Probably been done already... Aerodynamics suck, but it beat Emergency?

Looks sexy, that much is true.  Do you mean you beat Stock or DSL Emergency?

By the by, you can't have more than one thread per Showcase subsection - what you want to do is rename this topic to something generic like "Brian's Awesome DSL Robots"  and show off all future DSL-based robots in this thread.

Noted, thanks. Beat the Emergency in 2.1. As long as it is in a cage, it beats around until the tail rotor separates, then it just becomes an upside down spinning blade. Had to do a lot of experimenting. Its fun to watch, but not much skill required for AI and more overall luck of the blow than anything. Surprisingly I have yet to see a main rotor or the tail boom get separated.

Doesn't fly intentionally, more out of incidence from centrifugal force/game physics. Its an out of control spinner. I just lucked out and snapped that at the right time.

Interesting.  You should post it in  the "Battleshots" thread (stickied in this forum section), it's worthy of more attention.

Cool idea - I don't think it'd really be able to enter tournaments due to it's nature but it's nice. Perhaps experiment with the Hovercraft engine you can find  in cheatbot2 :)
