Here are some new CAD pix of the SOUL SPLITTER. The actual robot is coming along, as the students have started putting on the drive train system at the new correct height. This is key as the armor/ frame must be close to the floor so other bots cannot easily get under it to flip it over. Yes, the blades spin in opposite directions for max destruction of the opponent's steel/ iron armor plates. **We also aquired a HONDA gas powered robot that we plan on attaching a pneumatic T-shirt launcher for the football/ baseball/ soccer games. Sweet.We are also learning some basic programming skizillz so they can move on to controllers, sensors, motors, servos, etc......
Here is the A.R.M. w/ conveyor belt that goes through basic teach pendant programming, then we go on to attribute programming, then JAVA based then, oh yes, C programming near the end of the year.
We also have a student in advanced engineering that took my robotix
class last year who is working on a 'humaniod' bipedal robot. This requires lots of micro-servos and gyros to help with balance, but he has the top half almost done (from the chest up). Here is the basic mechwarrior that he designed for it. The feet aren't finalized and the missle launchers will NOT be made. School safety, dang it.

You can find some of these .STL/ .DWG files online, but I enjoy making them myself.
