Apart from the fact you could've edited that bot into your first post rather than double posting, and to crop the white space out of your image there's not really a lot I can help with with regards to the bot -  very nice for a first showcased bot.
All I would say it you could potentially use smaller wheels if you wanted (less of a target), try using multiextenders instead of baseplate anchors as they're smaller and weigh less and use the blue control board as it's just that little bit lighter.

Hmm... Your name seems familiar. May I ask, where are you from?

I've moved to other forums. Under a different name. This is where it all began.

Scout.

Anyways, yea, good bot. The hypno teeth kinda block out the beaters from hitting their mark from what I can see (Unless you put them there as a kind of backup weapon should the beaters fall off), and pretty much whatever Craaig told ya.

Oh, an extra ant in there would help too. At least one ant bat. per spin motor.

I think the beaters look quite good acting as a sort of disc support, although they do add a lot of weight to the weapon, which'll make it less effective when spinning.

Very solid first effort though.

There's a third ant under the right astroflight.

Great first bot, but are the wheels too big? I feel like they may be angling the disc into the ground.
Oh I'll be doing some banging.......

What? No control board uses any batteries, despite their descriptions. The blue one is simply recommended for it's weight.

Gotta say that bot looks really cool.  The red skin + hypno teeth combo is nice, as is the way you put the bloody drips edge over the saw teeth edge to make those little triangles.  The reinforced disc design too.

Sure, you could save a couple kgs by using a multiextender and a blue control board, but you should only bother with that if you can actually do something with the extra weight.  You would have... 3.9 kgs, it looks like.  Is that enough to upgrade the armor?

Don't wanna be a credit-stealer, but the disk was partially my design. :3
