that would on one part be awesome. but bare in mind that in the end, both of those might get pushed around like a set of slaves. they may be good on there own weightclass, but against the higher weightclass, i seriously doubt that they will have enough power.

with some work and new motors i think he has a pretty good chance as a multi bot

mind you aside from the burning batteries thats a 50 pound robot manhandling a 220 pound robot

The batteries double as an emergency flamethrower/smokescreen weapon.

And the new Apollyon looks good.

I've decided to give the aluminum frame one more go. Using all 7075 this time, so it should be a fair bit stronger per pound.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #427 on:** December 01, 2010, 02:37:46 AM »

That already looks stronger.

Wouldn't want to machine that myself though. It looks like one of those cut-out paper snowflakes.

Yeah, some of the detail work is a bit nuts, but it's designed so all of the non tapped holes can be done via waterjet, so it should go fairly smoothly.

Some more detail work on the chassis-

Additions include openings at the front for glowing green eyes/power lights, two more "spacers" to hold the top armor in place and modification of the rear standoffs to attach the baseplate to them. One feature not visible is the tapped holes in the bottom of the rear standoffs that will allow me to adjust blade angle for individual opponents.

For Mike, building bots IS a party.

Bot's looking good.

Well, that and I spent most of the day doing other stuff, this was just some detail work after I got back home.

powerrave · « **Reply #435 on:** December 05, 2010, 08:00:31 AM »

it looks good so far. i'm more worried about how it will do in practise. wouldn't want it to havok again.

MikeNCR · « **Reply #436 on:** December 08, 2010, 10:44:39 PM »

Here's a neat shot of all three bots I'm planning to take to moto-

Mini apollyon = <3

MikeNCR · « **Reply #439 on:** December 14, 2010, 01:44:04 AM »

Completely wired Apollyon tonight. It appears that the dewalt motors were damaged in some way when Mr. SD blew up. Going to see if I can get them going again. Worst case, I order a few more spares.

Weight with everything but a bit of paint is 11lbs 14.6oz, so 1.4oz to spare for paint, not counting the weight that'll be taken off when I put an edge on the wedge.
