For Tormenta 3, just look at Tormenta 2 but with hardox. It can still do all the crazy flippy things Tormenta 2 did but this one is built like a brick.

I fought tormenta 2 in Germany once. Looking forward to that fight.
Sam, I'll have the HDPE welder with me. And sheets of 5 and 10mm.
I think we'll need it.
Quick question. Are robots shortlisted for robochallenge championship events based on a robots performance throughout the year prior to this event or is it simply a random draw? Or does it go on weapon type, originality etc... no offense intended just some1 who hasnt competed seriously since 2008 who is building a competition fw for my teenage son. It wont be ready for about 8 weeks lol so just gathering info.
I have a spinner near completion so its difficult to enter other events if you get me

A little bit of all that. They want good well build machines and diversity in nationality. Experience is also a big factor.
There are some new machines but they come from reputable teams with a history of interesting/destructive/fun robots. Past showings, potential performance, machine diversity, team history all play a part.
This is the first Robochallenge event where people have had to 'audition' for places. Before now you were pretty much guaranteed a place if you signed up but with it being the world champs, having 20 or so foreign teams coming to compete and the need to have the best of the best fighting it out, things need to be done differently to get the top 50 machines in the arena.
I understand now thanks

How big are the chances that a starting polevaulter gets selected for the olympics?
If you're new I think the key is well detailed build diary.
