Be0t was very good at driving this style of bot.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.
Hi all,I'm just stopping by to say "Hi".Does anyone remember me? I used to be an admin on the official Robot Arena forum as well as the official tournament host. It's been exactly 12 since I registered on here.For those that play RA2 still: If I can find it, I believe I have a USB stick somewhere with all of my old bots on, after all these years, does anyone want me to upload them and make them available for everyone? I spent a lot of time back in the day on many of them. Jex, E-Rupt and Hades might be my most well known, as well as Death Port 2. If people are interested I will dig it out tomorrow, tidy it up a bit and then will upload my entire collection.EDIT:I have uploaded my entire bot collection, here is the link to download it:https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=284I have a write-up on each bot I am in the process of finishing and will post it here.

any stories/history behind the jex and e-rupt series?
Quote from: Virus Bomb on September 30, 2016, 07:41:14 PMany stories/history behind the jex and e-rupt series?Yeah. I was in the process of writing them up. I shall continue tonight. E-Rupt was basically an accidental dicovery, I kept that one a secret for a while and just posted a video of what he could do and challenged people to work out how it was achieved. I believe it was Clickbeetle that got it right in the end after quite a while. Frankly I was opposed to people using a bot like that in tournaments. I do remember having some fun matches using E-Rupt against C2's flipper bots, often the matches ended with 1 flip.

I still remember so much about these bots. I spent so much time building them back in the day.
You can use the quake burst motors, but adding DDTs with sideways 60 cm. extenders and angle connectors will provide you with the rupt glitch.
ALERT- Another WS coming up...
I'm fine with hugging reier
