The R.O.C

[welshwarlord]

Robot Name: Collateral Damage
Paint Image: (with setup 1) s354.photobucket.com/albums/r402/welshwarlord/?action=view¤t=CollateralDamage.jpg
Shape: Box wedge, similar to Panic Attack
Weight: 100kg
Length: 80cm
Width: 80cm
Height: 25cm
Motivation: 6 x internal vulkalon tyres. The front 2 are slightly raised to give more manoeuvrability, but when the robot is pushed or pushes they come down to give more power.
Drive: 2 x LEM-130s at 36v, 18HP, powered by 4 x NiCad battlepacks
Armour: 4mm hardox on top, sides, rear and front, 5mm aluminium base
Weaponry: There is always a rear hinged arm that can rise into the air via 2 linear actuators, and the front of it is just 1cm away from the ground. It has several things that can be attached to the end depending on the opponent:
Setup 1) Panic Attack style lifting forks, powered by hydraulics at 1500psi, the forks lift and then the arm goes up to flip or lift the opponent higher unless a say otherwise
Setup 2) a 50cm long spike, powered by a 2kg co2 bottle at 750psi, the idea is to get underneath and lift with arm, then use the spike to pierce weak areas or flip
Setup 3) a 7mm hardox wedge, angled at 42* to deflect spinner attacks, it is completely static, but can just work to get underneath to allow the arm to lift
Setup 4) a vertical grabbing claw, powered by 2 x linear actuators, it can grab the opponent and then lift them into the air
Top Speed: 17mph
Ground Clearance: Effectively 0 at front due to whatever setup is there, and effectively 0 at sides and rear due to 5mm titanium skirts, behind them there is 6mm of clearance
Turning Circle: 0
Srimech: The arm
Colour: Dark blue with some yellow and purple stripes on top and evil red eyes on the front
Strengths: Variety of weaponry
Weaknesses: Weaponry could be useless against some opponents
Notes: Mute-style barbs on the top of the robot can trap opponents and heavily shock-proofed

Bio; This was originally Collateral Damage-ier, un update of a Panic Attack style bot that never fought. Since I can't find the old stats I'm starting afresh
Lifespan: July 2008-Present
Robots and Vapourbots Defeated: None
Achievements: None
Battle Record: 0-0

Thanks very much to Kody for this awesome CAD

Robot Name: The R.O.C (Revenge of Collateral)
Shape: Box with wedges on all sides, the front wedge has a Firestorm-style blade for zero ground clearance
Weight: 100kg
Length: 90cm
Width: 95cm
Height: 15cm
Motivation: 4 x internal vulcanised wheels, mounted like those of Tazbot for extra manouevrability
Drive: 2 x PERM 080s @ 24v
Batteries: 2 x NiCad battlepacks
Armour: 6-8mm grade 2 titanium for the most part, with 4mm hardox in key areas and 10mm HDPE on the base, with 4mm grade 2 titanium additional protection in key areas
Weaponry: This robot has an interesting weapon synergy onvolving;
1) A rear hinged lifting arm, hinged at the centre of the robot's length and width. It is powered by an S28-400 at 24v for quick lifting, and it can raise to 2 levels- 75 degrees when lifting and 270 degrees when it needs to self-right/reset the flipper. The arm raises in about half a second
2) An upside down U-shaped front hinged flipper. The lifting arm is hinged in between the hinges of this weapon. It is powered by a 2 x 1.1kg co2 bottles and 2 x 85mm non-attached rams at 750psi, meaning it gets about 10 flips. Normally the rams wouldn't work when non-attached because of the way it is hinged, but the lifter will already be raised when the flipper is raised and so can quickly move back the rest of the way to reset the flipper
The way the weapon synergy works is this- the lifter lifts the opponent to 75 degrees, then uses the flipper to throw them about 7 feet up and across because of the placing of flipper and lifter. Then the lifter resets the flipper.
Speed: 15mph
Turning Circle: 0
Ground Clearance: 0 at the front, 7mm at sides and rear
Srimech: The flipper can right the robot, but the lifter will be used to conserve gas (unless for some reason it can't be
Strengths: Weapon Synergy, good armour
Weaknesses: No damaging weaponry
