Those look more useful :P
Seriously, great CAD, thanks for doing it.

Seriously, great CAD, thanks for doing it.
Okay, finally on to Knyfe. Problems, though...
quote:
SHAPE: An invertible box shape, with varying front ends. The sides and rear meet at a fine triangular point
So its not a box then? Please explain a little more than that.
quote:
WEAPONRY: Knyfe has weaponry that can be changed around to suite the robots it is facing.
1: A standard concave scoop made from 15mm Hardox, impossible to bend or scratch, and perfect for stopping FBS€™
2: A pair of Hardox spikes with diamond-sharp tips. These spikes are on a hinge, and will flip over if the robot is flipped over, and because these spikes scrape the floor, it€™s impossible to get under it whilst using them.
3: Front wedges, mounted in a similar way to those on forklift trucks, reaching out 25cm, and made of 8mm G5 Titanium, and of course getting thinner as it reaches the end of the wedges. The point of these is to ground other robots on them, and make them easier to push without resistance.
4: A 10mm Titanium static scoop with an 8cm Titanium extension. This is for getting under other rammers.
5: A 15mm Hardox wedge hinged at 42* with an extension, perfect for deflecting vertical spinners and getting under other robots.
6: A 5mm Hardox front plate with 8 rows of 6 spikes on them, making Knyfe into a useful and dangerous rammer, as the spikes are each 8.4cm long, 2.2cm in diameter, and diamond tipped. And a 100kg robot hitting you at 20mph with diamond-tipped spikes is going to hurt thin-ish and thick-ish armours.
7: A front skirt made of 10mm Hardox, impossible to get under or break off, as it€™s held on with 5mm Hardox hinges, and it sort of works as a mini-wedge. I use this for robots with other thick skirts.
8: A 42* hinges wedge at the front made of 7mm Hardox with a large 8mm Hardox hinge. The wedge is invertible and isnt effected if flipped. I use this against flippers.
I need to know if set-ups 1 and 4 work invertible, please.
quote:
GROUND CLEARANCE: 0-8mm. The front will always be 0, and the sides and rear are protected by 7mm Titanium skirts on a rotary joint that joint at the hinges.
Rotary joint? Describe please?
And looking at it, I dont think you really need that many set-ups, as they are too similar.
I wont start rendering it until you answer those questions, Paul. I dont want to get it wrong. :)
Thank you. :)
The varying front ends bit is about the interchangable weaponry, and the sides are shaped /\ rotated 90 degrees each way.
Set-up 1 does work in invertible, as its concave, but Set-Up 4 doesnt.
The skirts are on a rotary joint, and theyre held on by Hardox hindges.

I dont know what a rotary joint is. :proud:
Damn editing rule :P
Perhaps a better thing to say: where is the rotary joint, and how does it connect the hinges?
Change of mind about the skirts, theyre just attached to the hindges - no rotary joint anymore.
Mkay. Will do it first thing tomorrow. :)
By the way Kody, hows Knyfe coming along?
Slowly :lame:
If anyone would like to do an image of my vapourbot team, thatd be nice.
even though Im open for requests Chris, I HAVE to say your paint images are just plain awesome :proud:
but Im willing to give either Die-Ceratops or Orka a try anyday :proud:
Cant say the same for my handheld drawings, Im afraid. I tried re-creating Orka, Die Ceratops and Spring-BOK! and they just looked wrong.
Very nice, very pink :proud:
Its maroon, mlad. :proud:
...no, its still pink :proud:
It said maroon in the colour options... :P
*checks program* :P
I was referring to the background if that helps...(although having said that, the flipper does look satiny purple :P)
I know you were. :P And actually, the flipper is brick red. It must be your monitor then (mine is working well :P)
(Message edited by kodster on June 08, 2008)
Its still pink, not maroon.
Pink, purple, and if you look at the front for long enough it begins to look like an anime character. :proud: :proud:
(EDIT: might be my monitor, Im viewing it on a laptop and the screens at a weird angle...still, pink. Anime. :P)

Its no Kronic, though. :proud:
Id say its a brown vapour
If Knyfe is too much of an issue, can you do a render of Heyght (my new vapour found on the VED board)
P.S: Does anyone know the strongest MagMotor is at 36V or 48V, depending on the maximum voltage, and how heavy it is?
Had to do this for a tournament reason, Steve. :proud:

As I said in the Mini-Tourn of Death, Kody, that Spin Dash Unleashed CAD looks AWESOME! :proud:
Is that supposed to look like Donald Hutson designed it? :proud:
I caught something like that in Pokemon Ruby the other day
Id love to compete against that. 1 blow and its all bent out of shape.
Looks cool though.
My renders are now available for your own amusement at: http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm77/djstickler1/http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm77/djstickler1/
:)

Perhaps Ill do some more
Liam, do you want CADs of these done? I might be able to find some time for them. :)
Thanks Kody, that would be fantastic! :)
Decided to do a bit of revision to achilles; now with extra goldeness....

Sorry, Liam, but I decided to continue updating the Team Zlayerz HW renders...and now theyre finished!!! :proud:
Will start work on yours tomorrow. :)
