Expanding on the modular design, what about when it gets to the stage where a robot has modular drive, weapon, armour, electronics and chassis? Basically you turn up with 2-3 chassis, 2-3 drive trains, a bunch of modular weapons and electronics to run each setup. You would no longer have a robot, but a collection of robotic lego...
I know it would take a lot of design and effort to do such a thing, but it is possible and would really make it unfair. Example: Image if in the middle of an F1 race if Michael Schumacher pulled in and had his crew drop an entirely new motor in half way through a 120 lap race, they could then tune the motors to produce more HP and torque while sacrificing a bit of wear on the motor because they know they can change the motor half way if they like.
The ball keeps rolling.... _________________ https://www.halfdonethings.com/
