Hi, everyone! After the "success" of my stock showcase I decided to make one for DSL.

This first bot, to get it as good as I could, I had to rebuild it 5 times. I'm going to enter it into the tournament "Tag Team Tornado".
Here it is:

It is fully A.I-ed (thanks to G.K and his patience

).
Rate and comment as usual!

Remind me how heavy the axles are.

Only needs 2 ants, substitute the 2 axles for a wedge, and put on grippier wheels (Pokers are all about speed)

Grannies have very good grip. That said, change to vlads or technos, they are grippier.

Get 2WD and vlads/hypnos. You are just wasting weight with 4WD.

Also lighten your extender work. Omni connectors fail.

Alumilium sucks,Change to plastic 5 or 10.Titm 5 might do the trick.
Swap the T connctor for a sideways extender.
Change from steel or titanium exdenders for alumilium exdeders then add more weapons.

Like 4 hammers isn't enough av?
Anyway what IS the armor, it could be aluminum or it could be the texture, please specify.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #8 on:** March 25, 2010, 03:09:26 PM »

Sorry, I forgot to say. The armour is 5mm aluminium.

russian roulette · « **Reply #9 on:** March 25, 2010, 03:52:25 PM »

That is fine then. Aluminum 5 and steel 5 are the only good ones in their groups Plastic and Tite 5 suck(1, 3 , and 10 don't).

Plastic 5 is better then Tite 3.

Alu chassis armor fails whatever the weight is.

You still have 10 kg to work with - it might be worth it to use just a hex plate directly on the piston, then use 2 60kg hammers.

Here is my new HammerHead:

Anything else that I can improve?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #14 on:** March 27, 2010, 01:52:34 PM »

What's the armor? if its Aluminum 3 (which it probably is) upgrade it to Titanium 3. You have the weight.

090901 · « **Reply #15 on:** March 27, 2010, 05:30:29 PM »

Plastic 5 is better then tite 3.

I have 2 new bots for you all. I need help on deciding which one I should enter in Tag Team Tornado.

Exposed Flamethrowers aren't good:
