Cruelty

3D Model

A combat robot after the spirit of Hal Rucker’s “Whoops”. This one has an articulated drive system: the front wheels are on hinges which lets them be raised and lowered by linear actuators. The actuators are cushioned somewhat by sturdy springs.

Cruelty is shown here with its ram configuration, but it also has two other interchangeable front attachments: a rack of thick forks and a tall plow.
