I see. Well then, if it isnt too much trouble, Id like to replace Mega Masher 2 with Axe-O-Lotl.

AXE-O-LOTL

Weight: 100 kilos
Body Shape: Comengetorix
Speed: 20mph
TC: 0
GC: 2mm
Wheels: 4 inner
Armour: Mainly aluminium (5mm) with 3mm Titanium top plates.
Power: Same stuff as Storm 2 and Cyclone Force uses.
Colour: Has interchangable panels. One set is pure black, the other pure white with pink tinges.
Weapons: A very nasty axe, with the power of Dominator 2. The head is diamond tipped, and the whole weapon is VERY persistant. It can fire about 50 times in one fight.
Srimech: The axe rights the robot. The robots body is designed so it cant be side stranded.
Inspiration: My favourite amphibian, the axolotl.
Notes: The interchangable armour plating is purely cosmetic.
Strengths: Powerful weaponary
Weaknessess: Questionable armour.

Soz if this causes a problem, but I dont want you to have to change the seedings too much.

The Crash & Burn Tournament 2

Okay... Change of plans...

Name: Infusion
Motivation: 4 x 125mm wheels
Speed: 0-12MPH [25MPH under Kinetic Boost]
Clearance: 7.5mm (same inverted) 0mm at the front, the wedge scraps the floor.
Weight: 100kg
Height: 125mm
Length: 800mm
Width: 600mm
Weapon: The weapon is a 28kg Hardox spinning ring (Ala MDU) powered by a LEM170 @ 36v. The rim rotates at 2000rpm and should spin up within 2 seconds max. The weapon is also a storage device for the drive. The spinning rim is connected to each side of the drive via a car air conditioner clutch, when the clutches are engaged, the 31kg kinetic storage bank(the spinning rim) transfers its energy into the drive train, giving it approximately double torque and speed for 2-3 seconds until the rim starts too loose speed and energy. This extra €˜kinetic€™ boost is used to ram into opponents with the front 10mm thick Hardox 500 wedge (similar to the one on Warrior SKF but wider and less depth to it). The front wedge is rubber shock mounted to ensure it survives the biggest of hits.
Drive: 2 x C40-500 Magmotors on 36v geared 7.5:1. The drive is also assisted via the spinning rim as explain above.
Batteries: 120 x 3600mAh NiCad Cells made into 36v packs. Produces 36v @ 14.4Amp/Hours
Armour: Front wedge is made entirely out of 8mm Hardox 500, the top and bottom of the robot is made out of 8mm Titanium/Vandium, The ring is made out of 10mm Hardox 400 with inner bracing to the perimeter bearing. Inner bulk heads are made from 20mm polycarbonate and 10mm aluminium.
Notes: Invertible, speed when needed and generally well controlled for a spinner. Ram or Spin, Infusion aims to win!

Rogue

Motivation: Wheeled
Speed: 18.84KMH (11.775MPH)
Weight: 91.39kg
Height: 248mm
Length: 523mm
Width: 1040mm
Ground Clearance: 10mm under disc teeth and increases to 20mm at the back.
Weapon: The weapon is a 24.61 kg, 580mm (From tooth tip to tooth tip) diameter flywheel mounted on a 20 degree angle. The flywheel is powered by a 6.8kg 125cc 5.3Kw (7.06HP) Husqvana chainsaw with modified Astroflight electric starter motor. The chainsaw has a peak RPM off 8500rpm and is geared 3.4:1 with a kevlar innerbound belt drive to produce a flywheel speed of 2500rpm. The chainsaw has a centrifugal clutch that prevents the flywheel from spinning at idle and prevents the chainsaw from stalling by cutting out at 500-600rpm. The weapon has a tip speed of 273.14Km/h while producing around 32Kjs of Kinetic Energy. The teeth are based on a shark tooth design where a inner concave to cut though metal much quicker and easier. The teeth are CNC machine blocks of Hardox 650 Wareplating to maintain a near perfect cutting edge.
Drive: The drive is a pair of S28-400 Magmotors coupled to a pair of 8:1 aluminium planetary gearbox which gives a final output speed of 500rpm at the drive shaft. The wheels are 200mm (8inch) Colson wheels with 3.25 mm Hardox 450 protection plates and 8mm thick Grade 5 Titanium/Vandium domes with tip spikes. The wheels are mounted on 40mm hollow, 5mm wall Stainless Steel shafts for maximum strength.
Batteries: 2 x 24v 3600mAh NiCD Battlepacks producing 24v @ 7200mAh supply (Enough for 10mins of solid driving, 8 mins of driving with several motor starts)
Monocoque (Chassis/Armour): The monocoque (chassis & armour combined) is a fully tig welded 8mm thick Grade 5 Titanium/Vandium with support braces and inner bulk heads for maximum strength and rigidness.
Electronics: Runs a RoboWars.org BMC speed controller with Hitec Focus SS-3 75mhz PCM 3ch Radio and a 3-axis computer Gyro for maxium control and handling. Uses 150amp rated Anderson power pole connectors and locking pins. Electronics are shock mounted and mounting in a floating style encased in HD (High Density) foam.
Notes: Can selfright via off balance weight distribution whe upside down and is added by the contact of the flywheel on the floor.

Weight Distribution:

Disc = 24.61kg
Wheels = 4.21kg
Chainsaw = 6.8kg
Chainsaw starter motor = 1.6kg
Gearboxes = 5.6kg
Batteries = 2.46kg
Monocoque body = 24.81kg
Weapon mounting and weapon drive components = 4.1kg
Electronics = 1.2kg
Drive motors = 6kg
NutsnBolts + Other pieces = 10kg

Total = 91.39kg

Name: Mass Disctruction Revolution (MDR)
Motivation: Wheels
Speed: 12MPH
Ground Clearance: 10mm
Weight: 100kg
Height: 140mm
Length: 700mm
Width: 700mm
Weapon: MDR sports a nifty 32kg Hardox 500 Spinning Rim. The spinning rim is powered by a custom built 200mm diameter, 15HP High Torque sensored brushless motor on 57.6v and is geared 4:1, rotating the spinning shell at 4000rpm and should spin up in around 2 seconds to max speed.
Drive: 4 x custom built 2HP hub motors (Basically a brushless motor built inside the wheels with direct drive). Wheels are coated in urethane rubber to get more traction. The combined drive has 8HP peak power.
Batteries: 80 x 2300 A123 Lithium Nano-Phosphate Batteries producing 57.6v @ 11.5Ah
Armor: 3.2mm Hardox 450
Notes: Invertible and easily to drive.

Name: Knightrous Wedge
Motivation: 6WD
Shape: A wedge shape like SJ (http://www.buildersdb.com/botpics/845.JPGhttp://www.buildersdb.com/botpics/845.JPG)
Speed: 40MPH
Weight: 100kg
Height: 320mm
Length: 750mm
Width: 650mm
Weapon: A speedy hydraulic front hinged lifter/flipper (0.25 second to do the full 120 degree movement) which is powered by a hydraulic motor geared 12:1 onto a crank shaft that lever on the lifting arm. (Diagram can be provided for Writer). The front wedge is made out of 10mm Hardox 500 and scraps the ground at 0mm.
Chassis/Armour: 5mm Hardox 600 sides, 8mm Titanium base and top. 3.25mm Hardox 450 floating skirts on the sides and back.
Drive: The drive is a hydra-static drive train. It has a 42HP Honda CR125 motor bike motor (2005 model) with a custom made swash plate hydra-static pump bolted to the motor output shaft. The hydra-static drive provides full motor torque at 0MPH right up to 40MPH (Electric motors and normal hydraulic drives cannot provide this feat, if you google hydra-static, you€™ll find out why). 6 x 120mm wheels that are 100mm wide provide the maximum traction when coated in 15mm of Urathane Rubber (Volcalon).
Notes: The robot is invertible. Gyro-stabalised and has an active traction control system build from a pair of 18X picaxe chips and some custom software and sensors. This will help maintain maximum control and handling at high speeds. Can self right with lifter and has 0mm ground clearance at the skirts and 15mm under the body. The robot also has rate limiting on the radio, so top speed can be set prior to the battle, to suit the opponent(s)

Name: Fragmentor
Motivation: 2WD
Speed: 15MPH
Weight: 100kg
Height: 200mm
Length: 650mm
Width: 750mm
Weapon: 15kg Flywheel powered by a Honda CR125 Motorbike motor. The CR125 motor produces 42.3BHP @ 11500rpm, it also has a HTI 220w 12v geared starter motor attached. The flywheel spins at 4500rpm producing 80Kj€™s of kinetic energy, plenty to dint and tear small pieces out of Hardox, rip holes in titanium and carve aluminium like paper. Spins up to full speed in under 3 secs, plenty of time to spin up between attacks.
Drive: 2 x Lemco 130 motors under volted at 24v to produce a zippy and moderately torque filled drive.
Batteries: 24v @ 6amp NiCD Packs
Armour: 4mm Hardox 400 on the sides/front/back, 8mm Titanium on the top and bottom and 15mm Polycarb internal bulk heads
Notes: Extra heavy mega duty shock proofing against it€™s own weapon. Uses a Gyro to stabilise the drive. Invertible.

Advantages: Fast drive, powerful weapon, moderate armour and well controlled

Disadvantages: Not a mega pushy bot, spins like Warhead when it hits an opponent.

And finally

Megabyte & Warrior SKF... You should know the power of these beasts by now...


Thats my crew, a bundle of, old, new and upgraded. There is one more entry to come, but Im swtill designing the last details of it... Might even CAD this one up since its special

[kodster]

The Crash & Burn Tournament 2

*thumbs up*

Been a little busy this weekend...sorry for not being more responsive. =P

[knightrous]

The Crash & Burn Tournament 2

Me too.. Hence the sudden change to some older entries as fillers. Im also learning Solidworks, so Im gonna probably end up CADing my final entry in Solidworks as a test, so it might make the entry a little late

Just nudge me if I havent posted it all before the deadlines...

[kodster]

The Crash & Burn Tournament 2

Err...is anyone entering Terrorhurtz? Hes the 13th seed, you know. And since many other vapours/realies that couldve been vapours are out, if Terrorhurtz doesnt get in, then the 16th seed will be...Infusion. No, Im not joking. It will be Infusion.

(Message edited by kodster on February 21, 2007)

[dinowarrior]

The Crash & Burn Tournament 2

Soz, but Im not willing to change anyone else, despite how tempting it would be to have four seeds in my name. Im sticking with Disc-O, and if that does result in Terrorhurtz not being seeded...well, thatll be great for Infusion.
