And my first ever Superheavyweight: Tetris!!!
Tetris (IS A 2-PART CLUSTERBOT!!!)
Weight: 200kg combined, 100kg for each part.
Shape: (Each Part) Tornado (S7) with a scoop at the front.
Colour: One is pink, the other is green. The pink one has PART 1 written on it in black, while the green one has PART 2 written on it in white.
Dimensions: (Each Part) 90cm x 60cm x 20cm
Drive: (Each Part) 4 24v S28-400 Magmotors, powered by 6x NiCad Battlepacks.
Locomotion: (Each Part) 4 small Biohazard style rubber wheels.
Armour: (Each Part) 3.25mm hardox
Speed: (Each Part) 20mph
Ground Clearance: (Each Part) 0mm at front due to solid Hardox scoop, 5mm at ides and back.
Turning Circle: (Each Part) 0m
Weapons: (Each Part) a 20kg horizontal spinning disc in the scoop, powered by an LEM170 at 36v. The disc spins at 2000rpm, and is equipped with 8 0.5kg hardox teeth. The idea is, both robots will charge in at an opponent, and their discs will hit in a relatively straight line, which means that the middle of one bot's disc is lined up with the middle of the other one's disc. Newton's law states that for every force there is an equal and opposite reaction. The clusters' discs' inertial energy should collide in the center of the target, producing a powerful and violent physical reaction since they counteract eachother, thereby causing severe physical and shock damage to robots even if they have massive amounts of shockproofing.
Srimech: Both parts are invertible.
Strengths: Clusterbot, should be able to tear opponents twice as big up due to Newton's Law.
Weaknesses: A good flip and they should end up in Canada.![]()
Bio: I've had this idea for some time now. If 2 discs hit a target in a near straight line, the resulting counteraction of forces should be enough to cause an inertial failure in the opposing target, causing massive physical and shock damage. Now I've finally built the robot to test my theory. Even if it doesn't work, it should still do quite a bit of physical damage.
