Fantastic change of topic there Rich![]()
Ladies and gentlemen, presenting the latest overweight atrocity from Team Braveheart.![]()
NAME- Metal Sonic Spin Dash (formerly S.D. IV) (HW)
SHAPE- low skirted box, with fixed front wedge & sloped sides
COLOUR- blue bodywork, with red-and-white striped skirting
WEIGHT- about 100kg
DIMENSIONS- 102cm X 75cm X 20cm
SPEED- 16mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0m
GROUND CLEARANCE- virtually 0mm at front with spatula, 0mm elsewhere with skirts, 12mm elsewhere without skirts
ARMOUR- 3.75mm Hardox
WHEELS- inside robot, 6WD
POWER- 2 x LEM-130 MagMotors. These will run at 36v and produce approximately 18hp.
WEAPONS- The main weapon here is really the excellent traction, but like all its other incarnations, Spin Dash still maintains its Pussycat-style vertical saw blade, running at 3000rpm. This time, however, the four-clawed spinner sticks halfway out of the front wedge, so that when the wedge/spatula combo bashes underneath an opponent, both the wheels and the underbelly are at the mercy of the saw.
Also features several Mute-style barbs on top to hook onto other robots and let me drag them around the ring
SRIMECH- a rear-hinged arm on top with a basic low-pressure CO2 set-up. Can be used to about 30-40 times and is ONLY used for self-righting in order not to waste the gas supply
NOTES- flies the Scotland flag (though, forgot to add to pic. Shockaroonie!), has F*** Shadow! written on the underbelly in red![]()
STRENGTHS- excellent traction, fast, manoueverable, tough armour, well-skirted, great at getting under everyone else
WEAKNESSES- so-so turning ability, teething troubles?

Which robots Rich?
Your LW, FW and MW, Aaron.
I also still need:
*2 people to enter, or if Mattys entering, 1 person and Mattys entries.
*Dave Westons second Annihilator robot (Flipping Hell cant be it because its already entered in something else)
Dont forget, you can still enter the Challenge Belt and House Robot Rebellion if you havent already done so!
(Message edited by velociraptor on October 25, 2005)

Ill use realie FW Marauder and realie LW 2EZ (just shy of 25kg according latest specs)
Thanks, Matty and Aaron! Ive found info on your realies, Aaron - just to clarify, Marauder is a square pyramid with a lifter from Australian RW, and 2EZ is an American with a horizontal spinning bar, right? And Ill get the stats for Intensity and Ultimate Wedge (just realised I still need those) from the PTT5 thread, unless youve changed anything.
One place left, then! Anyone?
