Robot Name: Macbeth
Dimensions (L x W x H): 85cm x 75cm x 40cm
Shape: Invertible box, sides are slanted. The rear of the robot is completely vertical, like a normal box, but on the sides are two scooped blades that can be used when inverted.
Colour: Bright yellow with dark yellow trim.
Weight: 100kg
Drive: 2 x 750w Bosch motors running at 24v, powered by a bunch of 24v NiCad batteries.
Top Speed: 20mph, but stays at a conservative 14mph.
Wheels: 2 x 44cm diameter, 20cm wide Titanium/Vanadium alloy hubs, coated in Vulcalon for extra grip on the arena floor. Casters at the front of the machine (one on the top and one on the bottom) aid in manouverability and turning.
Armour: The whole robot covered in 2cm Polypropylene (light but incredibly strong), and according to Matweb weighs a total of 34kg. The rear scooped blades are made from 1cm thick Aluminium alloy.
Weaponry: At the front of the robot is a hefty spinning disc, 40cm in diameter and 3cm thick. It is made from Titanium and has 2 large Titanium blades attached to it, each weighing 5kg. In total the disc weighs 26kg. The weaponry is powered by a LEM130 Lynch motor at 36v geared down to the top speed of the blade is 1500RPM. The motor is powered by some 36v NiCads. The weapon is mounted differently compared to other horizontal spinners – it is placed on the underside of the robot so it can attack like an undercutter (like TopBot in RW).
Turning Circle: 0m
Ground Clearance: 4mm at front (protected by the spinner), 0mm at the back (due to the scooped blades) and 6mm at the sides.
Srimech: Invertible.
