Title: Ring Spinners?
Post by: Ra2Winner999 on July 04, 2018, 11:17:01 AM
How are invertible ring spinners irl?

1. There is no ring component.

2. The discs would unrealistically phase through the drive motors.

Due to the limitations of Ra2, we often allow for the spokes on discs to intersect with motors etc. However, maybe with some custom components along the line we can expect a ring component.

Talking about ring spinners, what is the inside mechanism of ring spinners IRL? I mean, do they use two sets of wheels so they can be invertible, how do their weapon run, and how are their wheels powered?

some use two sets of wheels but i'm pretty sure a lot use one but have just a ring on the exterior of the bot and use a mechanism like this
