Deciding to start a thread for the build progress of a few battlebots , I am building. I currently have designs, and materials for 3 and shall very soon have them started.

This robot's drive consist of 4 42MM gearboxes that are in the process of being obtained from a Chinese company, that shall be driven by 2 Hacked TZ85 amp ESCs.

Armor consist of 1/8 Grade 5 titanium front and rear wedges, along with 1/4 inch UHMW side armor panels.

Frame is half inch 7050 aluminum.

This robot's motors and electronics consist of a Tacon 540XL motor , and 2 banebots P60 gearboxes with RS550s for drive. The ESCs are a dynam 80 amp for weapon, and 2 Botbitz 25 amp for drive.

Armor is a mixture of .08 grade 5 titanium, and 3/8 inch UHMW.

Frame is a mixture of 3/8 inch 7050, and 6061 aluminum.

Weapon will either be a 6061 aluminum drum with hardened S7 teeth, or a 4140 steel beater.

Out of interest, why are you not designing to 30 lbs? Are you in the US?

Beautifully designed machines though just make sure that you have left enough room for the wires and the like. I designed my machines in CAD then discovered that the gaps looked much bigger on the screen.

I'm in Pennsylvania, so near me there are more 12lb competitions than 30lb. Also with the bottom beater, actually already have made a mock prototype of it on a CNC router and fit the electronics inside. Hope to do that with the wedge soon enough.

Edit: Also have competed with 15lb battlebots throughout high school for botsIQ, so 12lb/15lb robots are what I am used to.

Ah that explains it.

I should have mocked them in wood first, then I wouldn't be where I am now

Hello , after a rather hectic few weeks, finally competed with the drum design with my school's BotsIQ. The following images are of the copy of the robot, that was produced for my school's team, and is owned by my school's battlebots team.

The following image is a copy of most of the frame , owned by me. The frame is machined out of 7050. This copy is a slightly revised edition of original, and owned by me.
