More concepts. Been trying to think of real weapon types that maybe don't get seen a lot in IRL tournaments.
(Image removed from quote.)
LW Claw.

(Image removed from quote.)
HW Shell.

Not massively fond of the shell, seems dull. Anybody think of any other real weapon systems I could try?

Nice bots, for IRL designs,
Try some of these:

Some of these look quite nice actually

That claw looks like an Angry Birds character. You should use that to name it.

that claw looks sooo derpy

The shell looks cool. Needs more weapons to look the part but I like it.

It looks terrifying but cute at the same time, and the motor supports look awesome :3

Tis a mean lookin drill you have there.

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #747 on:** May 18, 2014, 01:23:23 PM »

Call it TBM.

Naryar · « **Reply #748 on:** May 18, 2014, 02:01:21 PM »

Nah. Call it Giga Drill Breaker.

Just a few little projects, nothing too gud in my opinion.

I tried a standard MW drum thinking about Trials. Not sure if happy with result. Plastic 3.

A tiny LW drill I was thinking about entering for Father and Son

And, something the Skype guys have seen, a Shell/Side Hammer hybrid. Shell hybrids are pretty tough so I thought it'd be fun to try. It went weirdly. Would be legal for RIP4 as a 617kg Double Hybrid.

Drum's pretty average, Drill is cute as a button, and the shell hybrid is really cool but it needs wedges. Not sure how you'll get those on though.

Naryar · « **Reply #751 on:** June 03, 2014, 10:46:26 AM »

shell hybrid is very nice and very original, drum is... meh and the drill I like.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #752 on:** June 03, 2014, 11:12:12 AM »

shell hybrid is badass

drum is generic

Pyrexia 2.1
Same bot, I just made a series of fairly small changes that have drastically effected performance.

Longer side skirts, the motor is much nearer the chassis. Stability is massively improved from the bot seen in Centripetal Force... thank goodness...

Something quacky this way comes.

Gonna be reskinned by Gaz to be 10x duckier.

RedAce · « **Reply #759 on:** June 17, 2014, 03:08:57 PM »

Does the blade touch the ground when it starts? Other than that, it looks okay, yet I can allow the bot if you planned on entering it in my tourney.
