I know overkill wedge is a cheatbot part but it is effective. SHW bot. Wedge-flamethrower bot :D

If Nyx2 and Gray matter had baby,it will be a this robot

Do like. Great work getting the wheelguards to match the wheels, it's small details like that that really make an IRL bot. Overkill Wedge is a standard component, I think, so you're fine there. If you dropped a couple of ants, one of the air tanks, and dropped the armour, I'm pretty certain you could get it down to HW. Seriously, where's all the weight gone?

12yearOldPwner · « **Reply #42 on:** May 18, 2012, 04:46:57 AM »

overkillwedge is very heavy and those npcf's are also.
dropping some components might work.

I think downgrading at least 2 npcf`s would be ok.. on the other hand those are just 10 kg but if it helps to get in to the HW devision it wont hurt.

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #44 on:** May 18, 2012, 06:11:05 AM »

Very cool, and that's not too slow at all!

12yearOldPwner · « **Reply #45 on:** May 18, 2012, 06:15:29 AM »

Overkill wedge is 200kg, IIRC, but even so, I've got the components adding up to 641kg. That leaves you 159kg for armour, which should be plenty. Even Plastic 3 will be fine on this, I reckon.

oh CR**!!

thats why.. I used the 400 KG one not the 200

Naryar · « **Reply #48 on:** May 18, 2012, 06:44:48 AM »

Yes the standard overkill wedge is 200. Well I thought it was 400.

ok I tried to simulate mecanum wheels such as alcoholic stepfather's.

.
takes practice to perfect the controlling and is very hard to control

MassimoV · « **Reply #50 on:** May 19, 2012, 09:36:01 AM »

Good idea. So can you make it work?

i just tried this and the movement is nearly uncontrollable, it may be possible to get them to work but tbh it's not worth it IMHO

Naryar · « **Reply #52 on:** May 19, 2012, 06:08:18 PM »

Interesting design.

Try 2 standard drive wheels and 2 wheels facing the ground.

12yearOldPwner · « **Reply #53 on:** May 20, 2012, 02:48:12 AM »

no bots for this moment.

Didnt realize I can post and browse the GTM site using a mobile phone :]

12yearOldPwner · « **Reply #54 on:** May 20, 2012, 07:58:53 AM »

Warmonger, an IRL VS

7 ants twmr drive & cleprechaun blade. I had no choice for the disc. and a 40kg ballast at the back to keep the back portion down.
395.. KG

Badnik96 · « **Reply #55 on:** May 20, 2012, 07:59:39 AM »

Nice. I have worries on that disc's reach though...

ty4er · « **Reply #56 on:** May 20, 2012, 08:02:41 AM »

nice, if you use an angled flipper segment you can get the disk lower to the ground and get more reach. You can also put a 40cm skirt on the middle ap of the flipper segment infront of the drive to help stop tipping (provided the rule of 7 doesn't screw stuff up)

How's self-righting?

Pwnator · « **Reply #57 on:** May 20, 2012, 08:27:43 AM »

That's not IRL. No such bot exists IRL that could be so cute. The builder would have died of adorableness.

NFX · « **Reply #58 on:** May 20, 2012, 08:29:56 AM »

Looking quite good. Can we get a rear 3/4 view at all? It's quite tricky to work out how it looks from that angle. If you lost the ballast at the back, and perhaps added some Cutting Teeth or something on those side panels, so they'd look like claws, that might help with the tipping problem slightly.

12yearOldPwner · « **Reply #59 on:** May 20, 2012, 08:55:11 AM »

I changed some things like the weapon tooth and a large DSL disc. I personally don't really like the previous one.

sorry for calling it "IRL".
