Touro Feather is a Featherweight robot built by Riobotz that competed from RoboGames 2008 to the final Featherweight event at RoboGames in 2011, as well as ComBots Cup VI. Initially a silver box-shaped robot armed with a powerful spinning drum. Touro Feather would undergo several design changes over the years alongside the rest of the Touro line.
Also like the rest of the Touro Line it was incredibly successful, winning Gold twice, as well as coming first in ComBots Cup VI, finishing its RoboGames Career when the 30lb class was dropped after RoboGames 2011 with a 16-6 record making it one of RoboGames most successful Featherweights.

Touro Feather vs Shaka  Touro pops Shaka into the air. Touro Feather's first fight was against Shaka, in this match both bots crept towards each other at which point Shaka stopped in the middle of the arena after a breif tap by Touro Feather. This allowed Touro Feather to get a few licks in with its drum, briefly popping Shaka off one of its drive sides in one of these exchanges.  Shaka returns the favor. Shaka then spun away, and after a bit of driving popped Touro Feather in the rear. Following this attack by Shaka, Touro Feather drove away and briefly stopped moving in the corner of the arena before being freed by Shaka. Eventually the match went to the judges when both robots stopped moving near simultaneously, and they ruled in favor of Shaka, sending Touro Feather into the loser's bracket. |
Touro Feather vs BruinBot   Touro Feather tears apart the side of BruinBot. Next Touro Feather faced BruinBot. At the start of the fight Touro Feather was having trouble getting its drum up to speed as well as struggling to get moving, initially leaving it at a disadvantage. Eventually Touro Feather started moving properly, followed by its weapon spinning up. Now having shaken the gremlins that plagued it earlier in the fight, Touro Feather attacked the side of BruinBot, which immobilized it. Another attack soon followed, this ripped pieces off the side of BruinBot which subsequently tapped out. |

Outside RoboGames[]
Touro Feather competed on the Brazilian live circuit for a number of years before eventually seemingly being retired until mid 2022 when it once again took a trip stateside to compete at Norwalk Havoc's July event where it placed second qualifying it for the December finals where it would ultimately go 0-2 against an incredibly stacked field.
