I think that before asking anyone for help, you would need to prove that you (and your current team) are up to the task.
Not that I would like to join, but so far, it seems like a project on paper alone, so people that could have the ability won't know how far you are, how much you managed to accomplish, and what is needed from them (code, models, gameplay ideas?).
I only say that for you, as I personally would be more interested by a defense mod than a robot one, but please also remember to have fun making the mod itself.
