Hey. I've kinda come back after ages and have done a bit of updating. These are some updates of old robots that could've done better, and now hopefully may![]()
VOLCANO (Formerly 'Inferno')
€ WEIGHT: 100kg.
€ ARMOUR: 3mm Titanium on top, and 10mm Titanium on the base, with 6mm Weldox plating around the sides. It also has 1 Inch worth of PU Foam around the edge, 1cm of Vulkalon rubber around the as well, as well as strapping all the electrics down. All of the armour is curved over so no panels can be just be torn off.
€ SHAPE: Low cylinder shape.
€ MOTORS: 2 x S28-150 MagMotors at 24V = 6HP
€ LOCOMOTION: 4 x 60mm diameter Vulkalon treaded tyres.
€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 90CM (W) 90CM (H) 11CM
€ COLOUR: Black on top and bottom, with flames going around the outer rim. The disc is natural Hardox colour, with the name €˜VOLCANO€™ in fire colours.
€ WEAPONRY: A large horizontal disc mounted on top, made from 8mm thick Hardox, weighing 35kg in weight, with 2 large blunt non-attached teeth, as in the teeth are shaped from the disc, not needing to have teeth surgically attached. The teeth reached out 6cm, and are 5cm wide, 0.8cm deep, and are bent at the end to bend down to a height of 3cm from the ground, and therefore, it can strike low down. The disc is powered by 2 x S28-400 MagMotors at 36V, and get up to 2500rpm in the space of 2-2.5 seconds, and 50kj is the output achieved. In addition to the new model, a small 4mm thick Hardox bar will be welded across the disc, so now Volcano can self right by spinning its disc, something it€™s predicesor couldn€™t do.
€ SPEED: 12MPH
€ GROUND CLEARANCE: 4mm all the way around.
€ STRENGTH: Powerful weapon and strong armour.
€ WEAKNESS: May loose in a straight out pushing match.
SUPERSONIC (Formerly 'The Rock')
€ WEIGHT: 100kg
€ ARMOUR: 6mm Hardox on the rear, top and sides. 4mm Aluminium on the base and front. Inside, I have 4cm of Vulkanised rubber to make sure its good when facing spinners.
€ SHAPE: A low Beta-esque shape. 4 sided cut-off pyramid shape, with all sides sloped at 42* so to deflect spinners
€ MOTORS: 2 x S28-400 MagMotors at 36V = 12HP
€ LOCOMOTION: 4 Rubber Wheels that can be pressure adjusted to suit a situation i.e. greater acceleration will increase tyre pressure.
€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 80CM (H) 30CM (W) 80CM
€ COLOUR: White, except for the name on the front clearly in black, and the black-axe head.
€ WEAPONRY: A VERY powerful CO2 axe. The axe is 850mm long axe, completely made of Hardox, and the axe mechanism is mounted INSIDE the cut-off pyramid top of the robot to avoid it being ripped off by spinners as easily hopefully. The entire thing weights 5kg, with 3kg in the axe head - the axe head is Killerhurtz shaped to more effectively grapple an opponent as opposed to battering them. The axe runs on a rack-and-pinion system through a 250mm stroke, 100mm bore pneumatic cylinder at 190psi! This allows me to give 1000kg of force per hit! I have 30 hits, and I can cause some harm with a spiked axehead.
€ SPEED: 15mph
€ GROUND CLEARANCE: 5mm on every side, but they are covered up by Hardox spring-loaded skirts held on with Titanium hindges, so I can get underneath, and hammer away!!
€ STRENGTH: Good acceleration and powerful weapon.
€ WEAKNESS: Weak top/base armour.
AUTOISM 4.0
€ WEIGHT: 100kg
€ ARMOUR: This is a unique armour adaption for my robots. The actual armour for the body is 4mm Aluminium Boron Carbide (a material lighter than Titanium, but STRONGER than Tool Steel). It€™s a lightweight that allows for a 5mm Hardox exo-skeleton with triangles for extra-strength to quell blows from toothed spinners, as they hit the chassis before they hit the body.
€ SHAPE: Box shape with the front/rear shaped <>, but the sides are flat.
€ MOTORS: 2 x LEM130€™s at 36V = 18HP
€ LOCOMOTION: 4 x Wet Go-Kart wheels on top and bottom ala Big Nipper. The wheels are now 130mm in width each, giving better grip than before.
€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 60CM (W) 50CM (H) 15CM
€ COLOUR: Black for the armour, Silver for the exo-skeleton and crushing weapon. Now, on top, it has the name €˜AUTOISM 3.0€™ written in silver, vertically down the weapon.
€ WEAPONRY: The weapon is a Big Nipper style pair of horizontal crushers. The crushers are 1cm thick Titanium with several talon-like hooks built onto the claws, getting thinner towards the end so more force is applied. The weapon is a LEM130 at 48V powering a Vivoil pump with 2 x 100mm x 50mm rams at 3000psi, with a 2kg tank for storing the hydraulics, making 5000kg of force at the tips. The system can also be used to lift other robots up into the air, also with 5000kg of force at the tips. It can grab and lift and the same time.
€ SPEED: 15MPH
€ GROUND CLEARANCE: 0mm - 8mm. 4mm Titanium sprung skirts on the sides and rear make it a nightmare to get under.
€ STRENGTH: Power and Weapons make it a tough machine
€ WEAKNESS: Vulnerable to axe attacks, and also the thwackbots.
HEYGHT III
€ WEIGHT: 100kg.
€ ARMOUR: The armour is mounted on an ABC Chassis, with 3.25mm Hardox on flipper and 5mm Hardox for the rest, with a 6mm Titanium base plate. Inside, 2cm of Vulkanised Rubber is on the front, as well as 0.5cm PU foam on the sides and rear to protect it from shock-killing.
€ SHAPE: An invertible reversible wedge shape but with a box-type addition to the rear, like a mix between Envy and Maelstrom. All the sides are smoothed over as well to prevent side-stranding.
€ MOTORS: 2 x LEM130€™s at 36V = 18HP
€ LOCOMOTION: 4 Vulkanised Wheels, 60mm in width and 210mm in diameter.
€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 100CM (H) 20CM (Gets lower into the box part of the body) (W) 50CM
€ COLOUR: The body is black, with the name written in black on the silver flipper.
€ WEAPONRY: A C02 powered rear-hindged flipper made from 3.25mm Hardox, and powered a single non-attached (with the exception of bungees) 750psi 110mm pneumatic ram, coming from 2 x 1.5kg bottles, giving 30 flips overall. The ram is geared at 2.5:1, so the flipper produces 1400kg of force at the tips (can flip 100kg 7ft into the air. To help in getting under skirts, an extension is added to the front of the wedge. The flipper can self-right Heyght 3 in a 180* flip, but throws itself 0.5ft backwards and 2.5ft upwards.
€ SPEED: 20mph
€ GROUND CLEARANCE: 8mm all around, except for 0mm at the front, but it also has 6mm Titanium skirts held in place by 4mm Hardox hindges.
€ STRENGTH: Good armour and an awesome weapon.
€ WEAKNESS: Weak chassis and may be vulnerable to axes.
Could ppl suggest me improvements + stuff. They would be greatly apprechiated![]()
