First Demo UTM ROBOCON 2013

We are lacking of time! After rushing for building up our very first competition robot in this 1 month time, the first demonstration UTM ROBOCON 2013 was held at P10, FKE on 22nd of Feb 2013. There is still much space to be improved, so don't satisfy with what you have achieved. For those who could not perform well, don't give up! Let's FIGHT and WIN the game again!
