Roo 2
Weight- 100.8kg (Weight distribution available on request)
Dimensions- H- 17.5cm D- 130cm
Speed- 15mph in driving speed.
Shape- Low wide cylinder
Ground Clearance- Around 5.5mm
Turning Circle- 0
Armour- 2mm titanium over 2mm Polypropylene over another layer of 2mm titanium.
Locomotion- 4-x air filled tyres with expansive hole-filling mousse inserted in order to prevent puncturing.
Power- 4 x S28-150 Magmotors running at 24V off 2 packs of 24v Nicads. This produces 12BHp as well as only weighing a total of 13kg.
Removable Link- In the very centre of the machine. Positioned so few axes will have heads powerful nor long enough to reach it, whilst the shafts must be long and this will reduce their accuracy.
Weapon- A 40kg 1cm titanium ring around the outside of the machine with 8x 4-inch long steel teeth with a chamfered triangular design in order to maximize damage. It’s powered by a LEM-170 geared down by 5:2 giving out an output speed of 1286.4rpm. With a reasonably high horse power motor spinning it, and a low yet deadly top speed, it should get up to speed in around 2.8 seconds and has an output of 166Kj.
Srimech- Invertible
Strong against- Everything really.
Weak against- Very quick rammers, Me
Robot Most Compared to- Gyrobot?
House Robot Most Feared- Probably Growler
Strengths- Destructive, Invertible, Nippy, Well Armoured
Weaknesses- we’ll add those as we find them out. The only one I can think of is that the armour may be vulnerable to axes.
Previous Battle record- Positive 6:2

PRP (Powerpoint reaches Pressure-point)
Weight- 93.8kg (As ever, weight distribution available on request)
Dimensions- H- 25cm, L+W- 65cm
Speed- 9.6mph
Shape- Low Square Cuboid
Ground Clearance- 7mm chassis, dead zero everywhere else
Turning Circle- 0
Armour- 4mm RSP-707 TG top, 7mm Hardox on sides above skirt level, 3mm ti underneath, 5mm polycarbonate base
Locomotion- 4 240mm foam filled wheels
Power- 4 x S28-150 Magmotors, producing 11.72BHp
Removable Link Position- Underneath rear skirt about 10cm back.
Weapon 1- The skirts. These are angled to lie dead flat on the ground, as well as being at 37 degrees, which is an optimum angle for sliding underneath. These are to drag robots up, to counteract flippers, and to provide a way of combining defence with the offence.
Weapon 2- On top of the machine is an 18kg spinning bar powered by a single LEM 130 off 48V. it spins at 2600rpm and produces a nasty 83Kj of energy, which we predict should be able to nicely cut through up to a cm of titanium.
Srimech- Another incredible part of the machine. When we are flipped, the bar naturally slows down. When the speed reduces to a speed of around 60rpm, at which point such action will not damage the mechanism, 2 latches will automatically stop the blade from spinning. This will enable us to fire 2 low pressure arms, each with around 14 fires before the pressure drops. This should be enough per fight
Strengths- Good all-round machine
Weaknesses- Can be beaten by a strong, fast, powerful flipper as well as a couple of single machines that shan’t be named. Very little will beat this one as it is designed along the same line as Spinverter, in the sense that it’s the best of everything in a small package.

The following chnages have been made to this machine:
The armour is now 8mm Lithium Carbide, taking it up to 96kg.
The axe shaft is now made of titanium as opposed to steel, enabling us to have a heavier axe head. The shaft weight around 6kg and the axe head weighs around 3kg. This is made of the same stuff as Iron Awe's axehead, as this widens holes considerably on impact.
This takes the robots weight up to 98.5kg
Hax0r'd off Ha-ka
Weight- 93kg- (WDOR)
Dimensions- H- 40cm, L- 1m, W- 70cm
Speed- 13.3mph or 5.3 m/s
Shape- Box wedge, wedge is about 45 degree angle
Locomotion- 4x Solid aluminium hubs with old karting wets around it
Ground Clearance- 1mm at sides, 3mm at rear, 0 at front
Turning Circle- 0
Power- 4x Dustin motors running on 36V powered by 3 TMC 36V batteries/ They produce a total of 8.84BHp
Armour- 3mm Lithium Carbide over 3mm RSP-707 TG
Weapon 1- A large Mortis style axe weighing a total of 6.5kg, swinging down with a force of around 4.5 tonnes.
Weapon 2- A small strip of ti/vanadium alloy that should enable the wedge to slide under easier
Removable Link Position- Under a small 6mm steel electromagnetically secured panel at the back of the robot.
Srimech- invertible, but the axe will right it if necessary due to the fact that the head is angled back into a hole, which keeps the head inside the body.
Strengths- Powerful weaponry, Manouvreable, good acceleration, well armoured
Weaknesses- Not the best pushing power, limited CO2

Windiest Killer
Weight- 100kg
Dimensions- H- 27cm W-75cm L-95cm
Speed- 26mph
Shape- Same as before (See profile pic of Windy-er Killer)
Ground Clearance- 0 all round thanks to hinged skirts rear and sides and the front scoop. 3mm under skirts
Turning Circle- 0
Armour- 6mm Titanium in 4 1.5mm layers hopefully weighing in a around 20kg. The skirts are made of 3mm titanium and are sprung.
Locomotion- 4 wet go-karting tyres with added traction belts.
Power- 4 LEM-170-D127’s running at 48v providing 32BHp and running at just over 3200rpm powered by APC Back-Up batteries
Failsafe Position- On top of the robot under a 3mm sliding panel of titanium. It’s about 5cm down, meaning most weapons shouldn’t be able to hit it.
Paint Scheme- Navy Blue
Weapons- After learning with the previous 2 machines, we have decided to limit the number of interchangeable weapons to one of every type of weaponry which are: Pincers, Crushers, Axe, Vertical Spinners, Horizontal spinners, lifters, spikes and scoops. Some of these weapons are in combination, so these are the weapons.
Weapon 1- A front 5mm Lithium Carbide scoop on which all other weapons are mounted.
Weapon 2- Interchangeable weapon bay
Setup 1- A pair of horizontal Hardox crushing claws with a force of 5 tonnes.
Setup 2- A General Carnage style lifting claw. It crushes with a force of 2.5 tonnes.
Setup 3- A 7kg spinning axe-head with 2 blades on the end. It’s powered by a 4:3 running Bosch at 3000rpm. Using the Kinetic Energy Generator Program, we’ve worked out that it gives around 2Kj of energy.
Setup 4- A 10 inch horizontal blade with 4 2-inch blades around the edge, with a 2-inch thickness. It weighs 11kg and delivers 10Kj of energy
Setup 5- A small Hardox spike that when at full speed, hit’s with an 8 tonne force on the tip.
Srimech- Invertible
Strong Against- Non-Pushers, Flippers, Axes
Weak Against- Crushers, Discs on Arms
Robot most compared to- Storm 2 with Tornado’s weapons
House robot most feared- Matilda
Strengths- Fast, Strong, Versatile
Weaknesses- Anyone stronger

B2B (Back 2 Basics)
Weight- 98.1kg
Dimensions- L-75cm W-54cm H- 36.5cm
Speed- 8.5mph/ 3.8 m/s. This however still gives excellent acceleration and the speed of the hits will help us do the Tornado thing
Shape- Normal Wedge, with rollbars on the back panel made from welded 1cm titanium.
Locomotion- 2 x 270mm diameter wheels with custom cut treads from an old adapted Go-Kart
Ground Clearance- 0 at front, 0 underneath hinged skirts at sides, 4mm underneath skirts and at back.
Turning Circle-0
Power- 2 x 24V S28-150 Motors running off 2 x 24V 3 amp Nimh batteries weighing a total of 2.5kg for the batteries plus 3kg for the motors (Lightweight or what). It gives a total (Presuming efficiency is at maximum) of 4.42BHp. These are geared down to 22:1 as too not cook the motors, but still keep the low top speed. Not the best shover, but with the wedge shaped, the idea will be that before pushing you scoop the wheels off the ground.
Armour- 7mm Titanium/Vanadium Alloy all around weighing a total of 28.4940747kg for the whole body. The titanium bars on the back weigh a total of about 8.4kg.
Chassis- The chassis is made of 1cm aluminium bars, and weighs around 12kg.
Weapon 1- The weapon is a Helium powered flipper, with 2 x 3kg helium rams, capable of firing about 40 times within the course of a fight, and despite running off just 400psi, is easily capable of flipping 250kg. The rams in total, plus gas, and bottles etc. weighs around 16kg and the actual flipper is made out of 4mm Titanium/Vanadium alloy and is around two-thirds the width of the body and goes up the whole wedge. It weighs 5.022kg.
Weapon 2- the bottom of the front wedge is an entirely detachable wedge made of 1cm aluminium. It’s been designed to be heavy enough to prevent the front wheelying when driving, and therefore means that it should be simple to flip any robots over. It covers about 10cm of the wedge, and is more than capable of resisting attacks. It’s been designed well and uses the force of gravity and balance to keep it down, whilst only weighing 3.288384kg in total.
Removable Link Position- In a hole with a swinging flap about 10cm into the back panel, but you have to get past the rollbars to get to it.
Srimech- The flipper acts as a self-righter, and will always land on his wheels thanks to the rollbars on the back, once we self-right. The only time this won’t work is if we can’t get enough pressure in the ram to fire us over.
Strengths- Powerful, long-lasting weaponry. Manouvreable. Flipper should never fail to slide underneath.
Weaknesses- Not the best pusher in a straight shoving battle.

BIACS-LE
Weight- 100.3kg (WDOR)
Dimensions- H- 65cm, L- 65cm, W- 75cm
Speed- 11mph, 5.1 m/s
Shape- Somewhere between S6 Sabretooth and Atilla the Drum.
Locomotion- 2x Motorbike wheels with screws embedded. These are bigger diameter than the robot itself.
Ground Clearance- Massive
Turning Circle- 0
Armour- A cage made from a 3mm titanium mesh with moulded 8mm fibre glass armour over that.
Power- 2x S28-400’s at 24V giving 9BHp. These are powered by some TMC batteries at 24V.
Removable link position- Inside the left wheel, as far in as possible whilst keeping it accessible.
Weapon- As before, the weapon is a 300mm 18kg vertical disc on an arm, which can swing right through the whole arc of the robot, and is capable of coming down with a thump. The blades are mounted diagonally, which means that they are capable of both flipping and ripping. The cage can also swing over the top, protecting the axle and wheels from the side that is unprotected by the disc. This means that other than the cage, nothing can be damaged apart from the disc. It should produce about 62Kj. It’s powered by another S28-400 on 24V and has a spin-up time of 4.7 seconds.
Srimech- Invertible
Strengths- Powerful weaponry. Manouvreable, Strong
Weaknesses- Low traction, slow acceleration.
