I really like that chassis design. Also liked the Firestorm replica on the last page. Is 20 ants not a tad much, though?

Not for a spring loaded beta, personally, I would worry about that being enough

That's fine, to be honest I'm really still very unsure about batteries.

Well J24, I go by the method of thinking up a weapon, lets say... a horizontal flywheel spinner.
I plan the chassis to accommodate a... Perm 132 or 80, depending on what you need.
I always plan a place for the motors and wheels, like on the Havok line of bots.
Lastly I put the weapon in first and then the motors and lastly, the power, 'cause ants are the smallest thing evar!

Some chassis plans I use and used in RA2 non-DSL

Chassis for Havok 2-4


Chassis for RA2 flywheel bot Gouge


Chassis for the Cataclysm line of bots


Chassis for Havok 5 - ??


@NFX, I looked on the youtubez how many ants a Beta needed, the vid said 15. I put 2 for motors and 3 for the sake of it!

My way of beating Grog

1. Hit him so hard that a hammer falls off and it goes psycho and falls over (Havok 2-4)
2. Flip it before he gets up to spinning speed (Havok 5)
3. Corner him and grind his gusts out (Cataclysm)

Nah, none of the multitude of havoks threw anyone OOTA. Took one side of weapons off, knocked off the side panels, rammed his chassis for the win. =D

Hey, even Havok 1 could throw a HW OOTA!!
Never mind Havok 5, just got Wrecktangle out from the centre, I did a WBC on him!
