I love flippers, It's great to see that opponents fly few meters.:)

Stock - VS. IMO is the toughest type to build. Which is why I like 'em. :D

DSL - Poker. Probably one of the least used designs. Haven't had much luck in building decent ones, though. Which is also why I like 'em. XD

HS - Stock, tough im trying to go for other desings, but those havent turned out too well.

HS and Sheck Spinner - DSL, same as for stock, Im trying to go for other desings as well.

Let's see...


DSL- HS/VS/poker hybrid. Quite destructive.

Stock- Poker. I'm sure some of you remember my old bot named Spiker 3.

I dunno about stock, but in DSL I love VSes like Shinigami, as most people have probably noticed. Entertaining and generally destructive. In fact, I made a HS version (SHW) of it today which is awesome...

I just LOVE HS in DSL because with 2 Piglet motors spinning razor tipped tribars you can have your points go up to OVER 9000!

I like watching Antweight (American ones) robots shred each other.

...RA2? Oh! Then Crawlers, VS and SNS.

As every one knows, popups are my forte. But I'm good at building jugglers and VS.

Post by: trumpetguy on August 28, 2009, 01:53:21 PM

Basically just generally any bot that uses spin motors.

Stock - HS, even though they're generic, there seems to be a variety of ways to build
them.

DSL - SnS, easily, although VSs aren't far behind.

I love watching DSL SnS Destructinating.

Gut rippers obviously, with a preference for true popups... excepted in lightweights where i favor the rammer builds.

It must also be said that EVERY SINGLE LW HS IN NAR AI can beat Bane.

Bane II yes, but can they beat Bane III.....

Post by: RedSawn on August 31, 2009, 08:23:13 PM

I liked watching Flippers in real life... though because of the damage=points nature of the game it has to be popups.

Also... how the heck do you make a stable hammer bot?

Title: Favourite Type Of Bot
Post by: TriTon on August 31, 2009, 08:44:51 PM

Stock - Popup

DSL - VS

I like flippers that do lots of damage(flipping spike strips)

Title: Re: Favourite Type Of Bot
Post by: cephalopod on November 17, 2014, 07:15:19 AM

So popups then?

Title: Re: Favourite Type Of Bot
Post by: Natster-104 on November 17, 2014, 01:06:55 PM

IRL- Concussion weapons, flippers at live events aren't as fun as seeing your opponent bashed to bits

That's why Thor is my favourite HW and why I build many axes in RA2

Title: Re: Favourite Type Of Bot
Post by: Dexterhunter on November 17, 2014, 11:50:16 PM

Vertical spinners are always fun.

Title: Re: Favourite Type Of Bot
Post by: Scrapyard24c on January 23, 2015, 02:02:10 PM

In DSL I'm probably best with making drum spinners but as for IRL robots I prefer flippers.
