Why no POV shots.

It would have been so easy for the production company to put a GoPro on a bot. I know it would eventually get killed but whats the cheapest hi-def GoPro going for these days. $200 for POV footage would have been awesome. For some production companies Go Pros are disposable like pens. Wouldn't even need a GoPro, there are tons of HiDef "action cams" on the market.

Maybe not for the main fights but maybe for the 3 way rumble.

That would be awesome, assuming they would survive a fight with video intact.

Put it in a simple metal box with a Lexan Case and even if it got smacked off and flung across the arena, the SD card should still work.
