About KateBot:
KateBot is my first robot that i planned to build and have started to build the other being a college entry into Robot Wars (old uk tv show that pitted robots against each other) that didnt even get onto the drawing board stage. I have got building stages planned for progress i want to make and time i want to of taken i will list this below.
