House of NERC ! Competing with the big boys RoboKnight made a respectable show winning 2 out of 3 before having to leave early.

Mouseasaurus

Mouseasaurus is our first Fairy weight bot, and our third overall. This particular bot is really a hacked bot, little more that some alumimum cut and shaped around the body of a micro RC car. But the results are fantastic. This little guy is really wicked. He is sporting a tail with some heavy bolts (originally cut sheet metal but that proved too heavy).

The primary method of attach is to spin around and use the tail as sort of a ram. It that fails hiting the opponent head on and trying to flip him might work too.

Thi s bot was built primarily for the younger members of Team Crazy Dad and the upcoming PennBot tournament.

Vitals:
Armor: Aluminum
Weapon: spinning tail (primary), wedge (seconday)
Record: new
