6 ants (

even 4 or 5) are enough on this.

It slightly remembers me of HnM v1 with the teeth on the back... but they're pretty much useless for now.

I don't mind about crawlers, but when Viper and Somebody teamed up for TTT...

Just Dammit.

ok this is a CONCEPT bot. i dont want comments on how its made. i just want to know if anything can come out of it and ideas to improve it.

I have no idea where you're going from here, but your panels are blocking the weapon systems.

70 CUDA · « **Reply #184 on:** November 15, 2010, 05:28:23 AM »

the idea is a front AND back drum bot that while invertable still hits the

out of whatever poor bots on top. the panels were just there to see how it drove. and it dose that great. NO gyro but to get it any further along is going to a few days. as i said im not sure how to make it a viable tourny entry

Ver 2 has technos dont worry Naryar. any ideas on the weapon setup. the one i just made is a long thin one instead of the narrow frame like the one posted.

This bot reminds me of my prototype treadmill robot, except that yourse has further spaced apart perms. I would've made it with a wedge at both sides, and perms in the middle, so the robots drive up onto the drum and get absoltely totalled, but then it would nearly be a carbon fiber copy of my bot.

this is Efficiency Cubed. the last of my drums for awhile as im now working on tourny bots and such. its a IRL bot that still wins 95% when AIed against the Nar AI extra teams. not by KOs but points. the rear plate that the DSL bar is on is do to the fact i cant put it on the extender where i want it.

70 CUDA · « **Reply #189 on:** November 15, 2010, 04:34:47 PM »

DP. this is my frist ram. so let me know what you think. i used the tornado spikes cause no one else dose. NPC fast 3 ants 1mm ti.

Lighten the extender work.

MassimoV · « **Reply #191 on:** November 15, 2010, 05:15:19 PM »

The Sir K drills don't do anything.

The Ounce · « **Reply #192 on:** November 15, 2010, 05:44:34 PM »

I would disagree: They protect the motors and deal damage in addition to the drums.

MassimoV · « **Reply #193 on:** November 15, 2010, 06:16:42 PM »

I see your point. Listen to Ounce not me.
How much damage do they deal sticking out to the side like that? Also, would there be a lighter alternative?

70 CUDA · « **Reply #194 on:** November 15, 2010, 06:26:14 PM »

they do ok but i am messing with that right now. ill let you know when i get id done.

Somebody · « **Reply #195 on:** November 15, 2010, 08:01:32 PM »

Tornado Spikes weigh too much for their size IMO.

70 CUDA · « **Reply #196 on:** November 15, 2010, 10:14:45 PM »

agreed . however you all know i like using the stuff you all dont. lol im working on a new bot now that i think uses them in an interesting way.

:O I have tried many, many times to make a design like this effective, and it always fails. In theory it should be good--able to gut-rip bots and also hit wedges that get underneath it--but in practice you can't get enough weapon weight plus top and bottom armor (necessary for popup defense). Maybe if you made it a SHW it could be good.

70 CUDA · « **Reply #198 on:** November 15, 2010, 11:46:57 PM »

ya i got to the same point. i might make a SHW but i GOTTA get good at making other types of bots. drums are great but to many people LOVE there weakness (VS) to put to many in to tourneys.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #199 on:** November 15, 2010, 11:51:36 PM »

Drums can beat VS if they are fast enough. VS's tend not to do well against fast bots that can tip them over.
