Robot Name: Maleficent (mega brownie points if you know what film the name comes from).
Dimensions (L x W x H): 90cm x 50cm x 35cm
Shape: Invertible box. There are 2 steel spikes on each side to stop it getting beached, and the rear is angled to a point (like this: > )
Colour: The main bodywork is black, but there are green and bright yellow spots painted over it sporadically.
Weight: 100kg
Drive: 2 x S28-400 Magmotors running at 36v, powered by 36v NiCad batteries.
Top Speed: The robot has been geared down so it’s maximum speed is 12mph. Hopefully this will provide it with more torque and a lot more control.
Wheels: 4 x Titanium/Vanadium alloy hubs, coated in Vulcalon. Super grippy!!
Armour: The whole machine is armoured in 35mm HDPE, allowing it to be well armoured but also light at the same time.
Weaponry: At the front of the robot is a 4mm thick Hardox scoop/wedge (kinda like Punjar from Battlebots), with a 3mm Titanium lip at the bottom in order to get underneath machines. Inside the scoop/wedge is a small spinning blade weighing 5kg. It is powered by a LEM130 motor running at 24v and made from a single piece of Titanium/Vanadium alloy. There are 2 teeth on the disc shaped like claws and will hopefully tear at a machines underbelly as well as potentially flipping them. The disc weapon and the scoop/wedge can be taken off individually if necessary, depending on the type of battle Maleficent is taking part in.
Turning Circle: 0m
Ground Clearance: 0mm at the front, 1cm on sides, maximum of 2.5cm at the back.
Srimech: Invertible.
