It's mostly the wedges.

Also the fact that ingame gutrippers are vastly superior to IRL gutrippers.

What's the best way to make an IRL wedge that isn't useless?

Make it so it's wholly inside the bot ? like a metal hinge/skirt hinge which is inside the bot and a wedge (preferably a large one like an emergency wedge or a small wedge) which is partly outside the bot.

Knocked this thing together in 10 minutes to try to give the new guy an example of a MW flipper. Titanium 1. Anything I can improve? I haven't played 2.1 in years so I might've missed something obvious

12 ants btw

If those are NPCFs then that bot's going to be crazy fast.
I personally like stronger flipper skirts on my bots.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Standards, should probably switch to fast L/R and use hypnos

I would rebuild with a smaller chassis (with no slope) and other minor improvements but SM gave the guy a better bot than I could to work off of so to be honest I can't really be arsed haha

Most likely too fast and would do better with some armor, but ultrafast flippers are kinda nice as well because they OOTA stuff more easily.

So DSL 2.2 is a thing. Here's some old stuff I never put on here

TTF116 (cookie to whoever can figure out the skin and the name)
Drive system is of course far from the most efficient, but it's cool, nimble and super stable which helps a TON with head-on collisions. I should try this in IF where battery power is less of a premium, bursts are more powerful and stability is more important. Alu1, 4 of the long black batteries and an ant, 798.?kg. I don't think it'll last 3 minutes but it's a powerful popup, it wins or loses in the first minute anyway. Wedges are decent, need to test vs NAR AI bots tho.

Probs gonna cook up some more stuff, got a challenge w/ Boby and all I've made so far is popups which is kinda lame. I'll put my ToT bot on here when I can get teh DL link off RedAce, since I lost it when I wiped my laptop

Looking pretty good, but how the drive is done scares me.  And I think it's based off an F1 car or something.

And I know this is a bit off topic, but ya might wanna put the thread up for your challenge (unless it's waiting for approval at this point).

Waiting for approval bro. It's got a pretty good turning speed, and it has 6 wheels, so them being exposed isn't a huge experience (in that testing I've done).

Go Play Ironforge (what I entered to ToT)
Named so because at the time of building I really was fed up with DSL, there just seemed to be a ton of filler compared to IF, I didn't like the battery system and everything was slower than IF. I think I kinda prefer DSL's battery system now tho. I built this so long ago I can't remember the armour, probably alu1 or pl3. Built from a modified 115 chassis IIRC, which isn't so great because the wedges aren't wide enough to beat U-shaped bots.

No, it relies on its good wedges and 3wd stability. Works pretty well.
