Good to see people are putting things behind them

RPS XPN1

Weight- 96kg
Dimensions- H-30cm W-65cm L-90cm
Speed- 12mph
Shape- Mega-Morg Shape
Ground Clearance- 3mm all round
Turning Circle- Almost 0
Armour- 13mm Lithium Carbide
Locomotion- 4 air filled karting slicks, with great manouvreability but limited traction. This is used for quick getaways and approaches.
Power- 2 24v batteries from a ventilator, weighing in at only 3kg each. These power 2 LEM 130€™s running at 48V geared down at 2:1 with the motors running at 3600rpm. This gives us 8.8BHp
Failsafe position- Under a sliding panel at the rear.
Paint Scheme- Fluorescent yellows, pinks and oranges
Weapons- The reason we€™re using lightweight materials for armour, chassis, batteries and motors, is so we have a lot of weight left for weaponry.

Weapon 1- A static bucket scoop with screw sticking up from it, to aid in using it to push
Weapon 2- A Terrorhurtz style axe on top of the machine running off a 180mm bore ram. The axe runs from a 1.5kg CO2 canister, which is run to produce 1 tonne at the ram and about 2.5 tonnes at the tip. The axe will give us 10-20 blows a fight, and is capable of getting a dent in 6mm Grade 5 titanium. It will go straight through 3.5mm Grade 5 titanium
Weapon 3- A small scissor style mechanism, capable of lifting or crushing at a force of 3 tonnes either way.

These should work in unison to give us many necessary features.
Srimech- Axe and/or shape
Strong Against- Most things providing all weapons are working.
Weak Against- Strong Armoured rammers
Robot Compared to- Imagine a cross between Terrorhurtz, Invertebrat, X-Terminator and Drillzilla (Strength of the armour) and you€™re about there.
House robot most feared- Growler
Strengths- Good all-rounder
Weaknesses- Traction

Windiest Killer

Weight- 100kg
Dimensions- H- 27cm W-75cm L-95cm
Speed- 26mph
Shape- Same as before (See profile pic of Windy-er Killer)
Ground Clearance- 0 all round thanks to hinged skirts rear and sides and the front scoop. 3mm under skirts
Turning Circle- 0
Armour- 6mm Titanium in 4 1.5mm layers hopefully weighing in a around 20kg. The skirts are made of 3mm titanium and are sprung.
Locomotion- 4 wet go-karting tyres with added traction belts.
Power- 4 LEM-170-D127€™s running at 48v providing 32BHp and running at just over 3200rpm powered by APC Back-Up batteries
Failsafe Position- On top of the robot under a 3mm sliding panel of titanium. It€™s about 5cm down, meaning most weapons shouldn€™t be able to hit it.
Paint Scheme- Navy Blue
Weapons- After learning with the previous 2 machines, we have decided to limit the number of interchangeable weapons to one of every type of weaponry which are: Pincers, Crushers, Axe, Vertical Spinners, Horizontal spinners, lifters, spikes and scoops. Some of these weapons are in combination, so these are the weapons.

Weapon 1- A front 5mm Lithium Carbide scoop on which all other weapons are mounted.

Weapon 2- Interchangeable weapon bay

Setup 1- A pair of horizontal Hardox crushing claws with a force of 5 tonnes.
Setup 2- A General Carnage style lifting claw. It crushes with a force of 2.5 tonnes.
Setup 3- A 7kg spinning axe-head with 2 blades on the end. It€™s powered by a 4:3 running Bosch at 3000rpm. Using the Kinetic Energy Generator Program, we€™ve worked out that it gives around 2Kj of energy.
Setup 4- A 10 inch horizontal blade with 4 2-inch blades around the edge, with a 2-inch thickness. It weighs 11kg and delivers 10Kj of energy
Setup 5- A small Hardox spike that when at full speed, hit€™s with an 8 tonne force on the tip.

According to this calculator, it gives off a whopping 402Kj I€™m not quite sure how, but that€™s how it was worked out. For those who want to know what I entered, it€™s Cylinder for the outside, OD- 32€ Wall- .2525€ Length- 18€ and for the four teeth on the outside, 4€by 2€ by 6€ and both are made of titanium.
