Sir Spinalot

Weapon - not okay. Length gone overboard, width way too small

The rest - fine

[bartmanhomer]

How big should Sir Spinalot weapon should be?

[kodster]

Somewhere within 1.1-1.5 times the body diameter, then it will hit opponents. Width...make it at least 5-10cm. That should be good. Thickness is alright.

so it should 2000 x 500 x 500 then?

Probably something like 1500 x 75 x 10 would be better.

A titanium spinning bar with dimensions 1500mm x 75mm x 10mm, will weigh approximately 4.9kg. Going at 1000rpm, it will produce 5.1kJ.

Andre, I think you should lower the amount of Magmotors you have powering your weapon and your drive. 2 S28-400s for drive and 2 for weapon, not 4. It will give Sir Spinalot close to around 10-15mph (pick a speed in-between). Also, your bar should spin at 3000rpm instead of 1000rpm. That will produce about 45.9kJ, which is quite good for a rookie vapourbot.

Secret

Fine. Could be a few more details, but it€™s good enough.

Joey€™s battle

€¦I€™m speechless

Sir Spinalot

€œthe wheels are 4 x s28-400 magamotors€ - interesting

Follow Kody€™s advise and this bot should finally be sorted.

The self-righter should be powered by a linear actuator, not be one. Otherwise I dont see any problems
