4x LEM130s on 48v
16mm Titanium
An axe and a flipper

I think someone is dreaming...

I bet not even our local techies can find a way to cram all that into a SHW, let alone a HW.

Maybe....the flipper and axe are antweight proportions - the tianium is a single bar and there isnt much of anythign else....

First time I have heard the use of grade 3 titanium. I thought it only came in grade 2 or grade 5, whatever the difference is.

There are plenty of Titanium grades, just various grades have different properties, which may or may not be suited to the sport of Robot Combat.

A drive consisting of 4 LEM130 motors would weigh at least 35kg including batteries, gearing, motors and mounts... A FP CO2 flipper setup would be at least 20kg.... I dont like your chances Tim.
