Might as well let everyone have a gawk at the new stuff. Site will get some more info on my latest flipper bot and some more of Toms bots too, plus our joint bot Generator.

Team Odins real robot will be Tsunami. The rest are as follows-


1. Deep Impact 2

Shape: Low wedge (very similar to Double Agent in Battlebots 5.0)
Colour: Sky blue and black
Weight: 100kg
Dimensions: 100 x 60 x 30cm
Speed: 18mph
Turning Circle: 0
Ground Clearance: 1cm at rear and 0cm around the sides and the front
Armour: 2mm Hardox underneath 2mm polycarbonate.
Wheels: 2x inner Go-Cart wheels that come out at the top, so that Deep Impact 2 can run inverted.
Power: 2x Lynch 130s at 24 volts
Weapons: The weapons are the rear twin mounted carbon tipped vertical discs each spinning vertically like Nightmare, running at 1500rpm, and each machined from an extremely high density alloy that get all all their inertia and weight into the outer of the discs. Both discs get up to full speed in about 2.5 seconds.
NOTES: A much sleeker version of the previous Deep Impact. When DI2 is right way up, the discs spin vertically and are designed to flip opponents as well as damage. When DI2 is inverted the discs spin downwards and although damaging, are not as effective.
SRIMECH: Invertible
STRENGTHS: Powerful discs, good driving and speed.
WEAKNESSES: Weapon is not as effective when inverted.

2. El Persistance

SHAPE- compact invertible box shape with a front wedge (similar to Storm 2)
COLOUR- Black with red skirts
WEIGHT- 100kg
DIMENSIONS- 79 x 72 x 16cm
SPEED- about 16mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0m
GROUND CLEARANCE- virtually 0mm all around due to skirts.
ARMOUR- 3mm Grade 5 titanium top and bottom, 3mm Hardox armour at sides, front and back.
WHEELS- inside robot, 6WD
POWER- 1 X 36v MagMotor
WEAPONS- After entering as a basic rambot last series, El Persistance returns with a Wedge of Doom style linear actuated lifting arm that can lift up to 200kg with two steel prongs attached at the end. The arm is designed to slide under opponents, lift them up till their wheels, tracks or legs no longer touch the ground, and then slam them into the arena walls with the full 20HP drive. The lifter is not designed to self right the robot.
SRIMECH- invertible
NOTES- When inverted it has Srimechs are still for wimps! written on the bottom.
STRENGTHS- Pushing power and impenetrable armour
WEAKNESSES- High ground clearance when inverted and lifter is not able to work when inverted.

3. Disco Dancer 2.5

SHAPE: Low invertible box with pointed front (similar to Fluffy)
COLOUR: Flourecent greeen
WEIGHT: 100kg
DIMENSIONS: 100 x 70 x 25cm
SPEED: 17mph
TURNING CIRCLE: 0
GROUND CLEARANCE: 2mm all around
ARMOUR: After Disco Dancers weak polycarbonate last series and then Tangos appalingly rubbish hardox in PTT4, I have decided to clad DD 2.5 in 3mm titanium.
WHEELS: 2 inner Go-Cart wheels
POWER: 2 X Sinclair C5 motors
WEAPONS: After being removed for PTT4 the twin Splinter style grabbing arms have been re-attached. The robots main weapon though is still the front mounted 20kg horizontal disc spinning at 2500rpm and taking 2.5 seconds to fully spin up.
SRIMECH: Invertible
Notes: Disc teeth painted bright red. The speed has been tonbed down this series for better control and manouverability.
STRENGTHS: Powerful disc, manouverable and more reliable.
WEAKNESSES: Unreliable armour in the past

4. 2blue

SHAPE- Low wedge with rear wedge
COLOUR- Lightish blue with 2blue written on the side in pink
WEIGHT- 110kg
DIMENSIONS- 110cm X 70cm X 45cm (inc. srimech)
SPEED- 12mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0m
GROUND CLEARANCE- virtually 0mm at the front and back (thanks to the wedges), 15mm at the sides
ARMOUR- 3mm Grade 5 titanium
WHEELS- 2 X rubber tracks
POWER- 2 X S28-400 Magmotors
WEAPONS- 2 x CO2 powered flippers one on each side
SRIMECH- 2 roll bars one to the front one to the back.
NOTES- Has a pink arrow on top to point which way is forward
STRENGTHS- Powerful weapons, Can self-right easily
WEAKNESSES- vulnerable to flippers at the sides

5. Avalanche

Shape: low wedge
Colour: White and light purple.
Weight: 100kg
Dimensions: 100 x 73 x 35cm
Speed: 18mph
Turning Circle: 0
Ground clearance: 0mm at front. Virtually 0mm around the rest of the robot
Armour: 5mm Grade 5 Titanium
Wheels: 4 wheeled. Wheels stick out of the top so Avalanche is invertible
Power: 2 X 36v MagMotors
Weapons: A 10kg Tornado style spinning flail set in the centre of the wedge. The whole robot mainly acts like an avalanche. If anything gets in its way, it will plow straight through it without stopping!
SRIMECH: Invertible
NOTES: Has Avalanche painted on the top and bottom in red
STRENGTHS: High pushing power and tough armour
WEAKNESSES: Lack of damaging weapons

[knightrous]

*Armour: 2mm Hardox underneath 2mm polycarbonate.*

2mm Hardox doesnt exist, Hardox 450 @ 3.2mm is the thinnest you can get.

If you made a thin flywheel with a thick rim and put weight reducing holes in the thin part, you could achieve something like that effect. Im not about to comment on structural stability though

[knightrous]

Unobtanium is very lightweight but strong ans anything and is totally indestructible.

Hardox is good for making flywheel rims, bolting them to an aluminium core makes the weight distro way better for energy purposes too.
