Let's give this a go.
Dreadnought Mk2.
Shape- A sleek and low wedge with angular armour plating on the sides/rear corners, and a steep wedge at the back.
Colour- Gunmetal Grey.
Weight- 100kg
Armour- 8mm Ti10v Alloy treated with Silicon Carbide for the main chassis and armour, with internal bulletproof Aluminium drivetrain protectors for additional spinner resistance.
Additionally, there is a 4mm layer of Lexan Polycarbonate mounted underneath the Flipper for additional resistance against overhead weaponry, and the areas around the Flipper hinges are thicker at 10mm.
Drive and Power- 2 Lynch LEM130 Motors, geared 9:1 for superior acceleration/control and powered by 36v 5.0ah NiMH Battlepacks.
Locomotion- Two internal Go-Kart wheels, with foam tyres to nullify puncture damage.
Top Speed- 20-25mph
Ground Clearance- Zero at the front, about 1mm for the sides, and 2mm for the rear.
Turning Circle- Zero.
Dimensions- [Will add]
Weaponry- Front-hinged Pneumatic Flipper, running on Low Pressure CO² Gas (Ala Ripper or M2) to enable it to run longer than a standard High Pressure one whilst still maintaining a good degree of power, and equipped with a 6mm-thick strip of Polycarbonate along the top for keeping opponents trapped.
Srimech- Can use the weapon to quickly flip itself back over.
Notes- Very fast and powerful. Design is based on two previous successful machines from lower weight classes.
NOTE: These aren't the final ones, since I am not good with FRA-style stats. Curse this place and its refusal to use numbers, AAAARGH

Excellent. So, would my stats be reasonably practical? As said, I'm hopeless at FRA-style stats, so do let me know if there's anything I need to change.
It looks ok, not sure about the batteries, i just tend to leave them out though.
Looks nice and different this one. Can I enter Air please? It is my new robot, fighting for its debut at Burgess Hill. Real robot so not sure if its allowed??
