edit: and you need to change the axle motors, or else I won't allow.

that is if I enter it.. so no AI parts allowed then ? bad news for the judge motor lovers :P

wait, those axle motors are in DSL?

enter Cheatbot2 some time  ;)

they were mainly for looks, I could have crammed any of the small motors in there...

Hmm. OK, then I'll allow it, if you are entering it.

I quite like this bot, so I decided to try it out. Apologies for the not-so-great skinning skills, and for not skinning components XD


Any suggestions for improvements?

Since everyone seems to be jumping on the 'LETS POST OUR RW2 ENTRYS!' bandwagon, thought i would join in :P

Mammoth and my newest robot, Alejandro ^-^
Mammoth was made as more of a joke robot, it acctually looks like its walking and is quite funny :P
Alejandro is my newest robot i've made, this is an old version from a couple of months back, since then the blade has been taken off, it has a wedge at the front and is now being upgraded to an axe bot ^-^
Both are featherweights in real life.
Damn I should probably put something fancy in this bit huh?

Hey Wham!

You should enter Hunter instead, I'm trying to get everyone to enter their RL bots if they have any

edit: Didn't read the part about Alejandro, I think he'll do well if you enter him!

@Veritgo: You was there?! Yeah it was funny having that on, all the roboteers thought it was hillarious :P
@Badnik: Well, Hunter is due for a rebuild, but if you want i might be able to finish Alejandro in the next few weeks so i might be able to enter the axe version (if your lucky :P) If i am would I be allowed to use the 180' hammer motor from the Overkill and TDD! replicas?

Skin the Iron Spike red. And you maybe could use blades instead of beater bars for the white teeth. Other than that it looks great :D
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

For some reason blades refuse to go outside the chassis when attached inside. I'm using DSL bars for the entire front now though, the middle one being an upright 30to20cm. Might change it back to an iron spike though.

@GF: Quite a lot acctually :)
For a start, the outsides are being changed to steel rather than aluminium, and the top and bottom is made out of HDPE.
Its being made more compact inside, much lower and using technobots gold motors rather than the golf caddy motors he's currently using.
But the biggest, no wedge this time, just a flat front and back with spikes at the front, to better help with pushing.
