none of both. but take the design of the second one and make the chassis tighter use 3 - 4 ants and use the weight you got left for armor or weapons. or weaponarmor.

Oh hey look guys it's Hurricane 2

As for the new cersions, use the second one, but add more supports to the disc

Jakewilliamson · « **Reply #102 on:** May 20, 2014, 10:46:09 AM »

OK, the second version it is then, Gave it a better disc and smaller teeth(the cheatbot2 Matilda teeth) and more weapon:

I have a little weight left over, shall I give it more ants or hypno teeth'?

Lol, Storm dragon was much like your hurricane 2, except how different the chassis is.

Personally I wouldn't add an ant or hypno teeth - I'd put something at the end of your axle supports (eg an axle or vertical extender) to make it look actually supportive.

Thyrus · « **Reply #104 on:** May 20, 2014, 10:54:20 AM »

and shrink the chassis!

Shall I add a tail at the rear if that's OK, otherwise one flip would flip it on its back?

cephalopod · « **Reply #106 on:** May 20, 2014, 10:59:10 AM »

Easy fix for that - shrink the MASSIVE chassis down to the minimum as Thy suggested then have the wheels at the back. But still, you really need something in the gap at the end of your extenders over the disc in my opinion.

Chassis height shrink downed:

Dunno what to do with the remaining weight left, shall I add black batteries?

cephalopod · « **Reply #108 on:** May 20, 2014, 12:48:23 PM »

There's no reason to add batteries. I don't know why you want to add them so much :P

Add some decoration, if you have weight left, or improve the wheels.
By the way, by chassis shrinking, I don't think Thy meant the height necessarily, more the size - you have a lot of unnecessary empty space, but it's good that you can get it invertable.

Bring back the techno wheels.

Also I'm glad to see you like yugioh :) welcome to the club mate.

Wheels changed and skin added:

you are ignoring the chassis shrinking posts aren't you?

Sorry about that, just wanted the chassis height shrinking down.

Shield · « **Reply #114 on:** May 21, 2014, 02:52:34 AM »

Needs one more supports down the middle to hold up the belt

Naryar · « **Reply #115 on:** May 21, 2014, 09:21:11 AM »

overly huge chassis

and yes, repetition is repetitive

Jakewilliamson · « **Reply #116 on:** May 21, 2014, 10:09:45 AM »

OK, changes done, gave him some lighting spikes for eyes:

cephalopod · « **Reply #117 on:** May 21, 2014, 10:10:42 AM »

And the chassis is still the same size :P

Nope, sorry about that, I just want the chassis height shrinking down, once again im sorry.-_-

Alright, I think it's time for some CLARIFICATION. NARYAR STYLE.

You consistently build your chassis too big. And you don't listen to all of our advice. It doesn't help your bot, it wastes weight in 99% of cases, weight that is wasted instead of being used on more interesting things.

Fit your component mass to your chassis instead of just building a chassis and then putting components in it.

Or you can judge the chassis size needed for when you have an idea what components you are going to put it in there but that is more for advanced builders.

Have you checked the Tutorials section ? You should.

And about chassis height, if you click the chassis height ruler just one pixel under the end you'll achieve minimum possible height. But we're talking about length and width and that generally this bot will be served much more by a T-shaped chassis.
