how do you make a robot in dsl that will act like the master or like stinger
-
I did it on a prototype little cube target robot for clash cubes, fast drive good traction and a weapon on an axle mount
-
Stinger... which variation? there was a torque reaction Stinger, a sawblade Stinger, and an axe Stinger as far as i know.
-
im pretty sure he was referring to the pendulum mace stinger (series 4+)
-
so... torque reaction?
-
Stinger never had anything other than a heavy mace weapon. you are thinking of The Master.
-
no, it was called Stinger. it had what looked like shinies only with two tires and a razor tip on a titanium extender for a weapon. another variant had what looked like a pizza cutter, and the last one looked like the first only on a burst motor.
-
series 3 - stinger had a hardware store style black saw blade on the pendulum but the robot didn't cause much damage and lacked the force behind its pendulum
series 4 onwards - had a spiked mace on the pendulum and had a heap more force
-
hmm. could you possibly send me a pic/vid link of it? i'll send a vid link of what i saw.
here it is.

it's the shiny torque reaction bot that gets caught in Dead Metal's grasp.
-
Nope, Stinger had one weapon. The Master looked almost exactly the same, and had more than one interchangeable weapon.

I couldn't find any images if the master with his other weapons, But I assure you, You. Are. Wrong.

i must be really bad at explaining things, 'cause that's the same exact one i'm talking about. the shiny-ish gray torque reaction bot with what to me looks like a razor tip for a weapon. when i meant a shiny with two tires i meant two motorcycle tire-looking tires on a shiny instead of the regular tire shinies have, not two shinies back to back.

this is highlights from season 3 of robot wars
battle 1 - Mace 2 vs Stinger (with a saw blade)
-
THAT'S THE ONE I'M TALKING ABOUT.
-
You just need to make a 2WD crawler. Just use something else than wheels.
My Magmatic Revolution (first page of my DSL showcase) can work like a torque reaction hammer and that's exactly why i did destroyed Pon2n with it.
-
ah, so i'ts called a "torque reaction hammer", not just a "torque reaction".
-
Also included are toe crusher and sumpthing

toushe

Well, if you want to make something like stinger, heres what i do (put as best as i can)
if you have a small box chassis, and put 2 small motors by the sides, and connect 2 big wheels 2 them for a start.
Then put a baseplate at the front and back.
On the front put your weapons.
At the back, if you modify something like a 20cm extender to weigh about 100kg, and connect 2 on a t connecter, when testing, the bot should saw back wards and forwards.
2 other ways are using servos or instead of wheels use dsl shell parts.

OMG i forgot one of my most favorite robots Overkill was a torque reaction/ cutter hybrid (it could fire the sword without moving but didn't have as much force from memory)
