Velociraptors Fanfic Tournament - Series 7!

6 done, 2 to go

this bot will also enter the Challenge Belt

Name - Sheer Heart Attack

Shape - Invertible tracked box, only the main-body between the tracks is shorter then the tracks (as can be seen on the picture), build in such a way that the tracks are in contact with the ground no matter what (like 101), only with two titanium bars at the end of both tracks to protect them from destructive spinners

Weight - 110 Kilogram

Speed - 24 km/h (15 mph)

Dimensions - 90*100*25 cm

Ground Clearance - Zero underneath the tracks, but with an overhang

Power -2x LEM130s at 48v

Movement - Two sturdy titanium tracks, with rubber strips attached to them for traction

Turning Circle - Zero

Weaponry - A 22 kilogram titanium spinning drum at the front of my machine equipped with 10 hardox teeth, powered by a LEM 130 and spinning around at 5000 RPM, which produces nearly 40 kJ.

Armour - 6 mm titanium all around (including the tracks themselves)

Srimech - It€™s invertible

Strenghts - Devestating against most wedges, nice traction
Weakness - Exposed (but quite sturdy) tracks might be a weakness

Notes- I designed this robot to be a robot which gains it€™s advantage by driving OVER an opponent, a bit like Barberous. The exposed tracks are the ultimate way to keep in contact with the floor no matter what kind of ramp I drive up, so that if a good rambot or whatever gets underneath me in a threatening way, I can simply go in full reverse and escape. The drum, ofcourse, is a perfect way to hurt an opponent while he€™s underneath you.

Speed: 40cm a second

Turning circle: 0.
Strengths: Good all arounder, no real weaknesses.
Weakneses: Dosent excel at anything.

Velociraptors Fanfic Tournament - Series 7!

My 7th entry will be the realie Fluffy, my 8th entry will be:

Name - Liar

Shape - A bit like a non-invertible Wheely Big Cheese, it has a fairly wide wheel-to-wheel base at the back, while the front is a much smaller (and pretty long) wedge, the front of the wedge has to €œside wedges€ as can be seen on the pic

Weight - 100 Kilogram

Speed - 29 km/h (18mph)

Dimensions - 120x60x30 cm

Ground Clearance - 0 mm at the front and underneath €œside-wedges€, 7 mm anywhere else

Power - 2 S28-400 Magmotors at 24 volt

Movement - 2 inner wheels, 15 cm in diameter

Turning Circle - Zero

Weaponry - The wedge contains a 1000 psi titanium rear-hinged flipper (basically the red parts of the picture), powered by two pneumatic rams. It should be able to give a 100 kg robot a height of some meters. As can be seen in the picture, the flipper has two €œside-wedges€. I have added them since I saw that flippers tend to be quite weak when attacked at the back. When Liar is attacked at the back, he simply does the same as Stinger does when he goes into flail mode. By doing so, the side wedge will ram into the opponent and shove underneath it. That way I can use my flipper and get it on his back. Although this flip will not be as powerful as a frontal flip, it will be a flip nonetheless, and it will help me get rid of any threats that approach me from the back.

Armour - 8 mm titanium all around

Srimech - That flipper

Strenghts - Powerful and maneuverable flipper
Weakness - Won€™t be pushing much, won€™t be damaging much either

Thanks, Dave! Ill take Iron Awe 3 rather than Black Hole, as Ive never seen the Euro Championship but Ive found details on IA3 on the Net.

Two places left! Is it possible for you to enter after all, Frank and Matty? Theres no pressure, but it would be a help.

Will it be possible to run Wind Chasers flipper on less power, then, Martyn?

[velociraptor]

Velociraptors Fanfic Tournament - Series 7!

Actually Dave, could you replace Son of Whyachi as well? I think its technically a shuffler (correct me if Im wrong) and probably weighed more than 110kg (again, correct me if Im wrong), which would make it overweight for this tournament.
