Re: New FW database (new robots)

I like the TRIPOD one :twisted: but is the doom there's or ours?

Re: New FW database (new robots)

You bring the doom crashing down on them by attacking them with your TRIPOD

Just done some testing with Seraphim and found it works well without any steel armour/Counterbalance plate on the front this saves 2.3Kg!! and now makes the robot about 12 Kg weight.
I may put a bit back on so I can fit a longer sword, or an axe. What do you think it needs?

Who can stand against The Great Seraphim?
I was wondering if anyone was willing to try to push Seraphim in the pit, or flip it OOTA, there is a fiver for the first to do this, anyone brave enough to try!!

Re: New FW database (new robots)

May be subject to change - design is done, and a fair number of the parts have been acquired already though.

THE DESTROYING ANGEL:

Weight ~13.6kg
Length ~40cm
Width ~30cm
Height ~6cm
Weapon: ~4kg overhead horizontal spinning bar, powered by dual brushless outrunners through a spiral bevel gearbox. Torque limiter on the weapon shaft to remove some of the shock loading from the gears and motors.
Drive: Dual 550 motors through Banebots gearboxes.
ESC: Sabertooth
Radio: Spektrum dx5e
Batteries: 12x A123 cells (4 for drive, 8 for the weapon)
Armour: 3mm 6-4 Ti top and bottom, 10mm UHMWPE sides with hardox front wedge and 3.2mm hardox side plates. If I end up having the weight, I'll put a couple of mm of Ti on the rear.

Should be running in time for the tag champs
