A challenging engineering project aimed at interesting young people in engineering by involving them in an exciting social and technology learning project to construct radio controlled sporting robots to compete in a National competition.<\/p>\n

The aim of the project is to interest young people in the fun of technology and engineering through the construction and operation of a powerful featherweight sporting robot to compete in the Assault Course, Sumo and 2-a-Side Football Competitions at the Scottish and UK Robotic Games. The project is aimed at young people aged 13 to 18 <\/span>from youth organisations and school clubs<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The project educates young people involved in citizenship, project management, leadership, personal discipline, engineering, science, electronics and mathematics. It also teaches important social skills such as how to work as a team to achieve a challenging goal. The radio controlled sporting robots weigh about 10kg and are big and powerful enough not to be considered as toys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
