Who We Are... Killerbotics originated in 2000 and is the brainchild of Richard Stuplich, our fearless team leader. To be clear "Killerbotics" is more a coalition of builders & their teams than an "individual team". We build our own bots but share our knowledge and resources. Currently we are a group of 4 builders with active / competing robots and 3 builders designing or building bot(s). We also have about a half dozen volunteers that help us out in many capacities! Meet the builders and drivers of our combat robots by following any of the links below.

We also have a merry band (or should we call them a claque) of people who help out with non-building related tasks for us - things like bot-wrangling at the events and helping out in the pits, writing press releases and keeping our website updated. Thanks to all of you (John, Rose, Kinger, Tony, Angel and anyone else we've forgotten to mention).
