    Drone Battle Bots-Fight Club For Nerds

    What two new sports feature drones?

    With drones firmly planted in our pop culture sensibilities, one sport has taken arise and created a hybrid war with battling robots. Battle bots are now all the rage with battling quads fighting to the death and an expanding audience screaming for more. This seems like a natural progression for a television audience that wants a blood sport without the appearance of blood.

    In July, Yahoo TV refers to Team Whyachi of providing a glimpse of this with a flame-throwing drone appropriately named The Dragon. The brilliance in all of this is that the quad was equipped with this device for under $20.00 from parts at a local hardware store. As the team would later tell Yahoo TV, “This is our drone smiting device. It’s good for getting drones out of the sky. It’s also good for leaves.” This is great news for anyone living where the Fall Season takes place.
