I suggest you should, you can use the image resizer link I gave to resize your previous pics.

It doesn't make large images load faster.
A 4WD shell spinner? No. Just, no. 2WD is the better option as you can attach more weapons or a more powerful weapon motor. Sorry for n00b advice, if it offended anyone.

Sorry for n00b advice, if it offended anyone.yeah....the problem there is i have another bot which is a full body spinner and it has 2 wheels and it can only drive in circles constanty even though the motors are perfectly lined up and centered so sorry if im put off using 2wd for these bots, i am not going through that again i hope you understand

Also, is it HW or MW? I cannot even see the bot's weight.
If it's an irl bot there is 0 wrong with 4wd. In fact it can often look way cooler, plus much more weaponry on that ring would look off if irl.
So basically as we all know ring spinners like speed squared, that one with the flipper on top from years ago etc are impossible in ra2 so we've sort of adopted a rule where ring spinners like that are allowed to have the disc clip through the wheels for irl
Pretty good, but couple of notes.Piglet drive is a no, as they are weapon motors and don't have torque etc. Recommend changing them to slimbodys. Also I think maybe a front hinged flipper would be better as they are a fair few rear hinged flipper cluster bots but hey that's just me. But still great bar piglet drives :)
I like it. The way you've angled the backs of them so they mesh together is super neat. Like Hoppin says though, piglet motors for drive is a big no-no. Try to switch to Slimbodies or TWMR Drives.
