May be a odd question, but whatever. I was curious as to what other HW popups are hitting for as far as points go in a single hit. My average is around 2000 and my highest was about 3900. I'm using my popup Serious Cat. If I fire my DDTs at just the right time, I can 1 hit kill any non SHW in the Starcore v3 pack that I've managed to get under. So, about 90% of them so far. Don't think I've tried them all though. Is that good for a HW popup? The points I mean. Thanks.

Show a picture of your bot and we can tell you if it's good.

Ok, here it is.

799.3 kg, DSA, 4 DDT's, 4 razor tips per DDT, 4W HPZ drive, burst wedges, wheels axle loaded for a very tight fit. And 3 Blacks, using stacking.

Note- as you may be able to see my wheels are a pixle off center, causing my bot to drift. I have sense fixed this.
EDIT- also, since these pics were taken I have turned my green burst motors upside down.

Well, they all need to hit at the same time. You have them too spread out do do that. If basically the angle at which you hit them, how far away the other bot is, blah blah blah. Nothing wrong with your bot in terms of weaponry. If you want feedback on the bot itself make a showcase.

He already has a showcase.

Make sure all DDTs are extended to the outter arc, than align them for the best hit. Also I don't think 4 DDTs for weapons on a popup is really neccesary but its your bot.
