    Im in on this one

    My real robot is Hells Teeth, from RWE 2: New Blood

    my other robots:

    Flaming Hell

    Weight: 100kg
    Dimensions: 90x90x60 cm
    Weapon: a triangular spinning cage with 3 sharpened bot openers on each end, weighing 5kg each, spinning at 3000 RPM, powered by a Lemco on 36v
    Power: 2x Bosch 750 motors at 24v (its been made so that the cage motor gets 36v but the drive only gets 24, as the drive is ok as it is on 24V)
    Shape: circular base with triangular cage atop
    Speed: 15mph
    Drive power: 4bph
    Notes: small electric actuators in the rotor arms in order to self right. They have been shock proofed so that the weapon impact will not bust them, and the cage spins 2mm from the ground. Small bearings for the cage and the far set apart wheels give it increased stability for a FBS
    Turning Circle: 0cm
    Armour: 3mm titanium
    Wheel Type - 4 small wheelbarrow type wheels (no need for great traction)
    Strengths: Power of cage
    Weakness: Unpredictable bounce off from an opponent

    Hell Machine

    Weight: 100kg
    Dimensions: 140x100x60 cm
    Weapons: Lemco motor powered axe (run through gear box) that can deliver an axe blow of 3 tons (according to my calculations) and rear linier actuator operated lifting arm that can flip 600kg
    Srimech: Side arms and rear arm
    Speed: 15mph
    Transmission: a 4 wheeled Tornado set up(36v and same gearing), but with a pair of Mag C40€™s in place of the Bosch motors, and a set of NiMh in place of the heavy Lead Acids the real thing uses.
    Turning Circle: 0m
    Ground clearance: 0 at the scoop and wedge edge, 2mm the rest of the way around
    Wheel Type: Go-kart
    Body Shape: scoop fronted, wedged back
    Armour: 8mm Grade 5 Titanium and 2mm stainless steel
    Colour: Black with flame face on scoop and name in blood writing on side, devil head on rear wedge
    Strengths: Enormous pushing power (About 12hp), EXTREMELY powerful axe, relentless in attacking (until a robot is immobile)
    Weakness: Dislikes spinners, doesnt like weapons that use carbon

    Name: Sheer Hell
    Weight: 100kg
    Dimensions: 150cm x 80cm x 120cm
    Shape: low angled box with disc on the front like 13 black and rear 259 disc, style
    Weapons: A front mounted Horizontal spinning disc and a rear mounted vertical spinning disc, both running at 4500rpm and delivering a blow of 75kj
    Top Speed: 13 mph
    Transmission: 4 Rubbertex coated aluminium wheels (Rubbertex is a grippy rubber substance used on the K*bot tables) run on a Smidsy type wheel system, and run by a pair of Bosch 750€™s and a bank of Ni-cads to give me more weight for armour
    Armour: 8mm Titanium
    GC: 3mm either side and back, 7mm under the disc at the front, variable at the sides of the disc
    Srimech: powerful electric arms mounted on the top
    Turning Circle: 0cm
    Colour: Black, with Sheer Hell written on wither side in Blood writing
    Strengths: devastating weapons
    Weakness: carbon based weapons
    Notes: will NEVER turn the vertical flywheel into an opponent as it will throw SH over. Also, counter-acting discs (vertical and horizontal) will keep it stable, and if it is flipped, it does a funny jig in the air before coming down, most of the time, right way up

    Name: Flipping Hell
    Dimensions: 120cm x 80cm x 40cm
    Weight: 100kg
    Shape: steep wedge front, elongated wedged tail (not used as a weapon)
    Weapon: 1000psi 2 pivot pneumatic flipper that can generate enough momentum and force to throw a 100kg robot 25ft up and 20ft across
    Top speed: 18mph
    Transmission: just like Razer€™s
    GC: 0 at the front, 2mm down the side, 4mm at the back end
    Turning Circle: 0cm
    Armour: 6mm aluminium and steel alloy
    Colour: black with a face made of fire on the front wedge face
    Strengths: Can win with one weapon shot
    Weakness: None
    Notes: 4 wheels, the rear two of which are Razer type, so the flipper is always facing its opponent, Motors and gas bottles/piping bolted down especially, since that was knocked it out of the last tournement

    Name: Jaws of Hell
    Weight: 100kg
    Dimensions (LWH): 130 x 100 x 25 cm
    Body shape: Tornado shaped, but with 6 wheels
    Weapons: a hydraulic tearer. The idea is that the large blade that is edged on both sides punctures the armour of an opponent, and a 3000psi hydraulic ram separates them, causing a huge tear in the armour. The edge is carbon tipped, so Titanium is not even there as far as Im concerned.
    Power: a pair of LEM 130s on 36v running through a Storm 2 transmission (with 6 vulcalon wheels, with small screws in them for that little extra)
    Armour: 4mm Hardox and 2mm stainless steel
    Srimech: invertible
    Speed: 27mph
    Colour: Black, with a large red pentagram on the top
    Strengths: vicious weapon
    Weakness: Unique weapon, may be mis-understood

    Name: Helliant
    Weight:100kg
    Dimensions: 100 x 100 x 35 cm
    Shape: Low wedge, rounded back
    Weapons: A 750 PSI pneumatic arm that is mainly for self righting but can be used as a weapon, and a set of 3 Kill Saws at the back. The Kill Saws four, 20 inch, carbide tipped, SystiMatic saw blades. The blades are powered by a 48 volt, 3.5 horse power motor and can shred titanium and many other things too.
    GC: 0mm at the front, 1mm the rest of the way
    Wheels: go-karts
    Power: a pair of Bosch 750s on 36v, whereas the weapon is on 48v
    Speed: 18mph
    Armour: 2mm stainless steel and 4mm aluminium
    Colour: black, with a flame graphic coming from the front and a demon head on it
    Strengths: rip-roaring weapon
    Weakness: iffy armour

    Name: All Hell
    Weight: 100kg
    Dimensions: 100 x 100 x 50cm
    Shape: Vortex, but without the motor sticking out the back
    Weapons: A 27kg outer-rim weighted steel vertical flywheel, Powered by a B&S motor at 48v and run through a 40:1 ratio chain and sprocket transmission. The disc runs at 3500RPM but packs a 79Kj wallop (I worked it out, its not that disimaler from Matildas tail disc).
    GC: 3mm all the way around
    Wheels: 2 x Vulcanised Aluminium hubs
    Power: a pair of Bosch 750 watts motors running on 36v (Like Flaming hell, wired so the drive gets less and the weapon gets more) running through a 10:1 ratio gearbox
    Speed: 12MPH
    Armour: 6mm Stainless Steel
    Colour: Black, with pentagrams and demon faces painted in random places
    Strengths: Devestating Weapon
    Weakness: No srimech as such, but can run on the disc, which is then thrown into reverse which causes the robot to flip over, Stinger Style. tipped right way up

    Cassius 2 (S3)
    Typhoon 2 (S7)
    Firestorm (latest version)
    Phrizbee (BB5.0)

    Name: Ze Newie
    Motivation: Wheeled (x 4, 120mm diameter)
    Speed: 16.02 KM/H (10.01 MPH)
    Weight: 96.93kg maximum.
    Height: 250mm down to 156mm.
    Length: 956mm
    Width: 790mm
    Ground Clearance: 12mm at sides and rear, ~0 at front with the shovel.
    Weapon: The €œweapon€ so to speak is a pneumatic Biohazard-style arm. It€™s powered by two 100mm bore, 140mm stroke rams at 150psi, giving enough force to throw other bots over with ease. However, its purpose is more to self-right the robot than anything (35 flips, mainly conserved for that purpose), as the main weapon is in the indestructible nature of the robot and the power of the drivetrain.
    Drive: The drive is a pair of Perm PMG-132 motors at 36V (or 48V if the competition allows, kicking the speed up about 5-odd KM/H and increasing the torque likewise). They€™re geared down 4:1 onto a pair of 150mm hardox-hubbed wheels with Vulcanised rubber tires, and in the same gap chain-driven to the front pair of identical wheels (no geardown, of course). The torque & ramming power this thing has is incredible, especially with the traction.
    Batteries: 6 x 24V 3Amp Battlepacks, giving 36V 12Ah. Another two can easily be added to give 48V 12Ah if the rules apply. All are shock-mounted to the chassis.
    Chassis/Armour: The chassis acts as the armour in places; its solid (drilled) 30mm x 30mm Titanium/Vanadium Grade 5 alloy bars with holes drilled to keep weight down.
    The armour varies in places; the wheel guards are 15mm Titanium/Vanadium alloy, the main body plates either side of the €˜weapon€™ are 20mm Ti/V and the back plate is 17.5mm Ti/V. The shovel, which almost acts as the front armour, is 20mm Hardox with the 15mm Ti/V front plates behind it.
    Electronics: Runs a RoboWars.org BMC speed controller with Hitec Focus SS-3 75mhz PCM 3ch Radio and a 3-axis computer Gyro for maxium control and handling. Uses 150amp rated Anderson power pole connectors and locking pins. Electronics are shock mounted and mounting in a floating style encased in HD (High Density) foam.
    Notes: The arm provides enough kinetic energy to overcome the inertia of the robot and flip it back over with ease and in a controlled fashion. The robot€™s driving ease cannot be overstated; half of the purpose the robot serves is to prove that ease of driving can outdo the most powerful, but uncontrollable, weapon. It corners like a dream on skid-steering and has brute force enough to outdo the pushiest of pushbots.

    The other half of the purpose is to attempt to create an €˜immovable object€™ to match all the €˜irresistable forces€™ people are aiming at. Try breaking this one down; its impossible.

    Weight:

    Weapon arm = 3.67kg
    Pneumatics system = 13.64kg
    Wheels = 3.21kg
    Gearboxes = 2.10kg
    Batteries = 7.38kg
    Armouring = 34.78kg
    Weapon mounting and weapon drive components = 3.4kg
    Electronics = 1.2kg
    Drive motors = 22.55kg
    NutsnBolts + Other pieces = 5kg max. Probably about 2.3.

    Maximum weight: 96.93kg (allowing room for extra battery packs)

    Name: Automatic Schmuck
    Motivation: Wheeled (x 4, 120mm diameter main, 30mm €˜castor€™ front wheels)
    Speed: 24.16KM/H (15.10 MPH)
    Weight: 98.42kg
    Height: 130mm at peak; variable from 28mm upwards.
    Length: 870mm
    Width: 743mm
    Ground Clearance: 0 at sides w/ skirting, 0 at rear with €˜hinged€™ wedge, 0 at front with wedge; 12mm at the point nearest the back wheels otherwise, down to 5mm at the front wheels.
    Weapon: 17.14kg kinetic-energy bar. 13.10kg, 111.2cm long bar, 2 2.02kg hardox weights (one at each end). It€™s powered by a C40-300 on a separate power supply at 24V, which when geared down 2.4:1 gives me a safe 1700RPM (spin-up = less than 0.5 seconds), and a heck of a lot of KE to transfer at the tips. The weapon system is held securely in place on steel box-section supports parallel to the wedged top of the robot, minimizing shock output to the rest of the robot.
    Drive: 4 S28-300 3€ MagMotors, 2 on each rear wheel, on 24V. This gives me easily 10HP and a lot fo torque despite the healthy speed.
    Batteries: 2 x 24V 3Ah Battlepacks (drive), 2 x 12V 3Ah Battlepacks (weapon). They are all shock-mounted, and slot together due to the unique curving on the outside of Battlepacks, allowing secure holding.
    Chassis/Armour:
    Chassis: 30 x 30 x 4mm Ti/V box section.
    Armour: 13mm Ti/V all round. The skirting is 9mm Hardox plating, as they are all very small, and the two wedges are made from 6mm Hardox plating.
    Electronics: Runs a RoboWars.org BMC speed controller with Hitec Focus SS-3 75mhz PCM 3ch Radio and a 3-axis computer Gyro for maxium control and handling. Uses 150amp rated Anderson power pole connectors and locking pins. Electronics are shock mounted and mounting in a floating style encased in HD (High Density) foam.
    Notes: Spinning upside down, paired with the wedged style of the bot, allows a very quick & easy form of self-righting. Designed to knock the shit through some more superbots, for old times€™ sake.

    Weight:

    Weapon arm = 17.14kg
    Wheels = 2.21kg
    Gearboxes = 4.20kg
    Batteries = 7.38kg
    Armouring = 29.86kg
    Weapon mounting and weapon drive components = 9.14kg
    Weapon motor = 5.04kg
    Electronics = 1.2kg
    Drive motors & mounts= 12.25kg
    NutsnBolts + Other pieces = 10kg max. Probably about 6.4.

    Maximum weight: 98.42kg

    SURROUND SOUND IS A CLUSTERBOT. THE NEXT TWO STATS APPLY.

    Amp Of Doom!

    Motivation: Wheeled (x 4, 100mm diameter main, 30mm castors)
    Speed: 16.20 km/h (10.125MPH)
    Weight: 37kg maximum.
    Height: 150mm, 190mm with control panel.
    Length: 190mm
    Width: 370mm
    Ground Clearance: 8mm at front, sides and rear. 2kg of ballast and most of the components close to the floor makes it very, very hard to flip though.
    Weapon: Drivetrain. It does have an active srimech behind the control panel powered by a third S28-400 on 24V. This rights it quickly & easily.
    Drive: 2 x S28-400s on 24V geared down 7:1 onto 100mm custom-built vulcanized-rubber wheels on titanium hubs.
    Batteries: 4 x 12V 3Ah Battlepacks.
    Chassis/Armour: 10mm Grade 5 Ti/V alloy monocoque with steel corner protectors. It also has a 5mm Titanium grille on the front, made from many small straight pieces of 5mm Grade 5 to tangle and deflect spinners. It also has 6mm polycarbonate covering all surfaces, and 2kg of ballast on the floor to increase the difficulty of uprighting it.
    Electronics: Runs a RoboWars.org IBC speed controller with Hitec Focus SS-3 75mhz PCM 3ch Radio and a 3-axis computer Gyro for maxium control and handling. Uses 150amp rated Anderson power pole connectors and locking pins. Electronics are shock mounted and mounting in a floating style encased in HD (High Density) foam.
    Notes: The arm provides enough kinetic energy to overcome the inertia of the robot and flip it back over with ease and in a controlled fashion. This thing has ultimate driving ease, is impossible to break down in any way and has great pushing power, especially at this level.

    The Cabinet

    Motivation: Wheeled (x 4, 100mm diameter main, 30mm castors)
    Speed: 16.20 km/h (10.125MPH)
    Weight: 62kg maximum.
    Height: 150mm, 190mm with control panel.*
    Length: 190mm*
    Width: 370mm*
    (dimensions not including cabinet in front, which is 190 x 520 x 400)
    Ground Clearance: 8mm at front, sides and rear. 2kg of ballast and most of the components close to the floor makes it very, very hard to flip though.
    Weapon: 1.5kW running through four 12€ Celestion speakers inside the cabinet, enough to easily blow a super-heavyweight backwards on kinetic energy alone.It operates at 17Hz (below human hearing range) at roughly 160dB, 10000 times the threshold of pain!
    Drive: 2 x S28-400s on 24V geared down 7:1 onto 100mm custom-built vulcanized-rubber wheels on titanium hubs.
    Batteries: 4 x 12V 3Ah Battlepacks.
    Chassis/Armour: 10mm Grade 5 Ti/V alloy monocoque with steel corner protectors. It also has a 5mm Titanium grille on the front, made from many small straight pieces of 5mm Grade 5 to tangle and deflect spinners.
    Electronics: Runs a RoboWars.org IBC speed controller with Hitec Focus SS-3 75mhz PCM 3ch Radio and a 3-axis computer Gyro for maxium control and handling. Uses 150amp rated Anderson power pole connectors and locking pins. Electronics are shock mounted and mounting in a floating style encased in HD (High Density) foam.
    Notes: The arm provides enough kinetic energy to overcome the inertia of the robot and flip it back over with ease and in a controlled fashion. This thing has ultimate driving ease, is impossible to break down in any way and has great pushing power, especially at this level. It selfrights via either the speakers or a ram at the back of the cabinet, there are small round pieces on the small sides of the cabinet to stop it landing on them.

    Ill find this one later, the version I want is somewhere on the FVA forums. :P
