i mean i upload the picture of it.
 
And Here's It!
 

(It doesn't Trinity)
Name:TTMK2

Oh ok. Anyways, you can shrink the chassis, use 2 ants, replace the baseplate anchors with me's, and IDK why it doesn't trinity?

[Reier]

There are plenty of people who really know what they are talking about. :D

DON'T WORRY, I AM HERE.

It's probably not trinitieinning because the weapons aren't long enough (centrifical force yadda yadda), but you know, it really doesn't need to. That's not a trinity design - if you wanna go full trinity, you'd probably just make the extenders go straight out from the pistons and make all the weapons face one way, kinda like this:

(Note though, I'm pretty sure you only need the smallest piston to trinity, saves weight)
The way you've got your weapons right now is more rammer-style than SnS (SitNSpinner).

Good job on the drive (great motors and wheels, those things are grippy, but it could use 3 or 4 motors for insane speed) and weapon placement, just pretty much rotate the weapon "bar" 90 degrees is all. Or you could go with hammers if you wanna spice things up.


Some specific tips for this bot:

Nice basic design. But on GTM, that chassis is like the Titanic. My best SnS (it's not a trinity, but who cares) uses about a 2x2 chassis on the grid. I attached everything I could externally and armored it up. Not saying you need a chassis so small, but the more weight you save on that, the more you could give to weapons or drive, etc. It only had 240KG of weapons but insane drive and the axles themselves almost trinitied.
But enough about that, this thing could be improved a lot if you took that advice. But all in all, it's not bad for one of your first bots. You might just try messing around with a minute chassis with everything possible external, then protecting the pistons' microscopic HP with some skirts or something. Might try jamming more Eteks on too. Or ditch the trinity approach and just do a basic or TOFU style SnS.

By the way, ant batts are the best and always try to use Multiextenders (MEs) instead of baseplate anchors.
Some of the best wheels are vlad, hypnos and technos.
I think Plastic 5 + 3 and tite 1 are the most efficient armors, but I don't remember. It's not too big of a deal, just try to avoid really heavy armor if you can, weight will usually be best used elsewhere. Especially if you have dinky chassiseseses like me... bwahaha

I've always wanted to go to Japan. The problem is I don't know a bit of Japanese and probably won't/can't learn it.

And you should post one bot at a time, improve it, then post another. I know you want to get them all out quickly, but we can't help as much when you do it like that. Also, I believe the pistons have to be on a spin motor of some kind to trinity, so you'd be better off with one arm, as Reier said.

Also, if someone has a coloured username, they're trustable.

Apart from Vertigo

So, in short;
Slow it down a bit
Listen to advice and post updates to the robots
I <3 Japan
Take Reier's advice
 1 ant for ever spin motor. It gets more complicated for bursts, but the SnS only needs 2.
Welcome!

[Reier]

Take Reier's advice

Sorry for the spam but I had to do this ahaha

[ty4er]

take their advice but use 3 ant batteries so it wont slow down near the end of a match

That chassis isnt the worst as you could easily fit the e-teks into the chassis (the axles can go out, it's just the main motor part that has to be inside if that makes sense) and get more weapons. You probably wont need razors on the very first extender coming from whatever you're attaching them to (in this case, a piston).

And heres the my next bot!
 
Name:TTMK3
Armor:Plastic 5

[Jonzu95]

Always build to weight limit... Also Those panic attack skirts seems to be useless.

[Badnik96]

Nice battery use and drive, but the PA skirts just block the weapons.

[Reier]

You actually can just attach the Eteks to the MEs to save weight

[Conraaa]

Do the same with the storm pistons to save weight and the rule of 7. Make sure the weapons are all facing one way, having double sided weapon racks is a waste.

[Naryar]

Still you're wasting extender weight.

[Gropaga]

My next bot thats custom version pf TTMK3.
 
Name:TTMK4MW
Armor:Plastic 5

PS:

Still you're wasting extender weight.

Naryar,You didn't knew that someone said that?

[Jonzu95]

I would change the wheels to Vlads.

[Naryar]

I would not use Eteks on MW's. Get NPC fast/Techno drive.

It looks pretty decent in fact.

Still you're wasting extender weight.

Repetition helps advice to enter in people's heads.

[ty4er]

I would have the npc fasts (left and right) attached directly to the chassis to save weight and lets you take advantage of the fact that anything attached to the baseplate (direct chassis) is invincible (however the motors will start to smoke and lose power rather quickly due to the npc fasts' low hp).

Also get more weapons facing one way, e.g. razors on the beater bars

[Badger]

Try to improve a bot before you move on. i know that you want to show off what you've made but nothing will come of pushing them out then leaving them without improving them. Mind you, everything look good so far, just need a little tweaking and optimizing.

Razors on beater bar is bad for trinty.

It was TTMK3 Custom edition.
 
Still needs more post to post next one.....

i mean,Razors only have 1000 hp i think
