Right. Throwing this out here now, some very rough stats here:

----

Troubloon 6 (previously Aftershock)

Shape: Box wedge with inverted wedge at rear.

Weight: 100kg

Armour: 7.5mm Titanium Vanadium alloy with a 4mm polycarbonate laminate. The side skirts are made of 5mm Grade 5 titanium.

Drive: 2 D-Pack motors @ 24v

Power: 8 A123 Li-Ion packs, should get in the realm of 24v

Motivation: 2WD, the usual urethane rubber-pressed titanium wheels.

Ground Clearance: 0mm at front wedge under the front disc, the discs clearance is 10mm. The sides have 15mm ground clearance without skirts but 0 mm when skirted. The rear is 25mm.

Rough dimensions in CM = 85 x 65 x 15

Weaponry: Two horizontal 15kg titanium spinning discs run by a separate D-Pack motor each @ 24v. They spin at 2000rpm and dish out around 55kJ each. Will calculate properly later. The thing is that the front disc is as close to the ground as possible while the rear one is as high up as can be so when Troubloon is flipped, the rear one gets close to the ground.

Srimech: Invertible.

----

ROUGH WEIGHT CHECK
Armour/Chassis = ~25kg
Motors = 7.8kg (I think, I seem to recall the motor weigh 3.9kg each)
Batteries = 5.6kg
Wheels, gears, and other drivetrain stuff = ~6.6kg
Weaponry and power = ~45kg
Rest = ~10kg

Pointers and constructive criticism are appreciated. Destructive criticism will earn you a Hardox mace to the head. :P
