Name: DownFall
Weight: 80kgs
Shape: Box shaped with a front wedge and sloping sides.
Colour: Blue bodywork with a silver axe.
Length: 800mm
Width: 750mm
Height: 250mm
Motivation: There are four wheels. They are made of Titanium and are 200mm in diameter. Each wheel has a Vulkolan tyre bonded to it for extra grip on the arena floor.
Drive: 2x S28-400 Magmotors run at 24v from 3600mAh NiCad battery packs. This gives around 9hp in the drive to push other robots around with.
Turning Circle: 0m using a skid steer system.
Speed: 16mph
Ground Clearance: 0mm at the front wedge and 8mm at the sides and rear.
Armour: The main body is made up of a 5mm Titanium monocoque. The front wedge also has a 4mm plate of HDPE on top.
Weapon: The main weapon is a 750mm long Hardox axe with a Shunt style blade. This is operated using a rack and pinion system driven by a 250mm stroke 100mm bore ram. The ram is pumped with liquid CO2 at a pressure of 170psi providing around 900kgs of force.
SRIMECH: The axe is used to self-right DownFall. The shape means that it can always rest on its axe while turned over.
Notes: 80kg bots FTW!
