The body is made of AR400 steel and we swap out our top plate thickness depending on the opponent. Each half is a box and the design is fully mirrored on the other side, so each half can run independently of each other. Our tip speed is about 220mph-250mph, but this changes based on the length of the bar.

All of our bars weigh 30lbs and are made of AR500 steel. HUGE has a large assortment of weapon bars that we swap out depending on the opponent. Our legs are also made of 1in thick UHMW and they allow us to brace against the ground to move forwards, and balance HUGE enough to be able to drive.

On our smaller weight classes of the robot we use UHMW entirely for the body as well. Our HUGE wheels are made of 1in thick ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW for short).
