    Just an idea; like you said, titanium while relatively hard, it's not that hard compared to hardened steel, but what you could try to improve edge retention when slamming into stuff is carbidizing the edges of the blades. It's basically welding a thin layer of tungsten-carbide onto one side of the edge to give it a much harder surface. I know that some knifemakers do that when/if they make titanium blades.

    As an American beetleweight and antweight builder, the ultimate design that I have been working at is an overhead bar spinner that uses shuffle pods instead of wheels. This gives the bot a 25% weight bonus, allowing for a more powerful weapon motor and a heavier bar. Additionally, this would be made out of a central TPU chassis for maximum damage absorption with aluminum top and bottom armor for rigidity. Oh and by the way, that weapon blade being given away would come in quite handy for my first fairyweight build! 😉
    Thanks for all the entertaining content and hard work!

    Hey Angus! I been a big fan of battlebots since first seeing the ABC reboot as a kid. I like to think it’s a big reason I developed enough of an interest in pursuing engineering as a career and I’m happy to say I’m now going into my sophomore year of college as a mechanical engineer. It’s been great seeing combat robotics evolve so much over the past years and seeing the success of robots such as Tantrum, Sawblaze, and Huge. I’d say if I were designing an all out dream robot it would be a cross between Tantrum and Whiplash. All of the control of a lifter, and the ability to set precise attacks. Throw in the drivetrain of Claw Viper and it would be an absolute powerhouse!

    I would probably just do Typhoon 2 with some kind of self-righting mechanism as my ultimate battle bot. The armor also being the weapon is a genius way to cut weight down to the point where they were able to power the thing with a small engine rather than the standard batteries, and the power that weapon had as a result is beyond terrifying. When your armor spins, every blow is glancing!

But I used a aluminum tube as the drum with a titanium bar on one side of it and all of the eltronics are inside the drum with the wheels on the outside. It works like a robot called noob tube but I put a rap around wedge that goes around one side so it can be somewhat defensive too. But this design is cool because around 3/4 of the weight is in the weapon.

    The robot I always wanted was a specialized anti-horizontal spinner bot (I imagined this back when Tombstone was dominating everything): use squishy armor that would (hopefully) slow down and catch those crazy fast blades, but use their own force to ram a large spike on the side of my robot into the side of theirs. Possibly up the ante with a spring-powered punch system like they use on centerpunches. Since it uses the enemy's strength against it, I might call it Aikido. Wish I could be there across the bay at OpenSauce - tickets are all gone though. Good luck! I would love to see more robot combat content. I love battlebots but would like to see more between seasons.

    I want to make a heavy flywheel which drives a super grippy tyre on the top of a wedge bot through a special clutch. I had the realisation that the impact of a spinner with claws making contact breaks the attacker more often than the opponent. What breaks the opponent is throwing them really hard, and hard surfaces don't really hold onto the opponent very well. So the idea is getting under them so they're wedged up on top of a dragster tyre, then dumping the clutch to grip them like crazy and throw them as hard as any other spinner. Rather than a glancing blow, every time you can wait for the opponent to be fully resting on the tyre before throwing them. If you're upside down, you also get no resistance to spinning up the flywheel and the tyre can throw you hard enough to self-right.

    My dream combat robot, I'm actually in the process of designing. It is a double drum with both drums in the front. They would be supported in the middle with a pair of forks like Scorpios, but back to back as to push the opponent to the outside. The drums would be fully reversible, and the bot designed to drive up side down. This way, no self righting would be required. The drums would be independently controlled so the gyroscopic action can be negated or utilized for steering. This would probably end up a paper tank like minotaur.

    Dream-bot concept: Swarm-bot - where the robot divides into multiple robots to attack as a pack. Most battlebot designs assume one opponent so will struggle against a swarm. E.g., 3 robots, the first, a vertical blade spinner, takes the attention of the opponent's weapon. Meanwhile the second, a lifter comes around the back to expose the drive wheels or some other vulnerability. The third, a pancake, sneaks under and destroys the drive wheels.

    If I had to do a tiny bot, I think I'd want to recreate Mythbusters' Blendo. In one of Savage's videos, he goes over how Blendo was so obnoxiously effective that it actually flung bots over the barrier and into the crowd. The team was pulled aside, given an award, and told not to bring Blendo back because their lawyers would have an aneurysm. Savage said it was basically the best possible result you could ever hope for.
    A smaller version that's proportionally easier to handle but just as lethal in its weight class just seems like the perfect thing to do.

    Put traction grip pads under the front of the robot, so when the spinner engages the enemy and lifts the enemy, it pushes the front of your robot down and grips the floor. You need a little bit of spring at the front to hold the traction pad JUST above the floor and and a lot of traction pad area.

    So, one mechanical concept rules light weight battle bots. The ability to store up energy to unleash all at once, hitting far above the weight class would imply.
    This is why spinners are so common, because the ability to spin up the weapon to high RPM for a single blow allows even featherweights to hit like bullets.
    One idea I'd love to see is that idea taken to the extreme. A bot that uses elastic tension and a winch system to draw a metal spike back, then stab it into the enemy. like a crossbow that's made for melee. (No projectile, the bolt never actually leaves the weapon)
    I've seen this idea handled a different way in Robot Wars with Pain. That robot used a Co2 canister to fire a piston, but the weapon idea was the same. Stab the enemy at high speed.

    Hi Angus! My idea is that since combat robots don't seem to have much armor on the bottom, we can use a forklift style lifting arm to lift the robot up, and then cut into it from the bottom, using a small spinning blade. Weight would probably be the limiting factor, since the forklift arm needs to be long enough it can pick up robots, and move high enough that the opponent can't just drive off the arms. Or maybe some controlled flipper style mechanism, which will reliably flip robots on their back, and then a simpler cutting arm can cut from above.

    If I were to build a battle bot I would name it "Viceroy" due to it's dual mandible design intended to crush its opponents' frames. Think stag beetle mandible shape.
    Though maybe one mandible would be better because all the power goes to one arm instead of being split between two. In this case think hercules beetle mandible shape.
    The only real problem I can see is the holding/grappling rules restricting the crush timing to a minimum.

    Using the spining blade you made and using it vertically in the front (if the blade were balanced it could be used horizontally to counteract the gyro effect when turning and even use it as a self balancing feature making it harder to flip the bot as it would stay horizontal in the air).
    For locomotion just one power wheel in the back and a servo upfront that would touch the ground creating drag to steer the bot.
    With that much weight saving you could make a sturdy chassis to allow the bot to take a beating.
    Another option would be to have a massive capacitor and explode it when touching the other bot as a 1 shot weapon.

    my current idea is hammer saw/ beater bar with the beater mounted in an articulating arm, so it could function as a vert or a top attack robot with more memetic energy than a typical hammer saw.

    My idea for a battlebot would be something like my current design: having a floor scraping wedge, a vertical disc/drum/bar spinner, a shock-mounted rear wedge and having tracks instead of wheels that utilise motors with a 50:1 gear ratio.

    My dream battlebot resembles an upside-down traffic cone. It has a single track-ball wheel and uses gyrosensors and Segway-style control strategy to balance and move about on its one wheel. It can also telescope along its vertical axis, and expand quickly to hop. Its weapon is a downward-firing spike. It is a glorious combination of a OneWheel, pogo stick, and jackhammer. It is finicky, obscure, unique, and will deliver spectacular death-blows. You can include a righting mechanism if you're the sort of wimp who thinks high-performance aircraft should have ejection seats. An alternate version has wheels top and bottom and a hinge in the middle, allowing it to do flips and cartwheels.

  • @LucasPlay171
    @LucasPlay171 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Flamethrower would be cool but no place to store the stuff so
    A shock bot, it has some kind of taser or tesla coil or something so Powerful that would basically turn off the opponent, I'm not sure if that's allowed
    In case it isn't here's another idea: egg robot, or well more like sphere robot, I'm not 100% certain how you'd move it but i have a few ways in my mind (having "cuts" that work like wheels) and make the robot as indestructible as it can get and make it really fast.

  • @informaturge
    @informaturge 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My plan is to make a little hub on wheels that could drive around, surrounded by a big horizontal belt drive. Just a big round spinning neoprene belt orbiting around a little drive robot. In my mind it would win by chucking the opposing robot at walls on contact. Admittedly, it's probably not a very consistent win condition, but at least it's dramatic. I've also long suspected that giving the hub robot enough traction to counter the force of the whirling belt would be a bit of a pain, though.

  • @richard-likes-to-travel

    It’s about the damage, a two stage hit would be my preference. Like a two parts hammer, flat hammerhead hits and if angle shows it hit the robot the spiked hammer follows (prevents nailing yourself to the floor). Or two spinning disks with opposite rotations, you either hit it hard enough with one or resistance will drag the other disk into play. This is for mini robots, for larger it’s usually just about compactness-hitting power balance

    • @theexchipmunk
      @theexchipmunk 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hm, the two opposing spinning discs are an interesting idea. I actually get an image of a nastier bizarro version of Blendo´s weapon combined with the shape of vertical spinners like the one here in my mind. Two high mass horizontal spinners with a single protruding "blade"/impactor each. With some nice programming and variable speed one could add in an absolutely devastating function. Normal spinners create a high energy impact and throw their opponent away. But if you get smart with the horizontal double array, you can vary the speed and basically create a hammer-shear that can be created in any direction by varying the rotational speed and changing the point where the blades overlap. Its a good defense as one blade alone would throw away an opponent, but if the enemy bot gets in between the "kill zone" that both blades meet at, it could do massive amounts of damage by just shearing chunks out of it.

  • @candyman_5005
    @candyman_5005 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I would design a robot with 4 wheels, a large vertical spinner, a counterbalancing flywheel (for stabilization) and long forks on linkages. Using a servo the forks tilt down and lift the robot onto two wheels so that the forks have the maximum low ground. There would also be electro magnets on the bottom to keep it on the floor.

  • @W0B0N

    My ultimate robot design would be a two arm battle bug that has curved flipper arms armed with spinner blades similar to yours. The arms would be mounted in the middle and be able to swing from left to right. It would have a futuristic look similar to the cyber truck but a very organic squid like paint job. Has been a blast. Thank you for sharing.

  • @Guroji
    @Guroji 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My ideal robot's main strategy would be to immobilize the competition. It would purposely have materials hanging off of it that would hopefully get tied up in the enemy robot. clog the wheels, the main weapon, and hopefully anything else that spins. Once its achieved this, it would have a pincher of some kind to squeeze the enemy, in hopes to pierce armor and delete electronics

    HI Maker's Muse do you have already videos talks about the Z-offset variations between filaments. I just find out, the Z-offset is very stable when I change filaments between ABS/PLA/PETG filaments for using 3.9mm as Z-offset, but as soon as I switched to use Wood filament (PLA based) I suddenly need to set it to 4.0mm to have good bed adherence. The same setting for other filaments will be too small and starts to observe elephant foots.

    Love the combat robots, ant weight looks like quite the challenge. I did have a design in mind, a disk-shaped robot similar to a simple spinner but with two toothed and counter-rotating rings completely encircling robot. The teeth on the bottom ring could be angled downwards if necessary to protect from wedge robots. It might even be possible to stop the weapon and use the teeth to pinch other bots so they could be dragged to pits or other hazards. I call it "Crown of Thorns."

    As a fellow Aussie, I would love to make a battlebot called the Akubra, with a hat shaped top surrounded by weights on strings (like corks), that spins to act as the weapon. It will be self-righting because the bowl-shaped top and uneven weight distribution will put one side of the weapon in contact with the ground and the spinning will right it

Basically, imagine the Aurora [possibly fictional] spy plane, and make it into a wedge and vertical circular saw type fighting robot.

    After I saw you last Combat Robot video I got intrigued and found there's a combat robot league near me and have been designing in OnShape. For the Titanium spinner I'd mount it in the middle of the body and have a circular wedge type body, almost like a lifter, to get underneath the opponent and force it into the spinning blade.

    My bot would be a ring spinner with wheels that pass through both sides. The ring would feature weapons on swingarms that use inertia to spread open and increase the reach while spinning. While at rest, an elastic band pulls the arms in. The ends of the arms feature a spike that will concentrate the forces into the opponent. I call this concept, Thornwhip
