I love the look fo that bot.
You know, if total carnage gets voted in to the tourneys, I'd love it if you entered that

I love drums, and that is awesome :D

Drive problems, try removing the typhoon spikes and use some angled flipper segs to get the drive straight... but then a popup may eat them alive :/

Oh, and maybe use plows instead of the giant ramplates. They suck, apparently.

well i have just been toying with it and i think i can get the wight for technos if i can get them on there somehow. idk might have an update in a bit.

well the drive is MUCH better but i dont think i can enter it as is. a few more ideas are needed.

Remove those poly skirts in the front and add bottom armor.

Angled drive = fail

WTF with the drive?

MassimoV · « **Reply #307 on:** December 10, 2010, 09:30:40 PM »

That's a wacky conception :D. Does it drive well?

NOW its a competitive bot. however the perm132s are weaker then perm 80s as far as torque. i have no idea why but this thing is fun to watch.

looks unrealistic

RAZORS !!!!1

Looks good, though I believe your extender work can be made better.

Yeah, I agree.
Sorry cuda but those razorz nearest the inside of the motor pass through it.

ya i know. by 1/2 inch they are to long. however. the collision mesh clears if its a the right spot. i guess i will put large beaters there then lol

1mm Plastic sounds a bit suspect to me. Maybe drop to Minis, upgrade the armour, and swap the Typhoon spike for something a little more damaging, maybe a Large Beater Bar.

70 CUDA · « **Reply #317 on:** December 17, 2010, 11:23:09 AM »

revised ver. what do you think. thanks to the LW teeth i could only upgrade to 1mm ti but the drive falls off before the bot get destoryed most of the time.

Scorpion · « **Reply #318 on:** December 17, 2010, 11:28:48 AM »

I would still drop the wheels down to something lighter.
And if the drive falling off is a problem, you should try using a skirt hinge and perhaps some angled poly/aluminium sheets to give them a bit more protection.

The Ounce · « **Reply #319 on:** December 17, 2010, 04:55:02 PM »

The best solution to the drive problem is to use regular TWM3s; not only will the motors have more hit points but your bot will have a larger turning circle, making it harder to flank.
