Well this is the robot design I was hoping to have done for October 15th event, Unfortunately my health seems to have decided to get in the way, but I thought I would post it up here anyway.
To give an idea of scale, the wheels are 8", body is 6" diameter, weapon is 3" diameter by 6" point to point.
Intention was originally to do this with currie gearboxes, but my order of 6 of them (2 for testing, 2 or 4 for bot) never turned up. So this is a modified version for belt drive. With the belts being covered inside the body. I've done the math on this and it should be doable in the featherweight limit, problem will be the balance when the thing is spinning.
And yes the bumper is designed to be sacrificial, probably 1mm wall ALU tubing.
