R-ATV

Design and build a manually controlled, battery-powered rover that must navigate through obstacles in the arena and complete the race ahead of competing rovers. The robot must operate wirelessly, as wired control is strictly prohibited.

Participants must build a wireless RC controlled robot capable of navigating a track consisting of various hurdles like high bumps, low friction surfaces, banked corners, and other dynamic hurdles

Climb or crawl. Scale or tumble. Dominate or be defeated. R-ATV is an adrenaline-pumping all-terrain vehicle competition where participants showcase their own made remote-controlled ATVs. This event pushes the limits of engineering and driving skills, challenging builders to create the ultimate off-road machine. Demonstrate your vehicle's prowess by navigating rugged landscapes and out maneuvering your rivals! Contestants will race their ATVs through a demanding course filled with obstacles, from rocky terrains and inclinations to muddy pits. Prepare for unexpected challenges and dynamic twists that will test your ATV's endurance and maneuverability. The 'Terrains of Triumph' await!
