You know what i would love to see? A dual axle Piglet! I have so may AW, BW, and LW ideas that don't work because the 2 piglets are too far apart, or too heavy. I think that this would be a good component adea for the 2.1 patch. :wink:

if its too heavy just use anti ballast

Read the post ANTWEIGHT, BEETLEWEIGHT, AND LIGHTWEIGHT robots. Also, like I said, two of them are too far apart. Besides, using anti-ballast in battle doesn't work. The game hates it.

Maybe not a dual-axle Piglet, but I might be able to make an outrunner brushless motor (such as an AXI) with attach points on each side. We'll see how practical it ends up being.

it might be a good idea to make the attachpoints inter-turnable unlike the perm motors which have axes that turn in one direction.

i found out that antiballasts only work on bots with more than 500 pounds of weight and antiballasts only can go to 100 or they freak out the bot in battle so other words say my bot is 501 pounds put on a 100 pound ballast mand it is 401 and it doesent freak out in battle put on 2 and the wieght would be 301 (dur) but now i will wobble but still work put on 3 of them and the game either crashes or the bot freaks out...
