Tiny battle bot uses 300 pound house bot as a weapon (youtube.com)

So house bots function as the refs in battle bots. They are used to separate stuck bots so a fight can continue and the like. Each team also gets one "unstuck" from the house bot per fight, where if they get stuck on the edge of the arena but are functional they can have the house bot come give them a push to keep the fight going.

They weigh WAY more than the little bots they are reffing for, so the little bots shouldn't be able to do any damage to the house bots or interfere with them.

Kevin disagrees.

I hope flipping it counts!

I don’t think so, I think you have to spin the power switch in the back of the bot. But still!
