Weapon 1: A very powerful flipping and piercing spike, powered by a double torsion spring. The setup is very similar to Red Square from Battlebots. It uses a very powerful double torsion spring to fire the spike.
Umm...double torsion spring? This wont work. You cant have two springs compressing in different directions, which youll get no matter which way they face...
In the unlikely event of a draw, I will ask an Outside Judge to make his or her own decision on the fight. Both results will then be averaged to give a final mark.
Um...if ones a draw, wouldnt that mean that even if averaged, the outside judge would still decide? :P
No more comments now. I promise. :P
Red Knight is done
My stats up later.
Also, Mr Stickler, You have no chance in hell in having a LEM130 in a feather weight..... People bend the laws of physics to fit in S28-150s with whyachi gearboxes now, let alone a LEM!
I made a few errors on my stats.
1) The shells on Pure Evil: Revenge of the Disc and Out of Bounds provide too much energy when being used as a ring spinner. Therefore, the shells KJ output will be halfed when using it as a ring spinner. If the opponent has been immobolised, or they are beeched on the wedge in the middle of the fight, the KJ output will be raised to 298KJ and 408KJ respectively.
2) The double torsion spring system in Artemis will remain, as I asked Tom personally on MSN if the system would work with a double torsion spring in it and he said yes.
3) Critical Damage has been completely redone thanks to help from Aaron, Andy and Steve.

NAME- Daphne (mw)
SHAPE- Invertible box
COLOUR- the robot is mostly purple, on the front is a red wig (like colour of Daphne in Scooby Doo, with a purple head band). On the hinged wedge is a painted green scarf
WEIGHT- 55kg
SPEED- 22mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0
GROUND CLEARANCE- 0mm at front due to hinged wedge, 0mm at sides and rear due to hinged skirts.

Name- Someone€™s Watching Over Me (SHW)
SHAPE- Tall Wedge
COLOUR- Dark grey
WEIGHT- 155kg
DIMENSIONS- Height: 30cm, Length: 80cm, Width: 65cm
SPEED- around 18mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0mm
GROUND CLEARANCE- 0mm at the front due to wedge extender, 5mm at sides and rear with out the skirts, 0mm with them
ARMOUR- 7mm Aluminium Boron Carbite
MOVEMENT- 4 inner vulcalon wheels, it uses a skid steer system like tornado
POWER- 4 X S28-400€™s on 24volts
WEAPONS- The robot has a 1000psi nitrogen flipper on a 80mm bore on a 100-stroke ram which should make around 3.5 tones at the ram (if I am incorrect please correct me) the nitrogen is stored in 4, 2.2kg canisters, the robot has around 40 flips in a fight, the flipper is on high pressure
NOTES- It€™s a super heavy version of Take Me Out, and if it gets under you, you will be watching over it from the arena roof.
STRENGTHS- Powerful weapon, good drive
WEAKNESSES- limited supply for the weapon
Name: Disco 5
Shape: Low Wedge with small rear wedge
Motivation: it now uses four storm 2 style Vulcalon wheels
Speed: 12.5 Mph
Weight: 100kg
Height: 300mm to top of body, 600mm to the top of the disc
Length: 1300mm
Width: 600mm
Weapon: 500mm Vert. flywheel @ 3000rpm. Has a 4.00 second spin up time due to the C40-500 Magmotor on 36v with a 2:1 twin tension cog belt reduction. The flywheel produces 31.5Kj€™s at maximum RPM but is lethal at around 1 second. The second weapon is also the srimech, this weapon is a low pressure pneumatic flipper running on 10Bar (145psi) running into a single 80mm bore ram. This produces 509kg at the ram and is then transferred into the flipper with a leverage point ratio of 1:1. This is a forward facing flipper like FireStorm and will have no problem toppling the heaviest of robots.
Chassis: 4mm Grade 5 Titanium monocoque with extra 5mm Titanium ribs to give it more rigidity.
Drive: 2 x S28-400 Magmotors @ 36v with a 10:1 Mod 2 spur gear reduction
Batteries: 90 x 3000mAh NiCD cells producing 36v @ 9amp
Color- the robot and skirts and flipper are blue and the disc is yellow
Clearance- it has 0mm at the front due to the wedge it has 0mm at the sides due to skirts its 6mm with out it also has a 0mm at the rear due to the small wedge which is there to replace the problem of the skirt being flipped into the disc. The skirts are NOT hinged and held down by torsion-springs so they shouldn€™t spring up and the rear one shouldn€™t go up into the disc
Notes- The flywheel is at the back off the robot it goes over the back of the wedge so if I can get a robot up the wedge far enough it will be hit by the disc. The skirts stop the robot landing on its side.
Name: TIRTASM
Shape: A low to the ground invertible box shape with a low centre of gravity
Motivation: It uses four Vulcalon wheels like those used in Storm II
Weight: Somewhere around 80kg without any set-ups
Ground Clearance: 10mm all the way around unless stated
SRIMECH: The robot can work invertible
Drive: It is driven by two LEM130 Lynch Motors on 36v powered by NiCAD battery packs giving around 18hp and a top speed of 20mph
Turning Circle: It turns on the spot using a Tornado like 4WD skid steering system
Armour: 5mm thick Grade 5 Titanium
Notes: Interchangeable body panels, all can be changed within the time limit of 20 minutes (Ta to Steve for some help )
Strength: Interchangeable weaponry speed and power
Weakness: High clearance
Set-ups:
1.0) A 15kg scoop made of 10mm thick Hardox - For use against bad pushers or any powerful spinners, also has a spinning flail like on tornado
2.0) A small vertical drum weighing around 5kg powered by a C40-500 Magmotor on 36v giving it around 6hp - For use against weak armoured robots
3.0) A pair of front forks similar to those on Panic Attack with carbon tips for scratching Titanium robots, they are powered by two Linear Actuators and can work either way up - For use against robots with high ground clearance and that have wheel slots I can slide them into
4.0) Eight carbon tipped spikes, four at the front, four at the back each places in the corner of the robot - For use against robots with thin Titanium, 2 spikes on the front and the back move in and out powered co2
5.0) A front concave curving horizontal scoop thing made of 10mm Hardox and 10mm rubber behind it for impacts, the outer armour is replaced with drilled 3mm thick Ti - For use against round robots of Full Body spinners, also to fit the active weapons rule it has a chain flail like used on tornado
6.0) Some 5mm thick Ti/V skirts hinged in the centre of the robot so they flop over if flipped - For use against flippers, it also has a front 8kg vertical drum
7.0) Some 5mm thick Ti/V skirts hinged very low to the bottom of the robot and each mounted with springs - For use against rammers
A low rear hinged arm going across the top of the robot made of drilled Grade 5 Titanium powered by a linear actuator. On the end is a small crusher also powered by a linear actuator so that it can clamp and then lift. There are also some hinged skirts around the edge of the robot making it hard to flippers to get under - For use against flippers, the idea is to stop them with the skirts and try and crush the flipper when its fired so I can mash up the electronics with the crusher and then dump them where I feel (Thanks to Steve for designing this mechanism )

And my realies are panic attack and razer as I already said
2) The double torsion spring system in Artemis will remain, as I asked Tom personally on MSN if the system would work with a double torsion spring in it and he said yes.
I didnt say eys to a double torsion spring. It wont work.
You did say yes Tom. I asked you about the Red Square system because Frank advised me to use it instead of a crossbow, which was my original weapon. I asked how Red Squares flipper got the power and you said a torsion spring system. I then asked whether I could use a double torsion spring sysytem and you said yes.
I am not going to contnue this arguement in here because you are not worth it, Tom.
Well, if I did say a double would work, I mustnt have been thinking straight. The spring has to compress, and if they twist in different directions youll just twist the spike into a circle. :P
I apologize for the misinformation.
No problem Tom, thank you for sorting the misunderstanding out.
Therefore, the spike on Artemis will be powered by a single torsion spring, and not a double torsion spring.
