Eye Of The Robot - Series 5 Re-Opened

[dinowarrior]

I see you didnt read the rules, Daniel. Since when does 4 come after 5?

[team_britespark]

Miaow.

Ill have Revolution 3 (Series 7 of Robot Wars) instead, please.

[martyn]

if there is any places left save one for me

[paulc]

Nice to see you back Martyn. Its been a while since you competed, but nice to know youre still here.

Right - 2 things:

Firstly, Rurak, you need 1 more realie/vapour to complete your line-up. Ive given you Bigger Brother so you dont need to worry about getting 2 more.

Secondly, Chris and AJ reserved spaces, but Liam and Martyn have taken those spots, because if you reserve a place, it means its secure...until someone else puts their bots forward for battle. So now Chris and AJ dont have spots reserved, but Martyn does. If anyone else, or Martyn give ALL of their bots, they will have that space.

Heres the current entry list:

[joey_picus]

Paul, since when was that best practice for running tournaments?

[martyn]

Name: Disco 5
Shape: Low Wedge with small rear wedge
Motivation: it now uses four storm 2 style Vulcalon wheels
Speed: 12.5 Mph
Weight: 100kg
Height: 300mm to top of body, 600mm to the top of the disc
Length: 1300mm
Width: 600mm
Weapon: 500mm Vert. flywheel @ 3000rpm. Has a 4.00 second spin up time due to the C40-500 Magmotor on 36v with a 2:1 twin tension cog belt reduction. The flywheel produces 31.5Kj€™s at maximum RPM but is lethal at around 1 second. The second weapon is also the srimech, this weapon is a low pressure pneumatic flipper running on 10Bar (145psi) running into a single 80mm bore ram. This produces 509kg at the ram and is then transferred into the flipper with a leverage point ratio of 1:1. This is a forward facing flipper like FireStorm and will have no problem toppling the heaviest of robots.
Chassis: 4mm Grade 5 Titanium monocoque with extra 5mm Titanium ribs to give it more rigidity.
Drive: 2 x S28-400 Magmotors @ 36v with a 10:1 Mod 2 spur gear reduction
Batteries: 90 x 3000mAh NiCD cells producing 36v @ 9amp
Color- the robot and skirts and flipper are blue and the disc is yellow
Clearance- it has 0mm at the front due to the wedge it has 0mm at the sides due to skirts its 6mm with out it also has a 0mm at the rear due to the small wedge which is there to replace the problem of the skirt being flipped into the disc. The skirts are NOT hinged and held down by torsion-springs so they shouldn€™t spring up and the rear one shouldn€™t go up into the disc
Notes- The flywheel is at the back off the robot it goes over the back of the wedge so if I can get a robot up the wedge far enough it will be hit by the disc. The shape of the robot stops it from landing on its side.
Achievements- as disco, 3rd seed in ajwars and undethed challenge belt holder in ajwars extreme 1-4 ajwars 3 8th seed, as disco 4, semi finalist of the lord of the ring tourney, WINNER OF THE LORD OF THE RING TOURNEY

NAME- The deer (was crusher chaos)
SHAPE- Invertible box
COLOR- the robot and claws are a dark green color
WEIGHT- 100kg
DIMENSIONS- 1m x 80cm x 25cm (l,w,h)
SPEED- 15mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0mm
GROUND CLEARANCE- It has 6mm at the front due to the claws and has 0mm at the sides and rear due to the skirts, without skirts 6mm. The skirts also work both ways up.
ARMOUR- 3.6mm hardox
MOVEMENT- 4 inner wheels that make the robot invertible
POWER- 2 x S28 Magmotors on 24v.
WEAPONS- it has a front pair of horizontal hydraulic crushing claws set up like deers antlers (shaped like those you find in extreme destruction.) The claws have 3.5 tones of crushing force on the front tips of the claws at the middle is 6tones and right at the back it has 8 tones of crush. The claws are powered by hydraulics through a 120mm bore rams at 3000psi
NOTES- invertible, wide base means the deer wont topple while crushing
STRENGTHS- Very powerful weapon
WEAKNESSES- it could be turned into venison

NAME- *69
SHAPE- It€™s a shaped like a five point star but the points are mounted round a inner circle so the points of the star spin round
COLOR- yellow
WEIGHT- 100kg
SPEED- 19mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0mm
GROUND CLEARANCE- about 10mm but is lower under the bottom teeth where it is about 3-4mm
ARMOUR- 4mm hardox
MOVEMENT- it uses 6 inner storm 2 style wheels
DRIVE- it uses 2 x lem 130€™s
BATTERIES- 4 x 30 cell 36volt 3ah Sanyo NiCad packs
WEAPONS- as I said it has an outer spinning ring so is a fbs the ring is powered by a LEM 200 motor at 60volts, the points on the star each have sharpened teeth on them and it spins in a clockwise direction, each point has 3 teeth on it, one on the bottom for tearing at skirts in wheels, one in the middle for body work and that, and one at the top for aerials and tall robots and also used for bottom teeth when flipped
SRIMECH- Invertible, points and blades stop it from sticking on side
NOTES- Still the only star shaped robot, the weapon is significantly more powerful than before.
STRENGTHS- Powerful weapon and drive
WEAKNESSES- nights with no stars

NAME- Rammy Mk 3
SHAPE- Invertible box with front hinged wedge
COLOUR- Blue
WEIGHT- 94kg
SPEED- 20mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0mm

ARMOUR- 4mm Hardox
MOVEMENT- it has 6 inner vulcalon wheels
POWER- it uses 2 x lem 130€™s
WEAPONS- The front wedge can lift up and down powered by a linear actuator, this is only used if the opponent is winning to help get aggression points from the judges. The wedge is hinged so works both ways up however the lifter isn€™t as affective when the robot is flipped though it still works
SRIMECH- Invertible
NOTES- Rammy finally comes to the fra after entering frw 8 and some arc tourneys
STRENGTHS- Compact in size, great pushing power
WEAKNESSES- Comparatively Light

Name- Take me out

COLOUR- Dark grey
WEIGHT- 100kg
DIMENSIONS- Height: 20cm, Length: 80cm, Width: 65cm
SPEED- around 18mph

DRIVE- 2 LEM 130€™S on 36 volts
BATTERIES- custom 3300mAh NiCad Cell 36v BotPack
WEAPONS- The robot has a 1000psi nitrogen flipper on a 80mm bore on a 100-stroke ram which should make around 3.5 tones at the ram (if I am incorrect please correct me) the nitrogen is stored in 2, 2.2kg canisters, the robot has around 25 flips in a fight, the flipper is on high pressure
STRENGTHS- Powerful weapon, good drive
WEAKNESSES- limited supply for the weapon

Name-Panicking Still?
SHAPE- Low invertible box
COLOUR- Yellow except for the lifting forks which are black
WEIGHT- 98kg
DIMENSIONS- 65cm x 60cm x 15cm (Length x Width x Height)
SPEED- 20mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0 mm
GROUND CLEARANCE- 0 mm at front due to forks, 0 mm at sides and rear due to skirts 6 mm with out, the skirts are hinged so flop over when the robot is flipped. These can be removed before the fight if I wish them to be.
ARMOUR- 5 mm Hardox
MOVEMENT- 6 Vulcalon wheels to give extra pushing power
POWER- 4x S28-400 @ 24volts
WEAPONS- on the front the robot has a pair of invertible lifting forks, the forks are like those on panic attack, the forks are powered by 2 linear actuators
SRIMECH- The robot is invertiable so doesn€™t require one. The robot can€™t rest on its sides, rear or front. Due to the skirts and that the sides are slightly angled. It can€™t rest on its front due to the forks.
STRENGTHS- Low to the ground, reliable weapon
WEAKNESSES- Kind of old design I suppose.


real robots later

[andrewj]

Paul, please look up the word €œreserve€€¦

You cannot €œtake€ a reserved place, that is common practice here, and you know that. As you said, reserving a place means it is secure, until I have finished my stats off to give to you. This is a very poor decision you have made.

You also still have not answered Martijn€™s question.

Another epic fail for EOTR.

[martyn]

:blush: i could withdraw and everything *spam*

[kodster]

How about this.

Paul.

If you dont answer Martijns question PROPERLY.

I WILL withdraw from the competition.

BECAUSE THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS.

[paulc]

OK - I HAVE already answered Martijns question as best I can, but I will answer it again to save any more harrasing:

I am focusing on this, as I plan to write this all the way through, and I plan on writing the All-Stars and Challenge Belt LATER ON.

And it was a poor decision, but I have Martijns entries now, so I just need Ruraks last entry and Martyns real robot, I can post-up the line-up.
