Robot Name: LowDown
Dimensions (L x W x H): The main body is 70cm x 40cm x 8cm
Shape: Invertible box with an angled < shaped back end and large bolts on the side to stop stranding.
Colour: The main shell is red, with the edges painted white. Lifting forks are red with white dots spray painted randomly over them.
Weight: Around 100kg, maybe a couple of kgs lighter.
Drive: 2 x S28-400 Magmotors running at 24v, powered by NiCads.
Top Speed: About 12mph.
Wheels: 6 x 10cm diameter wheels made from Titanium/Vanadium alloy and coated with Vulcalore. The robot has 3 wheels on each side, with the power going directly to the middle wheels. Each set of wheels is linked with a heavy duty rubber belt.
Armour: 4mm Hardox all over the machine bolted directly to the chassis (which is made from mild steel tubing) with thick Hardox bolts.
Weaponry: A pair of electronic lifting forks powered by 2 x S28-400 Magmotors running at 36v. The Mags are on a 75:1 reduction and can be used even when flipped. The Mags are powered by some 36v NiCad batteries. The forks are made from 6cm Hardox, are 20cm long and are cone-shaped, with the point facing the front.
Turning Circle: 0m
Ground Clearance: 1cm all over.
Srimech: Invertible.
