You see, thats where youre wrong Martyn. Firestorm 5 is going to be the victor, not Firestorm 5.

Fiery storm type thing

Weight-100kg
Shape-firestorm shaped
Wheels-4 inner wheels
Speed: 20 mph
Weapon: A high pressure version of firestorms flipper
Motors-2 LEM-COs running at 36v
Power-4 x 36v 3600mAh NiCD packs
Armour-6mm titanium all around
Ground Clearance-0mm front, up to 5mm everywhere else
Turning Circle-0m
Strenghts-powerful flipper, is easily mistaken for firestorm so people overestimate it and therefore try to pull off compelx manouvers which would work againts a good machine, but this machien can counter them because its not precision driven
Weakness - its design wasnt thought through at all, may do a double flip when self righting
Summary: its firestorm but at high pressure
