Looking good...those look more like flywheels than angle grinders though :P

Me: Yes, there are angle grinders in the arena, along the wall of each wall, but not those crappy ones in Robot Wars that didnt do damage. . The discs are 25kg and have 2 7.5kg hardox teeth to destroy with. They spin at 1250rpm and dish out about 50kJ a hit.

:P

Thats not an angle grinder then :wink:.

All right, and in your view what EXACTLY is an angle grinder? A disc that spins at 0rpm? Because thats what it looks like in RW. :P

Shape: Circle

Dont you mean cylinder? Also those dimensions seem quite compact...:wink:

Just a helpful pointer.

Oh, and Aaron...no offense, but I am kind of hoping to get this whole thing kicked off within a few weeks, so maybe if you could have those new vapourbots planned for C&B3, thatd be great, but for now, would it be possible to enter some of your older designs if you havent got new ones up yet?

[knightrous]

The Crash & Burn Tournament: The Dual Duels

Angle grinders use abrasion cutting wheels, and cut by friction. They have no teeth as such. All the sparks are actually fragments of metal flying from the cut.

[kodster]

The Crash & Burn Tournament: The Dual Duels

Bah.

The Discs of Death then.

So, Aaron, are you all right with waiting until C&B3 to show off bots youre still working on (and still will be for a while)? When I say no offense, I mean it because Id really love to see what these new bots look like , but I know how long it can take to make a proper vapourbot and I dont want to push you to finish them too quickly, so...

Okay. Andre, I suggest we use these teamups. Thanks to Kody.

Namies Style/Warhead
Secret/The Matador
Hexadecimator/Sir Spinalot
Razer/Vlad the Impaler
Typhoon 2/Chaos 2
Turbulence/Nightmare
Mechavore/Hypno-Disc
Dantomkia/Biohazard

Also, I am not too fond of Team Simpson. How does Team Demolition sound? I really like this one.

Im actually gonna have to cut my vapourbot upgrades short for about a month. Im hopefully (pending entry approval) competiting in the Kilcoy Road Rally on the 26th of April and need the next few weeks to prepare my not so rally worthy car...

Ill probably be lazy and just throw in the Infusion Family again, some new stats for them coming in the next few days with a render (Currently in the process of trying to model the gearboxes, including spur gears, bearings, shafts, keyways and the electric clutches for the KE boost.)

But looking at the lack of AJ, and my lack of time, we might have to withdraw yet.
