With or Without you
Part 1
Name – With you
Shape – Invertible box with sloped sides and a front-scoop
Weight – 50 Kilogram
Speed – 18 mph
Dimensions – 60x60x13 cm
Ground Clearance – 5 mm under the main body, 0 mm under the scoop
Power – 4 x Mag S28-400's at 24v
Movement – 4 wheels, sellotaped like Storm 2’s
Turning Circle - Zero
Weaponry – One damn hard front-scoop
Armour – 3mm Hardox top and sides, 4 mm titanium rear and bottom, 5 mm Hardox front-scoop
Srimech – It’s invertible
Part 2
Name – Without you
Shape – Look at the picture. Really a box with everything sloped except for the rear.
Weight – 50 Kilogram
Speed – 12 mph
Dimensions – 60x60x13 cm for the main body, the bar is 105 cm wide
Ground Clearance – 0 at the front, 5 mm anywhere else
Power – 2 S28-150 Magmotors at 24v
Movement – 2 wheels, sellotaped like Storm 2’s, there's a castor in the front for added agility
Turning Circle - Zero
Weaponry – An angled titanium spinning bar powered by a LEM130, technically gives protection over 360 degrees, but due to the angle the weapon’s about 20 cm off the ground when at the rear, unable to hit really low machines, which means I only have 180 degrees of protection against machines that are 20 cm or lower.
The bar roughly has a mass of 15 kg and a width of 105 cm. It spins around at 7500 rpm and delivers blows of roughly 420 kJ.
Armour – 4 mm aluminum everywhere except for the bottom, which is made of 4 mm polycarb. There's some weight reducing holes in the bottom to keep the weight down.
Srimech – None
Ok, here’s the deal – I believe I found a good and creative way to make clusterbots worthwhile. Part 2 is a powerful spinner with a vulnerable spin-up time. Part 1 compensates for this. This brick takes on the opponent buying Part 2 the time to spin-up, and wreck havoc
Strengths – Great synergy between bots, a great lightweight rambot and a great lightweight spinner in one heavyweight. Good weapon-power. Great acceleration given both bots are only 50 kg.
Weaknesses – New strategy. Part 1 is ineffective when inverted, Part 2 is beaten when inverted.
