Rupture - 454g(1lb) combat robot.

My name is Bulat Begichev, Im 15 years old and Im the builder of Rupture, a 454g vertical spinner combat robot. The aim of this robot is to compete in national competitions such as the upcoming Robochallenge 2026, the biggest robotics competition in Europe. I already competed with Rupture in Robochallenge 2025 where it didnt earn a top ranking. I evaluated the mistakes and the biggest weakness and now want to improve my robot.

The biggest issue I faced with Rupture in Robochallenge 2025 was having trouble getting the right materials for the robot which are necessary for its durability particularly when facing other vertical and horizontal combat robots that hit hard.

Vertical Egg Beater Weapon - Titanium Gr5

Forks - Titanium Gr5

Top Plates - Carbon Fibre

Armour Sides - UHMW

Main Sides - UHMW

These titanium, carbon fibre and UHMW parts will drastically increase the durability of my robot and enhance its performance. I would proudly put PCBWay stickers on Rupture to show PCBWays support during upcoming competitions including Robochallenge 2026.

I would be honoured to receive support from PCBWay. Thank you for taking the time to consider my request.
