2023 VEX Balloon Battle
Every year we participate in the Vex Balloon Battle, where we build robots to battle against other schools in the local area. First, teams of students work together to build robots from Vex robot parts. They spend a few months creating, testing and iterating on ideas to create a unique bot that will dominate the competition. When the building is finished all the robots are taken to the host school for battle, Balloons are tied to the bots and up to four bots are pitted against each other in a round with the winner moving up a bracket until a champion is declared.
