with the middleweight '''Doom on You!''' which managed a 4-2 record before returning for the RFL Nationals that year and placing 3rd in the middleweight class. Doom on You! enjoyed a long career before retiring in 2017 after a disappointing 2-2 finish.

With Doom on You! on the backburner, the team debuted a new heavyweight for the 2015 RoboGames named '''Whiplash'''. Then, a simple two-wheel drive vertical spinner, it was overturned instantly by '''Whoops!''' before suffering a repeat performance against '''Gruff'''.

With the return of BattleBots in 2015, the team devised a new heavyweight with a combination lifter and vertical spinner named '''Splatter'''. It was entered into World Championship I, but was unfortunately relegated to being an unused reserve bot for that year. Splatter returned for World Championship II, but was quickly eliminated in the first round following a judges decision against Team Whyachi and '''Warrior Clan'''. The Splatter name was retired after this.

With BattleBots on hiatus in 2017, Whiplash returned to RoboGames with Splatter's design. This time, Whiplash carved a path straight to the finals with wins against '''Frankinbot''', '''Vlad the Impaler II''', and the legendary '''Sewer Snake''' before losing to [[Ray Billings]] and '''Swamp Thing'''. Whiplash would continue its tear through the loser's bracket with back to back wins against the robot combat legends '''Crash n' Burn''', and '''Touro Maximus''' before avenging its loss to '''Swamp Thing''' to qualify for the final against '''Original Sin''' where it lost and claimed the RoboGames 2017 heavyweight silver medal.

Whiplash would then go to BattleBots for World Championships III where it made the semifinals in its debut before losing to '''Bite Force'''. The following year, it would compete in the re:MARS side event before returning for WC IV where it cracked the quarter finals before suffering a brutal knockout loss against '''Tombstone'''. In WC V, Whiplash would match its career best finish of the grand final before being thrown out of the arena by '''End Game''' for the title. Whiplash returned for WC VI where it only got to the round of 16 thanks to a controversial judges decision against '''Cobalt''', before returning for that year's re:MARS event where it suffered another early exit against [[Seems Reasonable Robotics|Aren Hill]] and '''Blip'''. Whiplash was not done yet, though, as it competed in BattleBots: Champions I where it made it won its Sin City Slugfest bracket before losing the boss fight to '''Witch Doctor'''. Whiplash would return for World Championship VII where its dreams of winning the Giant Nut were cut short by Team Whyachi's '''Hydra'''. Returning in BattleBots: Champions II, Whiplash would again win its Slugfest bracket to qualify for the Golden Bolt Tournament where it would lose in the first round to Jeff Waters and '''JackPot'''.

During World Championship VI, Jason Vasquez entered a heavyweight of his own, '''Defender''', which went 2-1 in the Fight Nights, but lost the play-in match to '''Hydra'''. Defender also competed in BattleBots: Champions I where it was swiftly defeated in it Slugfest bracket by '''Claw Viper'''.

Whiplash and Defender would both make appearances at RoboGames 2023 under the pseudonyms of '''Whomper''' and '''King Crab'''.

King Crab made it to the third round of the loser's bracket with an opening round loss to '''Banana Runt''' before beating '''Crash n' Burn''' and '''Puck''' in judges decision. King Crab met its end against BattleBots alternate '''Terrortops''' who forced Defender to tap out.

Whomper, on the other hand, only lasted one round more with an opening round loss to '''Ziggy Jr.''' before taking three straight wins against '''Banana Runt''', '''DOOM''', and '''Khaos 3'''. Whomper's run ended with a rematch against '''Ziggy Jr.''' where Whomper was knocked out.

===Robot Facts===
[[File:Megatron-dec-2024.png|alt=|thumb|MegatRON at December 2024]]
MegatRON is an articulated hammersaw built by Jamison Go. MegatRON served as a test platform for SawBlaze's current version. MegatRON was originally built to be an upgraded version of Jamison's other robot, RON. MegatRON has previously been the #1 featherweight in NHRL, becoming the 2021 champion of the NHRL featherweight division. MegatRON qualified for the 2022 finals, making 2nd place for the featherweights at April 2022.

Stag beetle bot

Luma Robotics:

===Robot Facts===
[[File:Stag Beetle Bot Feb25.png|alt=Stag Beetle Bot|thumb|Stag Beetle Bot - February 2025]]
The first year is in the books, for participating in only 2 events Stag did pretty well for it 'self. I was completely surprised that it did. I did convert a D2 kit with a Finger Tech ant weight spinner. The first armor package I tried out was cutting board mounted with "L" brackets and screws. My weapon motor kept landing on the floor, I didn't have my transmitter set-up well.

For my second event I had made polycarbonate wheel guards to replace the cutting board. I wanted to get more coverage for my wheels. Well, that didn't work out to well. The polycarbonate was too thin and was broken on any contact. Fortunately, I had a backup configuration and a second robot ready to go. I had was having transmitter setup issues again. It was not until the Red Hawk X match that my transmitter was properly set-up. (Thank you Pit crew Joe!) Stag was taking on too much damage for me to fix the bot and the wiring too.

The 2023 season is going to be very interesting for me. I am breaking away from the kit parts and making more of my own parts. I have learned how to use a C.A.D. program and have designed a TPU armor package with titanium wheel guards. I am modifying my own tires to cut costs. I am trying different parts on the motors to make them easier to work on. I am going back to the wiring configuration that I used in September, it's lighter and more reliable. I am hoping to have all of these pieces in place by March.

Project LiftOff

2026-03-28T21:01:59Z

Luma Robotics:

[[File:Projectliftoff 3lb Sept22.png|thumb|Project Liftoff at NHRL September 2022]]
[[File:LiftoffTPU.jpg|thumb|Project Liftoff - February 2022 (rev 6.0) Pictured before Motorama Robot Conflict]]
[[File:Project Liftoff - September 2021 (rev 5.0).jpg|thumb|Project Liftoff - September 2021 (rev 5.0), pictured before the September 2021 event. The bot went on to go undefeated, winning the 3lb division with 4 KOs and 3 judges decisions.]]
Project Liftoff is a 3lb MeltyBrain (a robot that moves using translational drift) as its entire body spins at 2000 to 4000 RPM.

Project LiftOff does '''not''' use an IR-beacon. It has dual IR-sensors in it that can be used to sense how far objects are in every direction; these can be used by the driver-controlled versions (Project LiftOff and Flip-N-Cut), and are required by the autonomous version (DeepMelt).

Dual directional LEDs (on top/bottom and front/back) are used to indicate direction relative to the Bot (not the earth/cage). When the Bot is "tuned" these LEDs do not drift, but will change direction as the Bot ricochets around the cage. The driver must learn to drive the Bot relative to its "front" (the green LED) just like most other Bots.

As of Nov/Dec 2022, Project Liftoff is in it's 7th design iteration.

*** Put wheels in-line with weapon tooth (what was Jim thinking).
*** misc. software improvements (algorithm simplified)
* Rev-4 : 2021 (May-2021 and July-2021) Same as Rev-3 except:
** Quest for a more durable motor...
*** May-2021: created a custom motor with internal thrust bearing with "no-name" motors (internal thrust bearing still failed by the third fight).
*** July-2021: Put a thrust bearing inside a PropDrive motor
**** Combing a PD-2826 stator with a PD-2830 motor-can gave the needed room. Could do the same thing with a PD-2830 stator and a PD-2836 motor-can (the PD-2836 is really a 2834, 4mm larger than the PD-2830).
**** This motor sacrificed power for durability. It was durable... however, it changed the failure point to the set screws and motor axle.
** Wheel Axis returning to 90 degrees from weapon
*** when wheels are inline with the weapon, the hockey-pucking is far worse.
** Making weight distribution fully symmetric...
*** a large counter-balance weight opposite (single tooth) weapon increases hockey-pucking... an impact causes the tooth to stop, but the other side of the Bot goes flying due to its own momentum.
*** change to fully symmetric two weapon teeth, allowing us to avoid a large counter balance weight.
** changed to full round HDPE body
*** prior HDPE cut-outs were to save weight
*** prior circular AR-500 weapon ring kept wall collisions "safer" and minimized pinning risk, and allowed us to hollow-out the HDPE.
*** re-design and re-cut of HDPE shell.
** weapon ring changes
*** make weapon ring narrower to decrease weight to offset increase in HDPE
*** remove bolt holes from weapon ring (to maximize its strength)
** [[File:MotoramaTPU.jpg|thumb|Project Liftoff - Side profile (rev 6.0)]]July-2021: first usage of titanium wheels. Thank you to Joe Fabbiani (Smeeeeh) and Calvin Iba (Lynx) for sharing the idea and showing the way - see Lynx May-2021 competition.
* Rev-5 : Sept-2021 Same as Rev-4 except:
** Major Motor redesign
*** Switched from PropDrive 2830 to PropDrive 2836.
**** more power.
*** Changed to a Hub Motor wheel attachment
**** 6mm dead axle
**** two 626 bearings (1000+ pounds of dynamic load)
**** custom machined aluminum inner (motor-can) and out (wheel) hubs
***** done on home CNC machine (0.2mm layer height)
**** titanium wheels (via send-cut-send)
**** no more set screw failures!
**** Thank you to Brian Boxell (Eruption) for giving us some direction, encouragement, and help on Hub Motors.
** Yet another AR-500 weapon ring re-design
*** Needed to find 80+ grams to offset the increased weight from the above Hub Motors.
*** Same 0.25" AR-500, but...
**** via send-cut-send.
**** Previous 326g (almost a full round circle) to 241g (almost rectangular)
**** Still no holes, very tapered/narrow in the middle.
** Both the above required a re-design of HDPE shell.
* [[File:Annotated Project LiftOff Internals.jpg|thumb|Annotated Image of Sept-2021 Project LiftOff internals. The accelerometer and RC receiver are on the underside of the PCB.]]Rev-5 Issues that we had hoped to address for Nov-2021 :
** In the "first attempt" of CNC'ing aluminum I made several mistakes that led to slight defects in the motor hubs (leading to non-alingment in the Hub Motors that were used... rubbing/friction/added heat/lost power).
*** Over-clamping & un-even clamping.
*** Slight alignment issues with double sided parts.
** We never (software) tuned Project LiftOff... we were making hardware fixes until midnight on Friday.
*** The controls were upside down and backwards all day on Saturday.
*** The IR object/wall detection was never used since it was so misaligned.
** Possibly make some ESC changes to improve drift performance.
** Continue to ponder how to avoid "hockey pucking".
** "Save the Arena Floor" upgrade...
*** We will modify the software to take advantage of the wheel telemetry information we have (via bidirectional dShot) to avoid "spinning our wheels".
*** This will not only stop us from ripping apart the arena floor (like a saw blade), but:
**** It will be much quieter.
**** It should enable us to spin up much faster (using static friction instead of dynamic friction).
* Rev-6 : February-2022 Same as Rev-5 except:
** Major Shell Redesign
*** After failures during the December finals, we have decided to move away from UHMW or HDPE as shell materials. These materials were too prone to failure around the metal ring.
*** The outer shells are now printed out of TPU plastic.
*** Smaller batteries
** New AR500 weapon options
*** Long reach weapon, made of stacked 1/8" AR500.
**** via send-cut-send.
**** Allows us to play the reach game with other horizontals, and keeps big wheel bots away from our chassis.
**** Welded together, questionable structural integrity.
** New PCB iteration
*** Smaller
*** Lighter
*** Bluetooth to remote external devices
**** Functional, but requires an add-on board that is hard to fit in 3 pound bot.
**** Provides battery, temp, and speed telemetry in real time
*** Smarter layout, better components.
* Rev7 changes (Sept/Nov/December 2022)
** Changed shell layout to allow...
*** rotated hub motors so wheels are outward (instead of inward).
**** This provides a better "gear ratio", giving more torque to spin up (but decreases the final speed).
*** New PCB layout to accommodate...
**** multiple accelerometers, fewer parts, different parts
*** Better machined Inner/Outer Hubs
*** Thinner Titanium wheels.
** Software improvements for better drifting
** (Finally) did revision 1 of autonomous software

===Robot Facts===
The first appearance was at the March 2019 NHRL event. The very first version used an 8" diameter aluminum pipe cut into two 1/2" thick slices with a notch cut out for the AR500 tooth (with two bolt holes).

Since then, Liftoff has used several laser or waterjet-cut AR500 steel rings. These rings have been sandwiched or otherwise mounted to CNC'd UHMW/HDPE or 3D printed TPU bodies that contain the primary electronics and battery. This has proven to be a durable, and adaptable construction method.

Chopsicle is a 3lb hammer saw robot.

The first iteration was built in less than 48 hours prior to the November 2020 event. It features an overhead weapon, controlled by a standard size servo. The body is almost entirely 0.375" thick HDPE, cut with CNC. The wheel guards are printed TPU. Weapon pulleys are printed nylon and use 1/8" round belts.

Chopsicle has fast drive and a dangerous weapon, but the first iteration was unable to self-right leaving it frequently vulnerable. It won it's first fight in dominating fashion, defeating PGF by tap-out after sawing two holes in the nylon lid, ripping out the wiring. In it's next two fights, Chopsicle was knocked upside down repeatedly and lost by tap-out and judges decision.

Chopsicle will return to Norwalk for the 2021 season with significant improvements.
