Well, a 36 hs in DSL isn't bad... accept that its not allowed... Just a test really : 24 Maces 12 Razors, NPC Fasts and 4 ants.

And now a sleek looking ultra powerful flipper: 2 Beta Motors (fully powered)
Just to clarify, i suck at DSL, but wish to become better :D

It's not that its' not allowed, it's just that it's not common. I've actually rebuilt a couple of Starcore bot's in DSL myself. :dumb)
Anyways, for Flipping Frenzy, it's not bad I think? I'm not too much of a veteran builder. But from what I've seen, it's actually decent. What's the armor on it?
Also, don't use Taz wheels. Techno Destructo's and Hypno's offer the best grip and the best speed.
-
The armour is titanium 5mm for Flipping Frenzy.
-
Flipping Frenzy isn't too bad. I'd get some stronger skirts on there, polycarb wont last long.

Might want to lower it to Plastic 5 or Tit. 3 and use the weight for stronger skirts instead.
-
I like Flipping Frenzy's skin. But yeah, get some aluminium or titanium skirts on that.
-
Ok done that, the only reason i had polycarbonate ones was because there lighter, so the flipper will be more powerfull.

While that may be true, with two Beta bursts, you can afford to make the skirts a lot more durable than polycarbonate and still be powerful. I think my old dual-Beta burst flipper had steel skirts and could throw HWs quite some distance.
-
I remember playing against flipping frenzy online.
It looks quite cool imo
-
lol @ the stock bot in DSL
also that flipper just looks fragile

Noice bit of standard - Rocket Sledge: 2 Perm 132s with 2 DSL Hammerheads on each, 4 ants, pl1, 2 casters (are they allowed in DSL as armour?)
-
Rocket Sledge is very original but is it stable?? Bit of a DSL noob too but are 4 ants enough??
-
Yes its quite stable, and i think 4 ants is enough... ;)
-
it reminds me of skbts bot that won ta2
-
Rocket Sledge is very original
Eh... not hugely.
I am hugely confused by your choice of poly extenders on the back. Does it need that extra length or is it just fragile for the sake of being fragile?
Also, seems like quite a lot of weight for a perm - does it spin fast enough? I tend to largely steer clear of dual vs at HW but that's because I love the power of a dual.
-
Keep up the standard, it's nice to see it. Good job so far, listen to craaig when it comes to VS :P
-
the reason i used poly's was because it needed to be further back for stability.

A baby version of rocket sledge, Armour is PL1 but it hits hard and packs a punch :D
-
Looks unrealistic as the bar cuts through the perm belt, but otherwise looks very nice.
-
Interesting but tribals are weak in DSL. Try mounting your weapons on a hexplate.

My take at IRL. If it is counted as IRL, this will be my entry to Powers Of Three.
-
I wouldn't say so, but it's ultimately down to kurt
-
I don't think so either
also how in the nine hells can a wind prevail ?
-
Yeah nah this is DSL standard, I would actual try biulding the bot more like a good standard MW FS.
-

If that does get accepted, I will be amazed. Though breath of fury made it into BB8 so maybe...

So, what makes it unrealistic? what would i need changing?

That's DSL Standard, look at Thyrus' and Maz's schowcases for IRL stuff.

oh
oh
you mean the major winds in a region
okaaaay

Armour Is Tit3... Please tell me this is IRL, nothing intercepts, and is supported.
-
I'd try to get some axle support on the Perm side as well, but other than that I'd say it's IRL.
-
Add more supports for the weapons and I'll accept it.

So, back to standard, I need some advice for this bot, I feel like the weapon setup isn't efficient as it could be, the chassis is very compact and the armour is Titanium 3
-
Why attach shell panels when you can just attach the hammer directly onto the DSL bars?

To lower it to hit wedges better, clearly.
Too much weapon weight if I'm honest. Would be better off with less but heavier hammers. Needs bottom protection as well, otherwise it's going to be a light snack for the very bot types you lowered the hammers to counter.
-
Thanks, by bottom protection do you mean the titanium half sheets? I tried, but i think the chassis is to small for it.

There's more than one way to do bottom protection you know ;)
-
too much hammers around your spinners and it doesn't get enough acceleration between each hammer hit to really hit, so it's kinda bad for knockback aka HS survival.
it looks cool though.

Unnamed lightweight FS I just made, PL1, 4 Medium Beaters and 4 Light DS Teeth. Needs a skin.
I have a feeling this is more Standard than IRL...

I accidentally crocodile
Derpadile: Ti 1, Sweg, 12 Medium Beaters

Looks cool, reminds me of a modern-day Dundee.

Looks sweet.

It's on the borderline.
However, it would be a very cool standard bot if it were more efficient and an interesting IRL bot if it were more realistic.
-
lol. It reminds me of all those funny looking robots (eg: milly ann bug).
-
it looks like a platypus.
-
Lol thats so cool, I can imagine it being crocodilatron 2

>Applying stock skills to DSL...
(attempt for Undisputed)
This bot should have been good if it wasn't for havok :( - 24 light ds teeth on 6 piglets, techno drive on npc fasts and 8 irons on a duel Etek and 6 ants.
I would've moved the piglets forward, but the bot doesn't work anyway.

not bad. i kinda like it
-
you'll want the angled spinners further down the wedge as part of the feeder system.
Skirt hinges are extremely havok-y if you put that kind of weight on :/
-
Why are your eteks pink?

Why are your eteks pink?
Pretty sure E-teks were pink in DSL 2.0 but in 2.1 they changed color.

A odd, but good Lightweight popup? Its completely asymmetrical :P
AL1, 4 razors, 5 ants the rest you can see. :D
-
It's underpowered- does it KO quick enough to justify it?
-
It seems pretty decent at KO'ing, by under powered do you mean battery power?
-
Personally, I'd remove a razor and get a metal hinge wedge on there.
Also, could I have the .bot file? Really likin' it.
-
FOTEPX, were you not around for 123's discovery that skirt wedges using the center AP are the best wedges?

Nope, never knew that.

I honestly expected you to be sure of what I meant :P
it's 2.5 ants per BSG. Unless that's been proven wrong lately.
