Congratulations! you have found the Team Orr Robotics homepage! Team Orr is a group of people (all family) who make fighting robots (as seen on television shows such as Robot Wars and Battlebots). We started in October 2007. Just over 4 years later we have 12 robots and have been to events all over the country.
this site has become a hub for Roboteering guides and pictures, i hope it will stay that way and members of the community will continue to contribute useful guides and continue to inspire new members.
We now host The Richmond fighting robot club, a robot event that started in 2009, we mainly only do competitions for Antweight robots but recently we have had a few featherweights come and fight it out in a melee style whiteboard match, to find out more info, on RFRC or Antweights in general, please visit Robotwars101.com
Feel free to explore the site and leave comments
Have fun

Hi, I am new to robot building never done anything like it. Last week I found the FRA forums and althought my registration to the forums hasnt gone through I see you have a couple of windscreen wiper motors for sale? I have all the old rex’s robot challenge magazines and thought this would be a good place to start. As such are your motors like the ones he uses in being a matched pair and are they still for sale?
Regards Matt
