Behind the Bots

BattleBots S6E10 Recap with Yeti Captain Greg Gibson and Teammate James Arluck

Listen Later

This week on the podcast, we’re catching up Greg Gibson and James Arluck from Yeti. Greg and James are both very busy people, so we ended up recording a special bonus interview in the middle of the night one recent Tuesday, after the team’s Main Event vs. Skorpios. We get into the history of the bot, the current meta in the sport, and where Yeti is going in the future — super interesting conversation, and we’re looking forward to having Greg and James on the show again soon.

 

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. Check them out at maxamps.com
