If you need to reduce the weight in order to upgrade something, then making the chassis somewhat smaller and maybe using a hollow disc instead of a solid one would be your best options. Also, for MW IRLs you don't particularly need a PERM 132. Keep it if you want, but it's a bit overkill. I've found that often times a PERM 80 works well enough with these kinds of robots.

Get rid of those damn teeth and replace them with 4 medium beaters. Use the rest of the weight on stuff.

I would try to move the wheels in more.

There's really no room, any further in and the drive motors (mags) won't go because of the perm.

Rebuilding is key.
Most the time I end up re-doing the chassis on my IRL bots at least 3 times before I get the chassis right

But I like the way they stick out...

im liking that weapon setup

Badnik96 · « **Reply #348 on:** September 22, 2012, 04:10:27 PM »

Thanks, I thought it was pretty cool myself.

Weapon setup is cool indeed, but I would fix the tyres like 090901 said.

NFX · « **Reply #350 on:** September 22, 2012, 04:46:04 PM »

Weapon setup is good. Wheels sticking out isn't something I'm a fan of, but I suppose it could work somehow. Might be better with a smaller chassis and external wheelguards in the same place.

...

Am I the only one who likes the wheels where they are?

New robot

Electric Ray, 240.9, Tite 3, Mag/mini drive, rear dominator spike. Basically a mini Manta, but the TDD saw is a little OP. Still gets owned by HS.

Might replace TimberWolf in the next LDAI installment.

That looks really nice !

I LOVE that and want it...

That thing is adorable and I want to keep a colony of them in a small lexan box in my garage.

I'd go for a slightly higher resolution skin, 512x512 might give it a cleaner look overall, rather than the lossy pixeled look it's got at the moment. Exposed Piglet isn't that appealing either, though I'm not sure how a Flipper Segment housing would look.

I don't think I have weight for a flipper segment thingy, and I'll give it a higher-res skin tomorrow.

I like Timberwolf. Just put it in a new team.
