Changes: I Bot One Beta

Revision as of 20:05, 8 July 2014

I Bot One Beta was a German robot that competed in Series 7 of Robot Wars. It was an invertible octagonal-shaped robot with two powerful 10kg spinning weapons, capable of spinning at 3000RPM which the team believed to be strong enough to hold up in their only battle, but had no previous warzone experience. It had 2 1500W motors on the drive system and 1000W for the weapon.

The robot breezed through its qualifier after Tough As Nails and Metalis immboilised each other straight away, Skorpizoid lost drive on one side and a robot made of plywood put up little of a fight, but lost in the first round. It also fought in the World Championship, but was eliminated in the qualifier.

I Bot One Beta was drawn against Hellbent, Mean Streak and Araknia in its first battle of Series 7. It played a minor part in the battle, mostly dodging away from the other competitors, before Hellbent rammed it into the arena wall, causing it to break down. I Bot One Beta was then placed on the floor flipper and thrown.

I Bot One Beta also failed to deliver in the German World Championship Qualifier, against Ansgar 3 and Reaper NP2. It stayed away from the action as Ansgar 3 whacked Reaper NP2 with its spinning blade twice, cutting through the armour and immobilizing it. I Bot One Beta suffered a blow from the blade of Ansgar 3, leaving it only able to move on one side. Ansgar hit it again, as Reaper NP2 was counted out and Ansgar delivered another blow. I Bot One Beta took more punishment from Ansgar as Reaper was thrown by the Floor Flipper, then Ansgar put it out of its misery, pushing it into the pit.
