Name: Instant Zen
Motivation: 2WD
Speed: 20cm/sec
Weight: 150g
Height: 30mm
Length: 100mm
Width: 75mm
Weapon: 35g Titanium spinning shell powered by a Torcman 200-5-18 motor geared 1:1 at 8000rpm.Second weapon is a thin .75mm titanium wedge power from the spinning shell via a 5g micro servo that pushes a nub into one of the cam bumps on the spinning shell. This fires the little flipper with enough force to toss a 150g weight 100-250mm into the air.
Drive: 2 x 8gram Sanyo NA 75:1 gearmotors with 20mm foam wheels
Batteries: A single 11.1v 340mAh Kokam Lithium Polymer battery pack.
Armor: titanium spinning shell protects the top and sides, a 1mm aluminium base plate protects the underbelly
Notes: selfright via mauler dance. Uses a pair of scorpion single channel speed controllers and a phoenix 15 brushless controller for the weapon. Everything is opoxied together. No weight left for anything else to hold it together

WEAPONS- It has a rear hinged flipping arm, powered by a lem 130 on 60volts

FIRE! I smell a cooked Lem 130....

Lem 130 is a 12-24v motor with the ability to go to 36v with current limiting. 48v is asking a hell of a lot. Check out the specs on the Lemco website, youll find some usefull information on them there.

RippER, mate. RippER. :wink:

Anyways, heres my Superheavyweight to complete my line-up. Originally made for AI:PIE, please put your drumsticks together for Revolver!

NAME- Revolver (SHW)
SHAPE- box wi skirted sides and rear
COLOUR- painted like the infamous Yellow Submarine with portholes on the sides n that, with red hinged skirting and the cover for the album Revolver pasted on the top
WEIGHT- under 150kg, hopefully
DIMENSIONS- 110cm X 75cm X 28cm
SPEED- 18mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0m
GROUND CLEARANCE- 10mm all over without skirts, 0mm at sides n rear with em
ARMOUR- 6.75mm monocoque Hardox. Booyah.
MOVEMENT- 4 inner wheels and a little caster on top/bottom at the front for balance
POWER- 2 x C40-500 MagMotors, running at 36v (should give about 12hp, I think)
WEAPONS- The main weapon here is a large horizontal spinning disc at the front resembling an LP record. This is powered by an LEM-130 motor at 36v and runs at around 2500rpm. The flywheel bears two Hardox teeth (curved ala Pussycats), making it ideal for ripping into the other contestants. It could also charge at other competitors, get under them with the skirt and become a passive rammer should things start to get hairy.
SRIMECH- invertible
NOTES- flies the Scotland flag
STRENGTHS- powerful disc, fast, manoueverable, pushing power, invertible
WEAKNESSES- wheels exposed to overhead attacks, control could be an issue

Picture here: http://70.85.81.229/3670/198/upload/p745854.jpghttp://70.85.81.229/3670/198/upload/p745854.jpg

Heres hoping thats OK

Youve already entered Flipping Hell in the HRR, Dave, so it needs to be a different one - sorry. And Ill assume Timothy means Ripper, the flipping robot that lost to Firestorm in the heat final.
