Hows this?

INFERNO

€ WEIGHT: 100kg.

€ ARMOUR: 10mm Titanium on top and bottom, with 6mm Weldox plating around the sides. It also has 1 Inch worth of PU Foam, 1cm of Vulkalon rubber and 0.5cm of PU foam in between each of the motors to stop it self-destructing. All of the armour is curved over so no panels can be torn.

€ SHAPE: Low cylinder shape.

€ MOTORS: 2 x S28-150 MagMotors at 24V = 6HP

€ LOCOMOTION: 4 x 30mm diameter Vulkalon treaded tyres.

€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 90CM (W) 90CM (H) 10CM

€ COLOUR: Black on top and bottom, with flames going around the outer rim. The disc is natural Hardox colour, with the name €˜INFERNO€™ in fire colours.

€ WEAPONRY: A large horizontal disc mounted on top, made from 8mm thick Hardox, weighing 35kg in weight, with teeth non-attached teeth, as in the teeth are shaped from the dis, not needing to have teeth surgically attached. The teeth reached out 6cm, and are bent at the end to come down to a high of 8cm, and therefore, it can strike low down. The disc is powered by 2 x S28-400 MagMotors at 36V, and get up to 2500rpm in the space of 2-2.5 seconds, and 140kj is the output achieved.

€ SPEED: 10MPH

Other than that, good.

Yeah,no point in such a thick plate if you got an 8mm hardox disc over it.

[paulc]

So Kody, is it possible that if I thin the top to 5mm Titanium and make it bend down to a height of 3cm, I could replace D.V.D: The Sequel in C&B 3 with Inferno?

Also, can you do a render of it please?

[kodster]

How could I Improve pt 2

Whoa, slow down, Paul. :P

First, I dont think youll really need much armour on top...3mm titanium sounds good. And 7cm of clearance between the blades and the ground is still pretty bad because most flippers would get under the body before being hit by the blades.

Replacing D.V.D., sure. But only if you improve Inferno.

And rendering? Im kinda busy updating my house bot squad with renders ATM. :P

I meant 3cm FROM the ground

[kodster]

How could I Improve pt 2

Then put that instead of bend down to a height of, you silly git. That makes me think the blades are 3cm down from the disc.

Samuel, you should have posted these here first instead of posting them in C&B3...meh, Ill have a look.

Fatality - 1kg Hardox teeth seem rather small. Id reduce the weight of the shell by taking off about a mm of Hardox and make the teeth bigger...say...3kg. Also, how many kg is the single CO2 tank?

Axetra - 4kJ of force...your axe is going to die. Beta could hardly manage 3kJ and that was with magnets on metal floors...seriously lower it, at least by half. Terrorhurtz has like 500J of force in its own axe...maybe more, and look what it can do.

Mad Dash - You dont need a monocoque for the scoop. Do you know what a monocoque is? Think about that before you include it. Also...5mm titanium for the base? What about the rest of the armour?

V.ENO.M. - James Cooper has taken the name, actually. Venom, as far as I know, is a clone of Razer. Name aside, tracks are always a weak spot no matter how strong they are. Also, I doubt youll have IMMENSE pushing power with S28-400s, but whatever.

Ramminator - You state a sawblade on a wedge, when you shape says you have a box with a scoop in front. I see no wedge. Also, whats Asmaprene urethane? Care to explain?

Bubonic Plague aka Black Death 2 - Might be a bit optimistic with the amount of weaponry on there, and the power. Again, whats with the immense pushing power if youre running S28-400s? And no side ground clearance?

Walk Don€™t Run 3€˜n a half - Uh...again, tell us what this lovely Asmaprene is, and why you associate insane pushing power with S28-400s, please.

Paralyzation 2 - More Asmaprene...explain. And a great pusher. Again, tell us how. 3.5mm ground clearance might make you less manoeuvrable, so Id raise that.

And thats all I have to say on the matter for now.
