Robot Name: Return of Rex
Shape: From above it looks like a triangle with the point replaced by a flat side. That top side is the front
Weight: 100kg
Length: 85cm
Width: 85cm at rear right down to about 7cm at the front
Height: 14cm
Motivation: 2 x internal swivel casters at the rear, 2 x unrethane rubber tyres on HDPE wheels mounted internally towards the front of the robot
Drive: 2 x S28-400 magmotors @ 36v
Batteries: 4 x NiCad battlepacks @ 36v
Armour: 7mm grade 2 titanium for the most part with 4mm hardox in key areas. The base is 12mm Lexan and Lexiguard compound with 2mm grade 5 titanium added protection in key areas
Weaponry: Hinged at the very back of the robot is a Toro-style flipping arm drilled with large holes at the front to reduce weight. It is made of 6mm hardox and powered by a single 100m non-attached ram at 1000psi from a 2.5kg nitrogen bottle, which should suffice for about 15-20 flips per bout
Speed: 15mph
Turning Circle: 0
Ground Clearance: 0 at front, 7mm at sides and rear
Srimech: The flipping arm can turn it 540 degrees in the air, plus the sides and rear are wedged at 42* to stop it getting beached
Colour: Super shiny, like Trident with mischievious cartoony eyes on either side of the flipper plate
