By the way Martijn, Nitro-Gene 4.0 isnt spelt with capitals.

By the way, can I ask if Nitro-Gene 4.0 is actually inside the weight limit and not OVERweight?

Think of it as him getting revenge on you for not calling Another Night at the Bar by its correct name in Eye of the Robot 4, after he repeatedly told you not to call it A Night at the Bar 2. :wink:

This is a flippers paradise, so why will anyone enter anything other than a flipper?

So please welcome my entry, the robot wish uses the moon as a crash-site for his opponents...

NITRO-GENE 4.0

€ WEIGHT: 100kg

€ ARMOUR: 6mm Hardox for the body. 7mm Hardox flipper.

€ SHAPE: Low invertible box with pointed sides and rear. At the front is a Storm 2 style wedge to aid in getting underneath other robots.

€ MOTORS: 4 x LEM 130€™s at 36V = 36HP

€ LOCOMOTION: 4 Vulkanised Wheels.

€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 80CM (H) 15CM (W) 60CM

€ COLOUR: Black all over with the flipper coloured red.

€ WEAPONRY: A full pressure Nitrogen powered flipper at 1000psi, using a single 80mm ram at 1000psi. The flipper is mounted in the middle of the robot, and is 20cm wide and runs 30cm up the body. Using a 3cm long Titanium strip underneath the flipper, and a heavy flipping arm, the flipper runs completely along the ground. Running on a ratio 2.8:1, the flipper produces 1800kg of force at the tips, allowing me to launch anyone away! This version has 3 x 3kg Nitrogen bottles, giving me 30 flips!

€ SPEED: 22mph

€ GROUND CLEARANCE: 0MM-2CM. At the front, it is completely 0mm. On the sides/rear, its 2cm. The orginal weakness of Nitro-Gene (its high ground clearance) has been seen to by the skirts on the sides/rear. They are 4mm Hardox skirts and are joined together like BioHazard - at the corners. To avoid them breaking off, they are held in place by Hardox hinges.

€ STRENGTH: Pushing power and weaponry.

€ WEAKNESS: High speed may mean difficult driving

Well, this is what you entered Paul, all clues pointed into the direction that Nitro-Gene 4.0 is spelled with caps, Ill sort it out when I do the draw though

I dont want any side-effects like axes/skirts stuck in arena-floors, so everything is Hardox Aaron

Attraction it is then. Magnetic goodness, now who can work out which vapourbot Ive revived with this one

[pcbore]

From the name alone, Im guessing Electro. Sheesh, why not call it Magneto?
