Paul so awsome of you to do this video and share this info .not only is biteforce the undisputed greatest robot of all time but your the best person in the sport for sharing these secrets to your success.....legend is the only way to describe you correctly
Tombstone is a better example honestly. Look at his season 2 run, every detail was perfect, which won him the championship. Barely lost in season 1. And season 3 was a wash for tombstone. If we don't talk about season 5... tombstone had an *almost* perfect run until season 4. I would say Rotator is the one who pulled off a truly monumental upset on tombstone, before Ray lost to Paul again in a rematch in 2019 in the semifinals
Honestly, I'd like to add that armor plays a large role as well. Obviously you want a bot that can take a hit if you're going up against a bot like Tombstone or Glitch. Bots like Hijinx, Blade, and Blacksmith seem to have paper thin armor. I'm surprised that people don't seem to give it as much of a priority. If you take a look at bots like Gruff and Malice, their bots have impressive armor strength, and it's noticeable.
My 10 year old son stopped the video about half way through and said "I never knew that's how an electric motor works!" This was an awesome video to teach future robot designers the importance of every detail. Great job to Paul and team Skorpios for being such great teachers!
I learned that the secret to winning the nut isn't having the most powerful weapon or the fastest drive but its having a reliable and well thought out design
Bite Force is not the best at anything, but it is good at everything. Not the fastest, not the most durable, not the most powerful weapon, but it does everything well enough and doesn't fail in any area. And that's enough to win.
Today I learnt: Motor magnets are the brittle part. Mr BattleBots himself, giving everyone life lessons. Bet everyone is noting his strategies down because holy shit talk about perfection. And damn, the Gage Cauchois end at the end got me. He's still the best driver of all time in my opinion.
Paul Ventimiglia is a legend. The biggest difference between him and other robot builders, I think, is that he learned after every fight his robot had. For example, after his Brutallity was blown up by Megabyte, he focused on designing the most robust and durable robot, which in the end is the key to BiteForce's success. It is not necessarily the robot that knocks out the most that wins a championship, but the one that remains unbeatable till the end.
Thank you all SO much for all that you do for the bot building community! You inspire SO many people! Kids and adults alike! We learned that often the ABSOLUTE right way to do things (as evidenced by 4 Giant Nuts) requires attention to EVERY detail AND then iteration, and "luck." Paul's comments about being ready for the luck are SO valid. Even if we redefine luck as "inevitable, unpredictable, variation" we still need to be ready for it :) We also learned the right way to battle-harden and time a motor! If it works for Paul, it'll certainly work for us!
Great video! I saw from a Witch Doctor video how they can disassemble a motor to look for cracked magnets, but had no idea of the hardening or tuning you could do with them as well. This could be its own show itself!
The level of detail at just the process of teaching how to battle harden a motor is amazing!! It is no wonder why his team and he does so well year after year.
Can’t wait to see Biteforce come back…hopefully it’s season 9 now..BattleBots is by far the best show on tv. Love these in depth interviews with the builders and drivers..Thank You
I learned that Zach is good at lifting giant nuts. But I also learned that power is not everything, nor is defense. Everything needs to be balanced, which includes attack, defense, good driving, making sure the weapon and batteries do not die, and even making sure the sponsors pitch in too!
Fantastic machine; a real testimony to engineering mastery. That isn't just blowing smoke from a fan of the sport... the proven track record of Bite Force is undeniable.
This was awesome! Thanks, Zach & Paul, I'm consistently blown away by the robotics community, sharing and collaborating, even at the highest level of competition. I noticed in this video that Paul and the Biteforce team are eminently organized and prepared, custom tooling for the mag-motors, a custom applicator for epoxy and labels and 'spots' for everything in the shop, it's no surprise to me that they're able to compete so effectively when they spend the time to design and implement a strong infrastructure around the team!
I learnt that not just the robots of Skorpios and Bite Force are awesome, but the team are as well. The teams of both robots are incredible, absolute geniuses, and play a major part in making the show AMAZING!
Today I learned how to prep motors! I've been fighting for years and that level of detail and precision has never even occurred to me. Bonus thing I've learned: There's always more you can do to get closer to perfection.
So impressive and cool of you to interview and share the video of the all time GOAT of combat robots . His record and streak is as untouchable as martin brouders records are . Not that it is possible but somehow now i like team skorpios even more than i already did for you doing this video for us .
I learned that his workshop is basically crammed with the old Biteforce bots, Giant Nuts and chunks of opponent bots he's kept as trophies. So freaking badass.
What I took away from thus video and Paul is, no matter what weight class I'm running going to battel harden my motors. Even at 150g I'm breaking magnets. Also thank you Paul, I though I was spending to much time designing my bot, good to know that that pro like you take just as much time. Thanks team skorpios for bring another great and informative video.
@@SkorpiosBattlebot you have no clue. Just order some e-20ns, also can you ask Paul to please share how he made his custom motor tool. I know a few people who would love you for that, including this guy. Just thought I ask. Keep up the good work. #weneedseason6
What I will always appreciate about biteforce is not that they have a crazy complex robot design, but that they perfect every single component on the robot to make sure that there are no weaknesses that can easily cost them a match.
I was impressed with the level of detail he put into making sure that the electric motors are reliable. I learned that you can time an electric motor by adjusting the can and making sure that the motor draws the same amps in either polarity.
Today I learned that Paul keeps an AWESOME set of trophies from his previous battles! Now that the event has a confirmed venue & time, I can't wait to see you guys in action again!
I learned that having a clear design, is key to having enough time to build, test and refine things. Paul sure has a great team, and I'm sure it's well stocked with talent from FIRST Robotics participants. Everyone should participate in robotics programs, to help build the community and find good people to help your team be successful.
I learned that there's much more depth to build a nice battle bot than just "give it a big spinning powerful weapon". I always tought that, but just seeing how much attention Paul gives to details like the single motors makes it clear why BiteForce is so durable and consistent.
I learned that Paul is actually interesting! He doesn't come across well on TV because he's just a cool dude. You've gotta be big on TV. As a bot builder though, second to none.
This was a great video, thank you! I have learned that Bite Force's secret to success is to focus more on the fine details of a simple design in order to have the best control, instead of bombarding the robot with unnecessary components and power. Thanks again!
There are certain aspects of building a robot, one with the powerful weapon, one with the powerful drive, one with the great armour, but paul is the guy who take every part of the robot in consideration to make a reliable, simple, 'Efficiant' robot, which results in 3 giant nuts, not to mention fans that Biteforce gain due to this!! I also uses mags for my bot but i never consider the timing as a big concern, but as we can see it has a big impact on it. So definitely doing timing adjustment for now on!!
I learned that building a competitive robot requires engineering prowess, attention to detail, and is a team effort. You learn the weaknesses of your robot through competition and use this knowledge to refine your design and add redundancies so you do better next time!
So cool to see all the pieces of other bots displayed as trophies next to the 3 giant nut trophies. 7:55 I believe I see a piece of the back of witch doctor, their self-righting mechanism, a piece of tombstone's weapon, the front half of rotator, and a wheel from sawblaze. Can't really tell who some of the other pieces came from.
I can't lie I'm still very new to combat robotics and the science behind it. Paul is a very good example off how someone can create something that dominates with very simple and effective proccess. The expression K.I.S.S (keep it simple stupid) comes to mind very much so with biteforce. Thank you for this very very interesting!
Reliability is very important in combat robots. Had a motor break a magnet the other week, so epoxy and lock tight everything. Plus cable ties, cable tie everything else that can't be locktighted.
They say Bite Force's secret is the combo of perfect design, excellent driver, and his team's expertise, but we all know how amazing they are; that's no secret. What actually makes Bite Force so good is the devilish deal he made with Ray Billings, the Reaper Himself, at the finals of the 2015 Battlebots Championship--if he lost, he would be forever banished from the realm of combat robotics, but if he won, Bite Force would gain near invincibility! The great dark secrets has been revealed!
I came on here just to check out your video I am a battlebot enthusiasm. What I learned about bite force what you got to make sure that your polarities are about the same whether it is forward or backwards and I never knew that you were able to add a adhesive to your magnet chamber and it will help it maintained consistent temperatures and withstand higher temperatures quite fascinating stuff
I learned all about the motor hardening process! It's so crazy, I didn't know anything about the bench power supply changing values when the motor is reassembled, that's so helpful! [I'm totally gonna use that now! :)] Hoping to win the Bite Force, it's one of the only hexbug bots I don't have signed!
I'm going to post before I watch the video. The advantage that Bite Force had over other bots was that it would recover from an engagement faster than the other bots. It was back on the ground, in control, and rolling to the next contact point before the other bots leveled out. Ok. I can watch now.
Well I'm convinced that he deserved to win. I didn't even think about modding the motors themselves. So that was the secret to Bite Force, every little part of it is perfected.
got to give paul alot of credit here not knowing prior how he battle hardens his motors and watching and explaining it helps out alot also with this knowledge it's kind of oddly universal with most brushed motors even ones I use in my heavy weight in the uk live scene which after seeing this video I am probably going to try the same techniques on the motors I run and see how well they hold up when ever the uk scene starts up again
Am Again on top ten i deserve that bot, tnxs team scorpios bcoz of u guys we get to see our favourite builder's and their bots in this pandemic time, i hope this season u get half tombstone bar too in ur collection, like in pauls collection or else ray will hve half scorpios in his collections 😂😂 Best of luck👍
I learned that you have to time a brushed motor. I thought that the screws would automatically line everything up, so the magnet cycle would be all set. Is it because the magnets in a “magmotor” don’t have slots to fit into?
Paul’s not the only one, most of the other builders have parts from other bots they have broken off and are signed. Like how Ray has the fists that Tombstone took off of Tantrum.
I have had people actually argue with me on reddit that biteforce isnt the greatest of all time ..then the same people will say that was long time ago and it couldnt hold up to the current robots ..i understand having a favorite robot and all but when it comes to biteforce nobody can wish their favorite robot in beating biteforce .....unless their favorite robot is called chomp
The takeaway for me is: 1. You add all those tiny improvements all the way from the base and don’t count on just one component to do all the trick 2. It takes more than just science but also your gut feeling and experience to break into certain roof that capped everybody else

THE KING HAS SPOKEN
Paul so awsome of you to do this video and share this info .not only is biteforce the undisputed greatest robot of all time but your the best person in the sport for sharing these secrets to your success.....legend is the only way to describe you correctly
@@mostlycrazyallthetime shame he was stripped of his title due to the pandemic the title he never lost
I learned today that building a winning robot is about getting ALL tiny details correct, instead of focussing on how fast your weapon is spinning.
Tombstone is a better example honestly. Look at his season 2 run, every detail was perfect, which won him the championship. Barely lost in season 1. And season 3 was a wash for tombstone. If we don't talk about season 5... tombstone had an *almost* perfect run until season 4. I would say Rotator is the one who pulled off a truly monumental upset on tombstone, before Ray lost to Paul again in a rematch in 2019 in the semifinals
Honestly, I'd like to add that armor plays a large role as well. Obviously you want a bot that can take a hit if you're going up against a bot like Tombstone or Glitch. Bots like Hijinx, Blade, and Blacksmith seem to have paper thin armor. I'm surprised that people don't seem to give it as much of a priority. If you take a look at bots like Gruff and Malice, their bots have impressive armor strength, and it's noticeable.
Paul really knows what hes is doing
My 10 year old son stopped the video about half way through and said "I never knew that's how an electric motor works!" This was an awesome video to teach future robot designers the importance of every detail. Great job to Paul and team Skorpios for being such great teachers!

Mr BattleBots himself, giving everyone life lessons. Bet everyone is noting his strategies down because holy shit talk about perfection.
And damn, the Gage Cauchois end at the end got me. He's still the best driver of all time in my opinion.
The secret to biteforce is a very solid design, a good team to build/maintain it and a driver who knows how to control it well.
Great vlog!
Also Robert Cowan (from Copperhead) has a very good video on how to battleharden motors.
Paul Ventimiglia is a legend.
The biggest difference between him and other robot builders, I think, is that he learned after every fight his robot had. For example, after his Brutallity was blown up by Megabyte, he focused on designing the most robust and durable robot, which in the end is the key to BiteForce's success. It is not necessarily the robot that knocks out the most that wins a championship, but the one that remains unbeatable till the end.
Paul came close to a famous quote “Prepare to be lucky”.
Thank you all SO much for all that you do for the bot building community! You inspire SO many people! Kids and adults alike!

We also learned the right way to battle-harden and time a motor! If it works for Paul, it'll certainly work for us!
"You know you've achieved perfection in design, not when you have nothing more to add, but when you have nothing more to take away."
What I learned... Only the best engineers share all their secrets.
Great video! I saw from a Witch Doctor video how they can disassemble a motor to look for cracked magnets, but had no idea of the hardening or tuning you could do with them as well. This could be its own show itself!

The key to any build is a first principle design. Paul is a prime example of this.
I am amazed at the immense trial and error involved in the precise engineering as well the work required to make equipment combat worthy.
So impressive and cool of you to interview and share the video of the all time GOAT of combat robots . His record and streak is as untouchable as martin brouders records are . Not that it is possible but somehow now i like team skorpios even more than i already did for you doing this video for us .
I also learned that I have more subs than both Bite Force and Skorpios. This is unacceptable and you two deserve more subs!!
Not anymore
@@jonathanf2392 GOOD.
You must delete yourself from this platform to set the world right again and fix this unacceptable problem of them having less subs .
"It looks elegant and simple because we spent time to make it look obvious and simple"
Excellent video! Great seeing Paul & Bite Force again!
I've really enjoyed these videos. Found the channel via reddit and been slowly making my way through the catalog.
Wow! This tells me that like any great athlete or competitor, the driving factor behind Paul’s success is his attention to every single detail.
I learned that his workshop is basically crammed with the old Biteforce bots, Giant Nuts and chunks of opponent bots he's kept as trophies. So freaking badass.
I HONESTLY NEVER KNEW ELECTRIC MOTORS HAD TO BE TIMED... VERY INTERESTING!!!! THANK ZACH AND THANKS PAUL
I’m such a huge fan of Biteforce!!! The will to succeed, and the calmness to strategize during the match is something I aspire to!

What is your team or bots name .do you post videos of your fights and robot builds? I would definitely sub and follow you just from your comment here
i learned that being humble and simple are key to success, cheers Paul! I’ve been ur fan since brutality days.
What I will always appreciate about biteforce is not that they have a crazy complex robot design, but that they perfect every single component on the robot to make sure that there are no weaknesses that can easily cost them a match.
I also love Paul's approachability and humility. He seems like a genuinely awesome guy.
I learned I need way more tools in my life. Also the trophy display gave me chills
Ps: This is the best battle bots content on TH-cam. Thank you!
I was impressed with the level of detail he put into making sure that the electric motors are reliable. I learned that you can time an electric motor by adjusting the can and making sure that the motor draws the same amps in either polarity.
Biteforce is a nutter. Absolute hard work paying of.

I learned that there's much more depth to build a nice battle bot than just "give it a big spinning powerful weapon". I always tought that, but just seeing how much attention Paul gives to details like the single motors makes it clear why BiteForce is so durable and consistent.
I learned two things: Details matter and there is no detail too small.

What an awesome break down, had to break out my bot journal and take notes.

I learned that building a competitive robot requires engineering prowess, attention to detail, and is a team effort. You learn the weaknesses of your robot through competition and use this knowledge to refine your design and add redundancies so you do better next time!
today i learned that Paul just really is that quiet and even toned. And that biteforce reflects that pretty well.
biteforce is the perfect bot holy cow. i always knew that biteforce was strong but I just saw how biteforce became such an amazing machine.
So cool to see all the pieces of other bots displayed as trophies next to the 3 giant nut trophies. 7:55 I believe I see a piece of the back of witch doctor, their self-righting mechanism, a piece of tombstone's weapon, the front half of rotator, and a wheel from sawblaze. Can't really tell who some of the other pieces came from.
Wow! Grate job guys.love it!
Attention to detail.... Love it!
I learned about retiming brushed motors after epoxying the magnets. I had no idea they were so sensitive!
Loved the tutorial on battle hardening the mags!
I learnt how Paul is even more OCD than I thought, which is why he's so successful, everything is perfectly planned and calculated.
I can't lie I'm still very new to combat robotics and the science behind it. Paul is a very good example off how someone can create something that dominates with very simple and effective proccess. The expression K.I.S.S (keep it simple stupid) comes to mind very much so with biteforce. Thank you for this very very interesting!
Packaging is the most important thing in designing, also I really like the way to adjust the timing of motor when reassemblying it!
Never knew that new motors don't draw the same amount of current forwards and backwards unless you adjust them to do so. Fascinating.
I love how he works surrounded by the skulls of his victims. Very impressive designer
Reliability is very important in combat robots. Had a motor break a magnet the other week, so epoxy and lock tight everything. Plus cable ties, cable tie everything else that can't be locktighted.
I learned that having a successful robot starts with a properly prepared team.
I always knew bite force was built differently this shows Paul is a machine himself
That was good info on the mag motors. I’m glad you got my old partner Gage in there. He and I just had lunch 2 weeks ago in Los Gatos. Great video.
Would be good to see Bite Force back at Battlebots and to see how it stacks up to the current competition.
What did I learn? I learned that Paul's gonna need a bigger trophy table.
What a fantastic collection of broken BattleBot bits! 😁
He still has Season 1 Bite Force intact.
I can't imagine how much trial and error went into figuring out how to battle harden every single component. Amazing!
Can't wait for Chomp Energy for 2021!
I learned today to plan for damage, and to battle harden your systems to withstand it.
They say Bite Force's secret is the combo of perfect design, excellent driver, and his team's expertise, but we all know how amazing they are; that's no secret. What actually makes Bite Force so good is the devilish deal he made with Ray Billings, the Reaper Himself, at the finals of the 2015 Battlebots Championship--if he lost, he would be forever banished from the realm of combat robotics, but if he won, Bite Force would gain near invincibility!

Respec and put more points into your Luck attribute!
I learned that Biteforce is way bigger in real life than it looks on TV.
This!!!!! Way bigger ..
Where do you find that chart at 0:22?
I've learned that robots can build robots... Paul is a machine 😁
Well I'm convinced that he deserved to win. I didn't even think about modding the motors themselves. So that was the secret to Bite Force, every little part of it is perfected.
I learned that I missed a chance to get a great souvenir (jk), because I wasn't prepared to watch the video when it comes out. I'll subscribe.
Good idea!!
I will let you in on a secret
I’m doing another one next week !!
Guess who??
Quack
got to give paul alot of credit here not knowing prior how he battle hardens his motors and watching and explaining it helps out alot also with this knowledge it's kind of oddly universal with most brushed motors even ones I use in my heavy weight in the uk live scene which after seeing this video I am probably going to try the same techniques on the motors I run and see how well they hold up when ever the uk scene starts up again

Best of luck👍
I don't want the hexbug, but I learned Diana is crazy at the end 😄
(on a serious note, this was interesting)
I learned that being the best battlebot is not as easy as you think, you have to have the right techniques and supplies to have a successful bot.
Really??
@@danzo5521 what?
@@Therealhex I thought it was easy, you could just build anything and win easily easy
@@danzo5521 I guess I wasn't really trying to answer it correctly

Paul gave up secrets that every BattleBots competitor will now use. Thanks what a cool video.
I learned that Paul is tha Michael Jordan of Battlebots 😂😂😂
Makes complete sense that such a powerhouse actually modifies his components. Clever rascal.
I learned that like in most top sports including Battlebots, to be the best, you need to put in a lot of effort.
I learned how experience and percision make the robot.
My son Gilbert says that he learned today that, "Bite Force is still THE BEST!"
I learned that you have to time a brushed motor. I thought that the screws would automatically line everything up, so the magnet cycle would be all set. Is it because the magnets in a “magmotor” don’t have slots to fit into?
The secret of perfection has been revealed!
I learned bite force keeps trophies from their fallen enemies. like a barbarian warlord. keep up the good work guys !!
Paul’s not the only one, most of the other builders have parts from other bots they have broken off and are signed. Like how Ray has the fists that Tombstone took off of Tantrum.
I've just realized that bite force is 100% designed for robot combat without any unnecessary decoration around.
imagine putting fire as a weapon on a robot lmao
Today I learned what battle-hardening a motor actually entails, instead of just hearing the term and being vaguely confused.
Didn't realize it was necessary to disassemble magmotors to harden them. I assumed the only trick was shock mounting!
I knew Bite Force was awesome, but after watching this video I learned just how awesome. 25-1 record all-time?! Are you kidding me?! Lol wow. 😍🦂💙
I have had people actually argue with me on reddit that biteforce isnt the greatest of all time ..then the same people will say that was long time ago and it couldnt hold up to the current robots ..i understand having a favorite robot and all but when it comes to biteforce nobody can wish their favorite robot in beating biteforce .....unless their favorite robot is called chomp
I learned that motors do good spin
The takeaway for me is:
1. You add all those tiny improvements all the way from the base and don’t count on just one component to do all the trick
2. It takes more than just science but also your gut feeling and experience to break into certain roof that capped everybody else
