Antweight (UK) combat robot - Lifter
thingiverse
Changes on V2: -Lifter now features an elongated D-shaped hole for improved functionality -The robot can be driven with the weapon in a lowered position, offering enhanced maneuverability -Weapon esc has been upgraded to a hacked servo electronic powered by the BEC of the dasmicro, resulting in smoother operation -Wheels have been upgraded to 20mm Team Panoramic units, providing superior traction and stability -The robot has been printed with a lower infill percentage (~78%), reducing weight while maintaining structural integrity -Top armour has not yet been added, but will be incorporated using bent polycarbonate for added protection The design has yet to be tested in actual combat, however Team Panoramic successfully competed with it at AWS 53. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gt-b1N7ux4&t=1s Old wheels should still fit on the robot, providing a convenient upgrade option. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A 4wd combat robot designed for the UK antweight class (also known as fairyweight in the US) is currently under development. The goal is to create a robot that fits within the designated cube space, but this has yet to be confirmed through testing. The robot is printed using PETG material with a high infill percentage (95%), but its durability in combat situations remains uncertain. ABS and carbon fibre reinforced nylon are commonly used materials for 3d printing combat robots due to their superior strength. The wheels are made from filaflex, but molded polyurethane would offer improved grip. The robot's frame is constructed using an old set of files, requiring some rework to ensure proper fitment. New files should resolve this issue, but verification has yet to be completed. Parts used in the robot's construction: 4x ebay 12mm 6V 500rpm motors 1x Hobbyking 15mm 1:298 gearmotor 1x DasMikro 2s6a power system 1x cheap brushed esc from ebay 1x Optipower 2s 120mah battery pack (1x Futaba r6004ff + T8fg radio system) The electronics can be easily attached using hot glue, while the parts of the lifters can be joined by a string of filament. The wheels should be secured to the motors using glue, and the lifter was designed to attach directly to the motor shaft. If this attachment method proves unreliable, a set screw (m3) may need to be installed. https://youtu.be/fSeLY7b3J-M
