Title: Fyshcase: DSL Fumbling
Post by: Foyfysh on June 07, 2014, 08:40:32 PM: Been lurking for a while trying to gather information on how to make a robot look good.
If you expect effective, deadly robots to be posted here then you will be disappointed.

I couldn't fit the snapper in the chassis. Much to full in there.
The self-righting mechanism includes a "That Darn Dustpan" motor bracket for looks.

Surprisingly, the Bob Flap wedge is more effective than I thought.

Ethanol

Experimented with out of chassis frame drive. Ended up with something Vettel would have a hard time looking at.

Post by: Kossokei on June 08, 2014, 11:30:11 AM: I'm impressed.

You take Cheatbot parts and just run with them, I don't see many people use them in such a way.

Post by: Foyfysh on June 08, 2014, 05:50:03 PM: Found out about Cruiserweights. Started experimenting with Turrets.

594.3 kg

Decently gets the job done. Turret is rotatable using a low power servo.
To my surprise it was able to turn the whole thing with ease.

Post by: Naryar on June 09, 2014, 11:37:08 AM: Should I move that to custom components showcase because it uses lots of DSL2 cheat parts ? I'm not even sure.

It's still very nice and original. Good to see a newbie come with something new.

Cheatbot2 =/= custom parts

I'm really liking Cryospin, shame you don't have enough weight to stick another disc on top of the turret so it's fully enclosed.

Post by: Foyfysh on June 09, 2014, 06:21:15 PM: Heard this forum liked cambered wheels. More experimenting.

Crushing design implemented. More spikes added. Reticulated splines.

Title: Re: Fyshcase: DSL Fumbling
Post by: Merrick on June 09, 2014, 06:34:04 PM: Continue doing what you are doing.

However, I will say that the weapon is passing through the motor on that one, which is frowned upon.
