SMIDSY the Robot Wars fighting robot

SMIDSY is a fighting robot built by a team of UK motorcyclists. It competed in the UK Robot Wars series. This was SMIDSY's web site when it was competing; some of the content on these pages is several years old. This site is maintained for historical interest and for any Robot Wars fans who still follow the fighting robot scene.

As we just weren't using SMIDSY enough, we sold the robot to someone who would. Andy Steels will be updating some of SMIDSY's control electronics and bringing the robot out for competition at local events around the UK. This web site will remain dedicated to SMIDSY's earlier life, however we will link to any up-to-date SMIDSY news on other sites as we get it.
