From BattleBots to 150 gram robot combat. The Sting V4 Fighting Robot Kit is an official collaboration between Turnabot and Team Skorpios, bringing BattleBots-inspired design to a robot that's affordable, durable, and ready for real competition.

Built on four generations of refinement, Sting V4 combines a rugged TPU front end, an integrated wheelie bar, and a sleek, low center of gravity to create a robot that's built to take hits and keep fighting. Thick impact-absorbing armor protects against vertical and horizontal attacks, while aggressive front forks help get underneath opponents.

Under the hood, Sting uses the same battle-proven electronics and drivetrain found in OverThrow, including the trusted Malenki Nano ESC and Turnabot motors that have powered countless successful robots. It's a platform designed for both new builders and experienced competitors.

Sting also features customizable colors, a convenient charging port, and an external power switch, making it as fun to personalize as it is to drive.

Every Sting kit helps support Team Skorpios. A portion of every sale goes directly toward rebuilding, maintaining, and advancing the full-size Skorpios BattleBot, so your purchase helps support one of the sport's most iconic teams.
