    Thanks for the help matt,

    We shall take the interchangeable weapons idea and make a couple of designs, but we don't know what voltage the weapon would be.

    Our current dimensions are
    Height: 15cm
    Length without weapons: 35cm
    Length with weapons: 50cm
    Width: 25cm

    We also want the robot to weigh about 10th without the weapons and 13kg with our traditional 3 spikes, this is so if we have interchangeable weapons, then we would have to make the weight of the weapon 2-3kg.

    What I mean when I say best is what would be best to throw featherweights and if possible house robots mentioned in the previous post, but we want it to be powerful an fast to load and reload (possibly a 2 second window), we want our robot to be what Diotor was to heavyweights, to put on a good show, only without the fur and eyes.

    As we don't know what voltage the weapon would be, we are still stuck as to what we should use. Weather an 12V or an 18v, as I said to the team "we want our robot to be cheap and be destroyed rather than be expensive and find it not work on the day.

    If anyone else would like to make suggestions as to what we should use and what interchangeable weapons you would like to see, your support is always notified.

    Thanks for the support
    Many thanks
