Mr. Psycho

Mr. Psycho made its debut in the sixth season, designed by Robin Englebright. Mr Psycho was by far the heaviest of the House Robots, weighing in at 750kg, and the largest robot ever to appear in Robot Wars history.

Its design was very similar to that of Sir Killalot, featuring caterpillar tracks and a powerful claw weapon. The design differed from Sir Killalot in that Mr Psycho had a swinging hammer weapon instead of the lance that Sir Killalot wields, the head of the hammer alone weighing 30 kg and has a hydraulic accumulator and is powered by a 9 ton shoulder and elbow ram. Its claw is powered by two 9 ton hydraulic rams running at 3000 psi (21 MPa). It runs on caterpillar tracks of the same type used for Sir Killalot and are powered by two Briggs and Stratton 5hp electric motors run at 48 volts, which are controlled by two 300 ampere speed controllers. The chassis is constructed from thick walled steel box section and the head is fabricated in fibreglass. At 750 kg, Mr. Psycho is the heaviest robot in the history of Robot Wars. Despite this, it is not invulnerable to being flipped, as Firestorm 4 proved in Extreme Series 2.

Noticeable Appearances

 * Along with Growler, Cassius Chrome and Refbot, Mr. Psycho appeared in the House Robot Rebellion. After Growler and Chrome were put out of action, Psycho took revenge on Gravity, hammering it to a pulp with his hammer. Behemoth then tried to use Gravity as a shield against Psycho, but to no avail. Behemoth's axe snapped off while trying to damage Psycho, but evidently did some damage, as Psycho broke down shortly after. Try all he might, Behemoth could not lift Mr. Psycho.
