Beware I have changed Fireflys name to Enterprise.
here goes Ill just enter flippy 2 exactly the same as flippy except for spikes along the side and because of that it goes at 4mph
..Tim, just give up. If you keep giving stats like that, youll NEVER be allowed in any tournys.
Entrants:
Wedge Devo
Seggy 4.2
Back 2 Rock 2
Malaria
The Windmill
Love Bite
Novastorm 2
Bloody Tears 2
Wolf
FireFly
Flipping Hell
HellMachine
Axe To Fall
Space for 3 more machine.
Ill start the draw as soon as they are all in.
Team Name: Team BriteSpark
Representing: Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales
Robot Name: Dennis The Menace
Length/Width/Height: 100 x 40 x 25 - 35cm (The height of the robot increases as you move from the front to the back).
Weight: 100KG
Motivation: 2 foam filled go kart wheels made of uber-tough rubber.
Speed: About 18mph
Weapon: The main weapon is a 20kg spinning drum, powered by 2 Huqsvarna 3120XP chainsaw motors. The weapon is capable of changing gears during a match. Originally, the drum spins at 2400RPM when geared down 10:1, but this can be increased to 2:1 at systematic intervals of 2 gearings (10:1, 8:1, 6:1, 4:1 2:1). The 4mm Titanium drum is fitted with 2 horizontal Hardox bars, welded, screwed and riveted on to avoid them coming off. These are designed not only to flip, but to rip off skirts and armouring. The drum can hit with over 10kJ of force when spinning at 2400RPM, and increases to an astonishing 243kJ when spinning at 2:1 gearing (12000RPM).
Drive: 24v Sinclair C5 motors.
Power: 4 x 24v NiCad batteries.
Armour: 5mm Titanium and Vanadium alloy.
Ground Clearance: 4mm all around.
Turning Circle: 0M
Notes: The robot is invertible, and is completely symmetrical when flipped, meaning the performance isn€™t altered at all. The robot€™s shape is basically a box, but with the height increasing as you move from front to the back. The robot has 2 thick Hardox spikes on each side, which means it can pass the passive weaponry rule, and these also stop the robot resting on its side. To stop it resting on its back, the rear of the robot is slightly curved.
what about my robot
Tim, just... go away.
Get it through your head, Tim: Your stats are more unrealistic than a armored bathtub driving through a wall, running over the Wicked Black Beast of- AAGH!, being flung at King Arthur and his men by crazed frenchmen, and then getting destroyed by the Spanish Inqusition. THATS why youre never allowed in any tournys. Hell, yours make Kustom look UNDERWEIGHT!
