communication is made up of 93% body language, internet forums lack the ability to use body language therefor "moods" of posts are actually how others read it.... unless you specify something to make them think otherwise such as [/sarcasm] 

anyway on topic, is the Lu-Tze belt drives the only custom stuff on this robot besides the hover engine ?

*sees v2*

Better, but try to use up more of the weight allowed. HW can go up to 800 kgs, so maybe make the chassis bigger, put more motors in and amp up the weapons. You would then probably need a secong Hovercraft motor ( cause of how heavy you would be ) but you should be smashing high in no time :)

Sometimes you need to make generic killers first to be able to be creative killers.

Tell Pwn that. or STW. Pretty much the reverse of generic to creative.
 
And anyone's advice is off at times.
 
Back on topic, and I apologize Tri, you just seemed to be spamming advice with *add a wedge durr*.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Have you seen the first page of Pwn's showcase?  A generic poker, a generic popup, and a generic 36HS. The best way to learn the ropes is to try deigns already done before and compare them to see what you can do better. Reverse engineering and trying to make the original even better is a very interesting challenge in itself.

Ok thanks for the advice I will try and make a more weight efficient version. yes belt drives are the only custom part although I do have a version that has blades that hit like 70000 points worth of damage ( not really that fun though) thanks for the I have taken the Ballasts off. By no time I might be a pretty decent builder  :bigsmile:

Fine, STW only then. You can't deny that, he's becoming a little more generic...
Generic == Win, if my bots are getting more generic, it means they are winning more often.  Personally I did some cloning myself.  Between Pyrotechnic remake and Mammoth downsized, the only good bot that I will claim originality would be my SnS.  While I do have a few more original designs, they just doesn't pack the same kinds of kill power.

And if you can build exactly like Naryar, then you ARE Naryar, or at least just a different screen name isn't enough to prove you are not.
