Well first off I am an avid fan of Battlebots and have been for a while so I will defend them. This was a preview show first of all, and they haven't even really showed the good teams yet, next week watch Nightmare, that robot is a larger version of Backlash (the robot with the huge cutting wheel). It is famous for sending a 130lb robot airborne. If that doesn't show engineering skill, what will. As for the not showing the technical stuff that much, they really should try to stay away from that because they are trying to captivate more of an audience than people like us who know how these parts work. So of course everything needs to be dumbed down a bit. Give it time, its actually very fun to watch. Of course very different from FIRST so its hard to compare.
Peace out,
Andy Grady
