Nurse Pain
Weight: 150kg
Shape: Son of Whyachi (Battlebots 3.0)
Colour: The chassis is green, the weapon is black, and the bracing rods are blue.
Dimensions: 110cm x 80cm x 30cm
Drive: 2 C40-300 Magmotors at 36.3 volts, geared 4.5:1, powered by 11 M1 A123 Li-Ion cells.
Locomotion: 2 Drillzilla-style shuffling feet.
Armour: 10mm hardox for the tribar, and 3mm titanium for the main body.
Speed: 12mph
Ground Clearance: 1mm all around due to the hammers almost touching the ground. 5mm under the body of the robot.
Turning Circle: Zero.
Weapons: The weapon is a deadly 21kg Son of Whyachi-style tribar powered by 2 36.3v LEM-130 motors at 4000rpm. Each end of the tribar has a 3kg Hardox hammerhead attached to it. It can put out 277.5kj. It also has bracing rods that are part of the tribar, and therefore give the tribar the full 21kg of weight.
Srimech: None
Strength: Absolutely deadly. Can kill almost anything.
Weakness: No srimech, but that won't matter.
Bio: Nurse Pain replaces Dr. Thwack in the field of activity, but might not see service until either a new tournament starts or it'll have to wait until the new ARC season.

One problem, Too heavy, no weight bonuses here.

Name - Back to Rock III

Shape - See picture, it€™s a box with a scoop at the front and a rounded back. The front is higher than the back and has an €œarc€ like Behemoth had, all for more efficient self-righting.

Weight - 100 Kilogram

Speed - 18mph

Dimensions - 90x84x33 cm

Ground Clearance - 0 underneath the lifter and skirts, 5 mm everywhere else.

Power - 2x LEM130s at 48v

Movement - 6 wheels, about 12 cm diameter

Turning Circel - Zero

Weaponry - A big rear-hinged lifting arm, basically the red part of the picture. It is powered by a single LEM130 at 36 V, which a €œpinion and rack€-mechanism. A pinion around the LEM€™s axle moves up a rack that€™s joint to the lifter about halfway its length. The fancy part is that this runs through a gearbox, with 2 gears. One gear is for powerful and controlled lifting and moves up the arm in about 2-3 seconds, another gear is for quick self-righting and moves up the arm in 1 second.

The two plates at the bottom run almost parallel to the ground and are arranged in the way they are (split in the middle, see picture) for the secondary weapon to come into play, a Pussycat-style vertical diamond-edged sawblade, powered by a S28-150 Magmotor at 24 V spinning at 4000 rpm. The blade is part of the lifter and thereby damages the opponent€™s underbelly while lifting it. The sawblade slicing its way INTO (more or less) my opponent will enhance my grip on it and increase my control over my opponent, which is good.

On both sides of the bot is a 7 mm titanium skirt.

Armour - 5 mm titanium at the bottom, 7 mm titanium everywhere else

Srimech - The lifter self-rights the robot when needed

Strenghts - Nice weapon synergy, high traction, can really control an opponent
Weakness - Untested lifter concept, easy to get under from rear, not as agile as 4WD or 2WD bots

Power - 2x LEM130s at 48v [Can you change this field to Drive? Power kinda puts it like your talking about batteries (Can you add some batteries too!). I would also be very wary of running the LEM130's on 48V without a form of current limiting on them.]
Movement - 6 wheels, about 12 cm diameter [Put this information under drive ]

One gear is for powerful and controlled lifting and moves up the arm in about 2-3 seconds, another gear is for quick self-righting and moves up the arm in 1 second. [The drive LEM130's run on 48V and this one runs on 36V, does it use a separate battery pack to the drives?]

[This comment is more of a recommendation, I reckon ditch the little blade, it's too small to do any real damage (featherweights have bigger weapons) and it uses up some valuable weight that you could use for more armor. Also, the magmotor runs on 24V? Another separate battery?]

Really want those battery stats, as it's a big decider on how this bot could perform and if it fits within the weight limit.

@Jack - Comments in Blue

name: I.A.N
power: 1x a123 36v pack [Bit more information, is this pack a single 10cells pack ie: 33V @ 2.3Amp or is there a few packs in parallel?]
drive: 2x mag motors [What type of magmotors? what voltage? what sized wheels?]
weapon: a forward hinged flipper consisting of the whole front pallel, can oota with ease, and can get about 30-40 flips running on 750psi with one 2kg tank and a 750g buffer tank, there are two 110mm rams [Are these 110mm bore rams? 110mm stroke? Have you run this through the flipper calculator to get those amount of flips?]
locomotion: 2 solid steels wheels, with vulconized rubber tyres for maximum grip [Put this in the drive section]
ground clearance: 0mm at the 1mm at the sides and 3mm at the back [A bit more ground clearance would be sensible unless you want to get stuck on the first bit of debri on the floor]

Missing some important information in there, I can't really gauge how well this design will do without the information, and therefore can't write super awesome battles*!

Read the rules please

hi

ye its 1 10cell pack

they are mags s20-400's, on 36v, with 150mm wheels

its 110 bore, and yes i know it does those amount flips because a: i have run it thru the calculator and b: its the same setp i use in my heavyweight

okay then , the new ground clearacnce is 0mm at the front, 3mm at the sides and 5mm at the back

that all?

Intriguality

Shape: Box. Yep, a plain ol' boring box.

Colour: The main body is black...most of everything else is pretty much light green.

Weight: ~100kg

Drive: LEM130 Lynch motors run @ 36.3v, geared 9:1 for better control.

Power: 5 packs of 11 M1 A123 Lithium-Ion cells run in parallel.

Motivation: 4WD; features go-kart tires soaked in polyurethane, and custom-made CNC aluminium hubs.

Speed: 12mph

Armour: 6mm Ti/V framework surrounding a 3.2mm Hardox 400 monocoque. The front wedge plates (top and bottom) are 6mm Ti/V, while the sides of them are 4mm Ti/V. The axe shaft is bored through to lighten the load, and is made of Grade 5 titanium, while the axe head is sharpened Hardox. Hinges, inner bulkheads and bearings are 10mm aluminium.

Ground Clearance: 0mm under the wedges, 15mm under the sides and rear, even inverted.

Turning Circle: 0

Dimensions in CM (LxWxH): 151.5 x 83 x 23 (length is 103cm without wedges)

Weaponry: Pneumatic axe mechanism powered by a 150mm stroke 100mm bore double-acting ram, 2kg CO₂ tank, and 4L buffer tank. Shots are fired at 900psi and it can fire about 20 times per fight, weakening at about 14 shots (only an estimate though)

Srimech: Axe. Because the ram is double-acting, it can right Intriguality if the shaft is fired before being flipped.

I spent a while on the stats, so if you've got a beef with the stats, do spill please, I want them to be as good as they can be made.

hi

ye its 1 10cell pack [You'll need more then that, my featherweight MBX flattens a single 10cell pack in just over 3 minutes. I'd suggest 4 x 10 cell packs minimum]

they are mags s20-400's, on 36v, with 150mm wheels

its 110 bore, and yes i know it does those amount flips because a: i have run it thru the calculator and b: its the same setp i use in my heavyweight [What stroke is the ram and is it a full pressure system?]

okay then , the new ground clearacnce is 0mm at the front, 3mm at the sides and 5mm at the back

that all?

Urgh, should have mentioned in the stats that it's invertible. *facepalm* There go the 'perfect stats'. :P
