Description
Doomba's acting mission statement is to test competitive, novel technologies in a beautifully designed package. Each version of Doomba will bring something new to the arena and stride ahead of the previous version.
Doomba version one was publicly announced November 2021 by builders Jake Hoffmann, Henry Tran and Joe Murphy. In its first iteration it was designed to be a horizontal mid-cutter. The original concept sports the impact absorbing formed UHMW shock armor.
After Xtremebots spring 2022 Doomba received a ground up redesign. Doomba in its current form is designed as a high energy undercutter. The body maintains the formed UHMW armor which is shock mounted using biomimiced TPU hyoid bones. The armor plow sports 2 skulls, representing the project's wins against 'Special Spatula' and 'Herbie 2'

Weapon is fabricated from AR600 steel welded to a live shaft driven on tapered roller bearings. This allows Doomba to take extreme impacts without compromising frame or weapon integrity.
