Guys,I will start the tourney next week, so send me your entries AFAP! (as fast as possible)

[samuel3764]

The arena is similar to the robot wars arena, except the pit is in the middle. The pit release button is the same position as it was in Robot Wars. There are no house robots, instead, in two corners are 50kg sledgehammers that come down with a force of 1 ton! There are 8000RPM killsaws in the remaining two corners as well.

[joey_picus]

Are the killsaws the come-out-of-the-floor-and-throw-you variety or the arena-angle-grinder variety?

And heres the stats for No Objections, taking a couple of changes into account:

No Objections
WEIGHT: 100kgs
DIMENSIONS: 140 x 140 x 15 cm
SHAPE: A low dome type shape
COLOUR: Yellow, with a yellow and black striped lifter with red forks, and stylised black arrowheads on each side. The spinner rim is metal-coloured.
DRIVE: 2 S28-400 Magmotors driving 2 wheels, with a fairly narrow wheelbase to increase rotation speed, running at 24v from 4 NiCd packs.
SPEED: About 12mph average when driving normally, can get up to 40mph when spinning
GROUND CLEARANCE: 7mm all around, except at the front where the forks make it 0. 1mm in places because of the blades.
ARMOUR: 3mm titanium/vanadium alloy on top of 5mm UHMW on the top of the robot, supported by a 4mm Hardox frame underneath with holes drilled to reduce weight. 3mm aluminium baseplate.
WEAPONS: Complicated this...it has an electric lifting arm running off a 1 tonne linear actuator, pivoting from the rear of the robot with two front forks to get underneath opponents. The arm can lift 250kgs easily and extends fully (almost vertical) in about 1.5 seconds. Also, the robot has the capability to be a full body spinner (a spin-in-place one as opposed to a Ziggo or Gyrobot) with an outer 1.2cm Hardox ring with two blades/teeth, one on each side, made of hardened tool steel set close to the floor (1-2mm) and capable of delivering (energy)
SRIMECH: The lifter
NOTES: Internal components shockproofed to protect it from its own and other peoples spinner hits.
STRENGTHS: Versatile, can cause some damage, manoeuvrable
WEAKNESSES: Large area to attack, top armour not as strong as it could be, cannot translate while spinning

come-out-of-the-floor-and-throw-you variety

Steve, when are you going to post up your robots?

He will when he wants to. Remember, some people may be busy with other stuff. Just be patient.
