Hammertron was a robot that exclusively competed in Series 3 of Robot Wars. In its qualifier. Hammertron caused significant damage to a set of breeze-blocks, which was enough to see it qualify for the main competition.

  • Hammertron was a robot that exclusively competed in Series 3 of Robot Wars. In its qualifier. Hammertron caused significant damage to a set of breeze-blocks, which was enough to see it qualify for the main competition. The version seen on television was a revised version of the one seen in the qualifiers, which had been lighter, slower and had had smaller hammers. The team also considered entering another robot called Armstrong that was equipped with a motorised self-righting arm and used a suction system so it would stay low and hard to push. The team scrapped the suction feature in favour of making a better engineered robot. They even attempted to create Hammertron Mk2 though it's unknown if the robot attempted to qualify for the Forth Wars. "The new Robot, HAMMERTRON Mark2, was started in earnest immedietly after We returned home and was complete in around four Months at a cost of just � The tracks and control gear being the only components used from the Mk1. The logos were sourced from my mate Gary down at:- 'The Sign shop', in Hanworth, Middlesex. The paint used is M.O.D. issue matt black containing anti infra-red detection ingredients! The tracks (timing belts) were sourced from 2-3 local Peugeot/Citroen dealers and are ex-service items that are usually thrown away, so didnt cost anything! They are from the 1.9 XUD Diesel engine.
