Insaniti is a beetleweight robot designed, machined, and assembled during the 2021-22 schoolyear. It competed in the 2022 Motorama Robot Combat event. Insaniti is a two-wheeled box-shaped robot armed with a large vertically spinning disk weighing approximately 2.8 pounds. This guide will evaluate design considerations and their consequences.

Design Summary
- Weapon
- Vertical Spinner
- Chasis
- Long prismatic chassis with slots for weight savings.
- The side plates were 3/16” thick Aluminum plates while the front, internal, back, and base plates were ⅛” thick Aluminum plates.
- The top plate was ⅛” thick HDPE.
- Lots of slot-shaped weight savings were implemented.
- The robot features an invertibility stand extended upward from both left and right internal plates.
- All plates are attached with 4-40 screws.
- Extended material from side plates to prevent the front plate from being dragged along the floor.
- Drive
- Two-wheel drive
- Default 3-lb drive motor electronics and assembly
- 3” diameter wheels
Positives
- The chassis is simplistic and does not contain complex geometry, resulting in an easier manufacturing/machining process.
- The extensions from the internal side plates permit the robot to be mobile when flipped.
- The HDPE top plate and ⅛” thick Aluminum base plate provided adequate protection, inflicting little-to-no damage despite being hit by Chonkii and Mauri.
Issues
- There was a possibility of being flipped into a diagonal where the wheels could not move
- Did not have clearance for inverted mode
- Switch was stripped due to being in an awkward position and supported by only wires
- Belt would easily slip off due to no tension
- Weapon motor did not adjustable positioning
- The groove on the pulley was not deep enough
- Weapon motor did not adjustable positioning
- Vertical weight savings being aligned with puzzle fit tap holes meant the armor was weak at those tap holes
- Not very maneuverable
- Too friction by the aluminum stand
- Not enough traction from the foam wheel
- Not enough drive motor power
- Back wheel drive meant imprecise forward movement(more testing)
- Center of gravity not being on wheel
- Too friction by the aluminum stand
