Thought I'd try something a bit different than my usual on an IRL design today.

Placeholder skin is placeholder.

Skinned it. Meet Aque.

It looks pretty cool. I'm reminded of Tsunami with the way It's built and skinned.

I think the design is pretty boring TBH. Flipper, been there done that, herp, derp, anything new ?

The skin has it's charm though. I also love that gif effect you have made, will be useful for complex bots.

Yeah I thought that gif would help somewhat rather than posting a load more pictures. It was really easy to make too, just basically recorded me rotating it with Gyazo Gif.

Generally good, I don't think I like that disc though.

Pretty cool. Nice skin aswell.

It would look better with wheelguards.

For an antweight and a beetleweight that can't be BFE'd, they are pretty cool.

I don't get why people think they need BFE for AWs and BWs, lol.

I definitely do. I'm not talking for others but I cannot manage weight for my life. Looks good nonetheless.

It's a matter of getting the chassis as tight to the components as possible. That BW is the same chassis I use on LW's because it's absolutely airtight. 3 ants, 2 ME's and a blue CB.

Wanted to do something original and IRL that could take out beater rammers (with any luck).

Looks good. I think beater rammers would have a tough time with it. Have you tested it against a rammer yet?

Looks pretty good, perhaps you could add an overhead hammer?

cephalopod · « **Reply #779 on:** July 26, 2014, 06:47:39 AM »

I'd like to but it'd probably mean a total rebuild and the loss of the srimech, and hammers aren't the best at self-righting really, plus it'd be tough on weight - I'm using small JX's for everything in there, so it's right up at weight limit.
