piglets for drive argh

advice one, less overly big chassis

advice two, never use piglets for drive only for weapon motors

advice three, fill your chassis better, get them so they're tight (yes i know where this will end up) and so most of the chassis's interior is filled with components instead of empty space.

fix these and then come back with new bots, i'll teach you more things

Well, you've improved chassis space and batteries(though you need one more for the other motor), but there's still a few problems:
Balance castors shouldn't be placed at the front of the robot, that makes it more vulnerable to wedges.
You have a LOT of weight left(over 100 kgs for a lightweight, 15-ish kgs for an antweight, 65-ish for a beetleweight).
I'd suggest more armor, like titanium, and better drive, NPC-T64 Fasts and Hypnos.
Use blue control boards, they're more lightweight.
Nonetheless, I personally like the theme behind this bot. ;)

Fit another ant batrery in and you have an antweight.
Upgrade the armour and you could get a beetleweight or lightweight.

also tommy, dont use npc fasts for a lw.

unless it is a joke robot.

Adammite, I'd suggest you'd actually look at other people's showcases to have a little insight on what makes a good bot, but everybody has a starting point and the more you have to improve, the more you will learn  :smile:

That looks suspicously similar to nerf cubes Bitee. But anyways, put some bigger motors for the discs, and for every spin motor use 1 ant. Also, use a non replica weapon as hypno discs do not allow for high weapon amounts.

Sorry, just thought thats what Naryar would do.
As for little dragon, all you need to do now is just make it invertable, or at least lower to the ground.

Just a couple of things for now - you could attach that piglet onto a multi extender a shrink the chassis a lot, the axle mounts are fairly useless and this bot only really needs 3 ants. You could also reduce the height of the chassis.
It's also a good idea to build to the weight limit so you can have lots of weapons - you could easily shrink this down to a MW and add even more weapons :)
