- "Will they be Larry the lamb, or a wolf in sheep's clothing?"
- — Julia Reed before Rambot's first round fight
Rambot was a long, black, very thin wedge robot that competed exclusively in Series 4 of Robot Wars. It had a lifting plate with spikes as its weapon, as well as being fully invertible. Rambot was armoured in aluminium and padded in titanium plates, but was stuck together with glue. It had a lot of speed at 20mph, due to its modified Bosch engines.
- "Inside we've got the biggest batteries we could get our hands on, and the biggest motors in the business, so we know we're going to do some damage with this robot."
- — David Johnson
Rambot showed plenty of aggression in its heat eliminator. Unfortunately, the judges did not believe the aggression was well controlled, and it was thus eliminated. In Series 6, the team returned to Robot Wars with the more successful Double Trouble.

Series 4Edit
Added by Toon GanondorfIn the first round of the Fourth Wars, Rambot was placed up against Arnold, Arnold Terminegger and the number 6 seeds Behemoth. Rambot remained outside the opening conflict, only landing a minor attack on Arnold, Arnold Terminegger. It rammed its opponents, righting Arnold when it was immobile. Rambot crashed around the sidewalls during its attacks, slipping effortlessly beneath Sergeant Bash at one point. Later, Rambot ran onto the scoop of Behemoth and was flipped twice in quick succession. It showed poor control as it attempted to strike its opponents, slamming itself into the arena side walls repeatedly, Behemoth then got one last flip on Rambot as cease was called, for the battle to go to a judges' decision. In what Jonathan Pearce described as a very close judges' decision, Behemoth and Arnold, Arnold Terminegger were put through, eliminating Rambot from the competition.
- "Ripping up the arena floor. But power is nothing without control."
- — Julia Reed
