That is an awesome irl robot and better then mine! Well done
As far as I can see, it has two black batteries and a red battery? That should be fine, I think. Though the best way to see if your robot has enough battery is to just do a bunch of fights and see if it ever runs out.That looks like insufficient battery life.

I've moved to control board and the battery back. Also concerning battery life, fitting another ant battery brings it to 249.1 which makes it a middleweight :/ but I'll see if I can move around some stuff

good bot but
1. Theres plenty of space to put the motor and wheels inside
2.Try and put in a piston burst motor if you have dsl 2.2
3. what armour is it using
keep it up!

So I've changed to the burst piston and it's a lot better, thanks for the suggestion and I'll still be using the room within and it's Ti 3 armour :mrgreen:
Looks like the arm is clipping slightly through the drive motors
Looks like the arm is clipping slightly through the drive motors, but other than that, great job! I often struggle to build anything lighter than a CW so I look forward to seeing what you're capable of in higher weight categories.
I like the pixel art on the top. Very nice.
(dunno whether it's supposed to be pixel art, but either way, it's good)
Even at 676.3 KG that's pretty severely underweight for a HW, and overweight for a CW. Beef up the armour a bit, downgrade the drive motors and upgrade the disc to a Custom DSL one like F1Krazy suggested. You may even have enough weight left over to upgrade the weapon motor to a Tornado or 6 mag gearbox or a Dual Perm if it'll fit.

What drive motors would be a good alternative?
If you need help with RA2CF post a thread up in Technical Support, they should be able to help you get it working.
As for the bot itself, attach some armor on the sides. Also, install ra2cf, so you can make more intricate armor plating that surrounds the robot.

4 ants? Things could get tight with flips and self righting from my experience. Also, what are you using for your flipper arm?
You'd should be fine with only one black battery, then use the weight elsewhere.I'd personally go with two red batteries just to be on the safe side. That still saves you 10kg,which should give you enough leftover weight to swap those small teeth for two large Typhoon teeth. They'd last longer, deal more damage, and have a slightly better reach. It's a very neat and tidy design, though! I like it. Could possibly use a proper skin as well, though.

That looks really nice actually. Could benefit from DSCs IRL extender packs, and BFEing the axe to swing 180 degrees, but the core design is solid.

How wiuld i bfe the axe though, i cant find anything that tells me how to do it
Solid, tight little build. What's the armor?
Suggestions would be to try skinning it (could be a fantastic bot w/ a good skin), otherwise you might consider downgrading drive motors for astros and try to fit in another ant (that flipper will drain your batteries fast), though that suggestion is made w/o knowledge of armor.
Update: what extenders are you using, since I see 2 colors?
I like it. Flipper DOES look a little messy though, and is probably pretty underpowered too. Most lightweight front hingers I've seen use more than a VDMA front hinge burst, so on a middleweight it probably won't be enough. You should probably get DSCs IRL extender packs and make the flipper yellow at the very least, but making the transition from one plate to the other less obvious/jarring would probably help with the appearance too.
That looks a lot better. Switch those armour panels to yellow and you'll be set.I like it. Flipper DOES look a little messy though, and is probably pretty underpowered too.

Ok, so I've made the flipper cleaner and am working on making another version of Inferno with with storm burst motor and a thinner panel, just have issues fitting in the batteries.
And where can I download the IRL extenders pack?
Inferno V:
Here's the IRL extenders download Hoppin: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=286.
Yes, I do like the chassis paint job but the flipper could use a little beauty treatment like using the extender pack combined with the armor pack if do please, or just use the extenders. Sometimes I find it best to connect the chisels to a single skin hinge so you can adjust the ground clearance to get under other Robots easier. Just don't make it too low otherwise your Bot will be hanging off the floor. Also try using TWM3R for the drive. It may give lower drive power than the ones you're currently using, but this will give you enough weight spare to add better armor or a storm (VDMA) front hinge burst piston if your intention is to make a middle weight. But do keep up the good work. Also what Armour are you using?
Well with some of those extenders, you make much nicer connecters to any Robots. Good choice for the Armour and switching the basic VDMA with a Storm VDMA, it much better in terms of power and with the battery power look fine. For the Armour, Plastic 10 can with stand a beating but still handy to use. But it's up to you if you ever want to enter either version to a tournament, I'm just giving advice.Here's the IRL extenders download Hoppin: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=286.

Thanks Dark-Al, ok so new flipper slightly thinner but still works well. Was able to keep the drive and increase the weapon (But I have made two other versions with each of these separate features, low drive & high power weapon then vice versa. The flippers now red. Finally it's Pl10. Batteries might be lack luster though no too sure.
Inferno VI:
Love the claw setup. I feel like it could have better drive. Then it could perhaps boxrush spinners. Sadly, then you'll have to pretty much remake the entire thing...

Honestly i dont mind, another idea i had was that i could increase the chassis height a bit to add some armour plates.

I think Jamied would appreciate this bot. With a better skin, this could be awesome.you guessed right :D
Looks kinda bland to be completely honest, and the bot doesn't look right with the hub being thinner than the bar itself.
Are you going for realism or are you going for competitiveness?
It's underweight for a CW, AFAIK you need to build to the weight limit of 600.
Could do with some variation in the colour, but the design itself looks solid. A very good first attempt at an extenderbot.
Was making another extender botNow THAT is neat. Wedge is a little steep but there's not much you can do due to the limiter number of angles achievable with triangle plates. Don't worry too much about the plates not meeting at the top, it still looks solid.
Outer
Inner
A lot faster than the previous one, however I can't get the triangle plates to meet up at the top, plus need to add wedges to bottom of triangle plates, but cant.

Hey I actually liked the weapon setup, your bot however needs a wedge to get under your opponents.
he wants a flip fest, and wedgelets prevent that. Is it invertible? It has a Crank-E vibe to itHey I actually liked the weapon setup, your bot however needs a wedge to get under your opponents.
It, line the MW is designed for TGMs tournry which fir sone rrasion doesnt allow wedglets
Hammerbot is tight. Only thing I might suggest would be giving it some sort of tail to help offset when it fires the hammer (if that's much of an issue for it)
Would benefit a lot from a skin or something, it's more bland than a packet of uncooked spaghetti right now
Oh hi Gravity
Oh hi Gravity
Gravity? No, this is his original robot, Grab A Tea!
Looks pretty neat-o. To be honest, it reminds me more of Overkill GTI than Gravity.
Yeah that looks great now. A lot cleaner. Has the flipper performance improved now that it has 2 bursts?
That's a cool robot. Are the front wedges meant to be snakes with one tooth? Because snakes should have both of their teeth.
Ok so these are two bots, one entender, one joke.

The bar looks kinda cool, but the disc is just plain ugly.
damn dude when did you get good
Really digging the extender wings. What did you do for those antennae?
Weight? If that's a HW it would be funny as ****
Top kek
Since they're the shortest VDMAs instead of longs (I'm assuming) how does it stack up to something like Paladin?
wtf, paladin only had 3 mediums and it launches bots
What kinda drive you got in there? If you have crap drive you might want to trade a VDAM for better drive, assuming you don't want the bot to be a total meme. Flippers rely on speed to get under other bots.
Bro can you send me this thing, I think it would be a ton of fun to play with
Not sure if you know how to AI (I'm assuming you do due to your building skill but who knows), but if you don't I could AI it for you and send it back so you can test your other bots against it
Uhm...is this going into our team challenge? If so, you win lol.
Apart from the burst spam at least you made it look good.
I like the vert the best. Still not a fan of how the black bits on the skirt hinges clip out, and the angles of the sides could line up with the angle of the 45 degree pieces a bit better. Was there any reason you couldn't use metal hinges?I was lazy
Snappy the robot :VIt looks kinda unfinished to me personally. The jaw in particular could do with some more substance to it.

All purple, all punishing, all power....me likey! :dance:
But. Will it explode this time?

Thank you, Im humbled.
There's a few glaring issues with it, mainly the poor wedge and once flipped it's pretty usless. I think with some tweaks I can make it competitive.
If you're looking to create something like this I recommend using an extenderbot chassis which I can send your way if you'd like. It's a bit intimidating at first, but once you laern it it becomes pretty simple.
Also it's rather funny as T-Minus, a MW, is bigger than this.

Looks cool as heck, but kinda underweight for a SHW.
Put bigger rear wheels to be semi mobile atleast. (One day i would like to 1v1 our two doggos (even if there is 200+ kilos difference))
Lemme remove my wedge...Put bigger rear wheels to be semi mobile atleast. (One day i would like to 1v1 our two doggos (even if there is 200+ kilos difference))
The back wheels are medium colsons whilst the front are small. So it's got plenty, of drive. Yea, it'd be fun to have a 1v1 of the two, you'd probs win due to your wedge. But I might make some changes to make mine better.

what's the havoc ratio on it?

maybe 'stable' wasnt the right word, i meant more like it self-rights quickly I assume? like it doesn't spikeball over the arena much i would guess
Holy **** this is some nice stuff.
Do love me some big flippers.
I think it'd look better with a higher back, though.
Lovin' the big flipper thing!
Would be super cool if it had a double hinged flipper, like St Agro, but weight and space I guess
I think somewhere LRA2 just kinda winced. What size bursts have you got in there?
Neat, I love the wheelguards. I guess it's more of a tornado-style pushbot than a flipper in practice tough?
That is one mean looking drum spinner, are those large drums?
It looks really nice. Gives off a real mean vibe, and it seems like it'll be a beast in combat. Not a big fan of the color scheme, but that's more of a "me" thing. And how's its speed? I can't really tell its drive from the pictures.

Thank you, the colour is meant to be giving off a metallic/cold steel vibe so I think it hits it rather well. And the drivr is NPC fast so its pretty nippy for a HW.

Very badass. Can't really offer any criticism, other than that Fallout's weapon looks pretty high up. Also big kudos for making using the Growler wheels look nice on a bot.Yea I might have to lower it. I have some plans for alternatives.
I dig the drumbot a lot!Thanks man, means a lot coming from yourself
Showcase feedback great as ever.... Maybe me posting at 2am doesn't help :really_makes_you_think:I'm not a massive fan tbh. The weapon motors poke out the back way too far for my liking (Over 50% of the motor is sticking out) and the wheelguards don't look sturdy enough for me.
Anyways here's a vert. Used badnik's vert as inspiration.

Not a fan of the antennae or the astro, but digging the low profile and use of panel edgesYea, astro's are a pain but it's a limit of the weight. And the antennas yea I might give them a fiddle around. Se what works and what doesn't. Thanks bb :heart_smiley:
that is hella compact, the angled beaters are a nice touch too
As Olister said, the splash is awesome.
The bar spinners are going to be pretty hard to beat, I think. All of them look great though!
The splash looks ace, putting a lot of faith in bar spinners I see
I love it apart from the spike strip on the tail just looks a bit out of place, would anything else look better?Three spike strips with the outer two angled inwards to make a wider point?
CW & BWCW looks neat although it would be better if the red stripe of the lifter went along the whole top of the bot rather than kinda jutting out awkwardly half way.

What kind of drum? Bass? Snare? Bongo?
you definitely made a better 4wd drum spinner
That looks real good. I've been wondering for a while if it's worth keeping the weight off a bot so it's a bit faster? or is that dumb?In general you'd be better off using that weight to improve the drive system or improve something else on the bot. Lighter IRL bots are more likely to just bounce off the opponent than wedge under them as well, so for a flipper staying 50kg underweight doesn't really make sense

I don't want to enter something that isn't tecnicaly mine it feels wrong :/Wow that's really impressive well done and thank you :DYou absolute legend :D that thing looks way more improved and you made it look a lot smoother how much does it weigh now?
I believe it's 248.9
No, thank you, I've put a version on Bot Exchange if you'd like to take a look. I've also made an Orcs Wars 2 legal version.

Well for starters you made the bot first and I just made a copy, and secondly I wasn't suggesting you enter it, just take a look on how you can use and improve the design further.

So cute ❤❤❤
what a cute lil robit
sweet Razer clone, I looks amazing I always wondered how making that shape 'chassis' would work
He's adorable! is that two scoops on the front?
New SHW for Orcs Wars, unless I build something better.
looks damn cool, I love the wheels! are they called N-12s on DSL?
Why do the beaters on the top and bottom not connect up?
i know combat efficiency is about last on priorities for irl but those flat motors are gonna get blown off with how exposed they are and this weapon has no reach.Flatmotors have a ridiculously high amount of hitpoints
I've built some drums and it's a constant problem if it's not long enough
pretty hard with small weightclasses like this though
but they're held by 100 or so HP extenders lol, any hit the side from HS and **** you here goes half your weapon

Box fast is a little much for a dusty boi
That Grab-o-saw clone looks beast! thanks hop :claping
that is nice dude, wonder what it could be for?
That's so cute! Reminds me of Sonic from Series 3 of RW. Love it.
Kinda looks like Fissions lean green brother, looks awesome man

After making it, I did notice the similarities between it and Fusion, but I guess that's a good thing?
I'm not a fan of the back of it tbh. Looks pretty boxy, and the motors clipping out slightly isn't great. Front looks good though.
very nice for Tombclone
Is it Envy? :bigO: :bigO: :bigO:
Generally I'm not a fan of overheads but this is pretty impressive to get all the components and look cool
I love Rykon. What bits move?
I couldn't pick a favourite they are both lovely

Thanks man, im waiting for irl pack 4/DSC TC to get the new dualmag motors in, so it's not super slow.
Now that thing is sick assuming it runs on over kill motors
That's incredible. Love the look of Lockjaw, and this perfectly captures the appearance of it very well and more. Probably one of my favorite bots of yours
Step in the neon natureWhy didn't you attach the bars so they look like 1 cohesive part rather than the way they are now?

oh man I love fusion 2 so much. Maybe replace the uncoloured parts with a highlight colour? I think radioative green would work, or yellow to match the flatmotors
I think Scorch is the neater on the builds but Fusion 2 looks cooler, the side wedges look a little flimsy but that isn't a huge issue as you managed to keep it down to a CW
What happens if the batteries fall outIt dies.
Then why put them outside?cause irl building is looks over combat efficiency
Are you using slimbody motors for the weapon? I see lots of designs using what looks like them but when I do it's always super underwhelming. The angled extenders on the side also turn it from super cuddly looking to terrifying, nice touch¬¬¬! :claping :claping
But are they good? Like better than other motorsStupidly better.
But are they good? Like better than other motorsYes. You will get a significant weight cut as the flatmotor only weights 11 kg. Also, talking about cheatbot2, you should realize that most of the components there are illegal at tournaments. Most of the components at cheatbot2 includes overpowered (cannons, magnets, cheatpack, etc) and replica components
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]I feel like frozone is a better name. I like the design of it and the poly carb really add to it
looks good. but i'm frankly not sure about those long black bars, they look like they may be ruining the srimech for me.
He means the aerials I'm pretty surelooks good. but i'm frankly not sure about those long black bars, they look like they may be ruining the srimech for me.
Black bars? Which bot is this?

Nary, they don't have collision. They're purely aesthetic :P
Pretty solid lineup. I-95 is still your best work to date IMO. Absolutely top drawer
That said, not really a fan of the trifecta of overheads in the lower weightclasses. Could really do with some variety there. The random 45 degree angle spam on the side of Flatline looks pretty odd to me too.

I agree with Robo here but I complain too much, I've done the same thing with bar spinners in the lower weight class.
Overall they are all lovely builds
Can we get
Pit viper vs Grabosaw in grabbers
That would be sick
A standard antweight all grown up. I like the weapon assembly.
This looks like something superbot would build :thinking:
I havn't built anything in ages. But this makes me want to go back. It's absolutely beautiful!
Hop is a name stealer, plz ban
I like the teeth placement and the use of shell panels, Nice lil’ vert boi
tasty
yo that's tight
There are a lot of SOW clones out there but this is by far the best one
hot damn, look cool
Set my heart afire.

how good does she flip
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]FINALLY someone makes a SHW
Nebula looks glorious :heart_smiley:
Great work as always.
Gonna be covering the flats ?tomorrow?The design is real neat. The only real changes I'd make is to make the chassis a touch taller to lessen some of that NPC clipping, and to skin it differently. Probably my favourite bot you've built in a long while though

****ing gorgeous dude
:claping :claping
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]looks great! :claping :claping :claping :claping
Tell me that drive and battery isn't Neon Duster
heckThat Looks destructive :claping but I think this robot is extremly unstable
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Nice and compact. I really like the skinning job you did on the hammerhead. How stable is it when it's swinging its hammer around? Seems like it would be too smol to be effective
Looks cool as sh**. :thumbup Is it stable sideways ?
It still looks good, but I'm gonna be honest, I'm not really sure what changed, it seems like you just shaved off a pound and have the battery wires sticking out now
Unironically WTH is this?Unironically this is God
Looks sweet dude, better than mineSad!
Cool S3 style bot. Any plan to make it fit in the MW limit, or to use up the weight to make a proper CW?
Modifications to the robot you all love :heart_smiley:You lost

sweet IRL popup bro
Interesting design, I thought the white triangle piece at the front was just a gap at first.
I like it alot thought.
Oh-oh, I got breaking news

Welcome back Freeziez! What happened to you and VG Showdown 2?Oh-oh, I got breaking news
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
cool
What burst motor are you using, a VDMA long? Is it strong enough for HWs?2 mediums, they aremt bad, but don't quite give the kick I'm looking for
Welcome back Hoppin! What happend to you and middleweight mixup 2?
From dust.
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Did you actually change anything aside from the colour? Nice bot either way chief.
Bloody lovely...New Blood has been recieving some great builds so far!
sick details. big fan of the wheel guards in particular
