Flippant Torque was a competitor robot designed to be entered into Series 3 and Series 4 of Robot Wars. However, it was not completed in time for it to appear in Series 3, and failed to enter Series 4 either, although it is unclear whether it failed to qualify or simply did not apply for the latter. The team was based in Ipswich, Suffolk

Design

Flippant Torque was a two-wheeled robot designed with a CO₂ powered lifting weapon, with fibreglass composite armour and two 900W motors, a power system which the team believed to be unique and innovative.
