BattleBots Champions Ep. 1 Recap with Gigabyte Captain John Mladenik - a podcast by Behind the Bots

This week on the podcast, we’re catching up with longtime combat robotics builder John Mladenik, captain of Gigabyte and Cobalt on S6 of BattleBots. John and his team have essentially perfected the heavyweight shell spinner design, sending Gigabyte to a 13-10 record on the reboot of BattleBots, and fielding a very similar robot, Megabyte, on King of Bots. We’re chatting with John following the season premiere of BattleBots Champions, where Gigabyte was the episode’s final mini boss.

This week’s interview is brought to you by MaxAmps and their new line of “Max Combat” batteries. These battle-ready batteries are available for 1-, 3-, 12-, and 30-pound bots and feature a custom wrap with your team’s logo, internal hard skins for extra protection, and puncture-resistant wire sleeves.
