if not... please tell me soon :P

[alex_holt]

Name: Trojan
Colour: Natural colour of the materials - so realisitcally grey/metallic
Shape: Cylindrical (like tengu, but with a greater upper taper)
Weight: 100kg
Power: 3 x C40-500 MagMotors at 36v
Wheels: about 20cm diamter and 4cm wide, cast aluminium with a rubber tread with small studs extruding 1mm from that for traction
Weapons: A true full body spinner - ie. spins on its wheels to get the full mass behind it, however, the blades are somewhat unusual - they are shaped so that in one direction it forms a wedge that skims just above the floor and curls upwards which should hopefully get beneath a robot and turn it over. On the back of these are blunt stainless steel blocks for a more traditional usage of its full body spinner power. Essentially if it spins oen way it is a flipper, the other it is a damaging FBS. The twisting motion of the wedges and their rigidity should help it get beneath even very low robots.
Turning Circle: 0m
Armour: 6mm kelvar over 3mm titanium.
Strengths: Tough and various means of attack.
Weaknesses: Has to be able to spin to do much.
Srimech: A longer version of the hynodisc srimech inset into the top perpendicular to the blades. Essentially a trimmed down tengu srimech.

I have no idea if that will even work - I can do a render if wanted.

Martijn, just one thing, Ill need to tone the flipper down from 1000psi to 750psi under the rules - if thats ok.

Dave, is http://farr.proboards21.comhttp://farr.proboards21.com what you are looking for?

Alex, am I right in thinking this moves around while spinning as a translational spinner? Otherwise thats great.

Just Aaron and Daves robots needed and we can get this thing on the road.

[alex_holt]

Yep - a translational spinner.

Oh well anyways AJ whats happening with FRW.

[andrewj]

Regarding FRW, until a couple of days ago I forgot I was back in charge of it. Maybe Ill do another try at it in the future. But for now, Im sticking with this format of battling.

Just need a few more days to work out the parts and finish the render :P Also need a name for it....

[alex_holt]

Call it.... errr.... Aaronbot..... or, errmmm.... Mad Explosion! or..... Fission or...... some kind of Australian themed name....

I suck at naming other peoples robots (and arguably my own) but as I dont even know what its like I cant really go with a theme.
