OK it can lift 200kgs and it can toss 120kgs and I meant CMs not MMS.

Someone correct me if Im wrong, but I dont think canisters affect flipping power, just how many flips you have.

[dogbot4000]

OK I have about 50 flips and can I have Typhoon 2 and Drillzilla instead of the 2 already taken please.

Timmy if you ment cm insted of MM then your robot is 1.8mMETERS X 80cm X 2.1METERS. Which anyone can correct me if i am wrong seams a little bit huge for a robot

[leorcc]

And Chaos 2 and Gravity have 2 totaly different flipper systems.

[leorcc]

Oh and Kody, you do need batteries for a flipper. The valves dont work otherwise.

[kodster]

Okay, people, just ignore Tim. Well continue like nothing happened.

N33D B0T5 PLZ. THX.

For the sake of you writing a battle with a vapourbot powered by darkfusion batteries, my entries will be in some time over the weekend. Is there any chance someone can provide a list of real robots entered so far please? Im too lazy.

3x 36v batteries arent needed for a flipper mechanism IMO, but correct me if Im wrong. Darkfusion batteries? Again correct me if Im wrong but Im pretty sure they dont exist. Just reference SLA/NiCad/NiMH and get it over with. For the rest see what everyone else said. And stop randomly guessing values for your system - if you havent calculated the true force of the system then dont state it! The flipper has gone from flipping 100kgs to 120kgs to 200kgs with very little change from what I can see.

At least hes trying this time...

[dogbot4000]

No it can lift 200kgs and it can toss 120kgs and the batteries are NiCad batteries then and the flippers front hinged is what I meant. Its now 80cmX80cmX1.2m. Is that alright.
