Name: Rupture
Shape: A low box wedge shape, the front wedge is sloped at 45 degrees.
Length: 700mm
Width: 700mm
Height: 200mm
Weight: 100kgs
Drive: 2x S28-400 Magmotors, run at 33v by 10x A123 battery packs.
Speed: 15mph to provide decent acceleration and running speed.
Ground Clearance: 0mm at the front wedge, 10mm at the side and back. 0mm all round when the skirts are fixed.
Skirting: Side and rear skirts that provide 0mm of ground clearance all around Rupture. They are 5mm Ti/V alloy and are hinged to the robot via a rotary joint.
Armour: 4mm thick Hardox monocoque.
Weapon: A lifting arm, around 600mm in width, which is hinged at the rear and runs down the front wedge ending in a flat platform running flush to the ground. It is operated by an S28-400 motor run at 24v and geared at 300:1. The idea is to not produce devastating flips, but something that can keep rolling the opponent over and over. It can lift up to full height in under a second and is designed to last the length of a fight, which is an advantage for fighting flippers.
Self-righting mechanism: The lifting arm can easily right the robot.
Notes: Designed to just keep going on and on and on€¦
