My first attempt at an Inertia powered flipper. 4 NPC fasts, 4 ants, and those wedges are metal hinges.

Ahh, who cares? Here's the bot anyway.



2 NPC fasts, 2 ants, and a 120cm long 40cm wide inertia powered flipper. OOTA's most bots within 10 seconds.

Now fight it against a good wedge...

But the real challenge is making it good AI-ed.

A good wedge like?

Also, i'm sure Rammer would work just fine for this...

Say that to click :P

Edit: Wait. Since there's just only 1 flipper it might work as a LW.

UHW pure flippers are very rare, so here you go.

2 E Tek drive, and more batteries than I care to count. Steel 10. Thinking about making it a SHW, but then again... Can't be arsed.

Done! With a few batteries removed, no wasted weight, 2 metal hinge wedges intead of an overkill of 5, poly instead of steel and Plastic 3 armour, Line Of Fire is finally a SHW. Also, a look inside. Turns out Fail Batteries aren't that much of a fail in NAR AI.


Ya see, SHW. Be scared. Also, the On screen keyboard thing is there because some of the buttons on my computer don't work, like the numbers five and six, and the arrow keys. DAMN ME SPILLING 7UP ALL OVER MY KEYBOARD  :FFFUUU

This is why i couldn't be arsed counting the batteries. There's like, 20 or somethin'.

Batteries is an exact science. Any serious builder knows exactly how many batteries there were, usually because they did the math to find out how much amp they needed.

Other than that, cool flipper. Poly skirts seem really weak for SHW tho.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Might replae it with 100% ants and then replace the poly's with alu's. Until then, i'm limited to my laptop, which has none of my awesome bots.

Actually, that's the same problem that plagued your Invertigo. It should at least have tite sheets for the flippers, but steel flippers are the recommended ones. Don't spam it with ants. That's a waste of weight. Calculate it carefully and use the right amount of Odyssey batts for that. You'll surely have lost of weight left over.
