Are the wheels spinning the same direction?

that's... a stupid question. If it was it would be a SnS, and anyways that's a classic drive train (F/B/L/R), so they can spin like wheels.

Made another IRL bot. Probably be something from series 2 or 3 of Robot Wars. Unhappy Ferret. MW. Tit 3. A pile of 9 ants.

replace the mag snapper with a bsg (the green snapper) and replace the micro wheels for rubbers

No, a regular one. It'll just havok if I put in the Judge Burst.

If you do use a judge burst, you could add some Typhoon or Tornado spikes for whiskers on either side. I'd go for TWMR3's, personally, so the wheels are inside the chassis, rather than sticking out on axles like that. Looks ugly, in my view. And you could skin a pair of cartoon eyes on the front corners of it, like Taur has, to complete the ferret image. =D

It's far too fast for a flipper.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #327 on:** February 04, 2012, 11:00:23 AM »

and if you do take NFX's advice I think this would be a much better BoF2 entry than Toss Box :P

Also, Mag Snappers are just plain bad compared to normal BSG's.

Which ones? The drive ones or the one that shows up first?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #330 on:** February 04, 2012, 11:15:49 AM »

The RAD lookalike.

Philippa · « **Reply #331 on:** February 04, 2012, 11:58:49 AM »

Still quite havoky.

MassimoV · « **Reply #332 on:** February 04, 2012, 11:59:58 AM »

The eyes look cool.

NFX · « **Reply #333 on:** February 04, 2012, 12:01:45 PM »

Try adding another flipper segment on the end. It could be that all the weight's too close to the axle. I'd also swap the Micro Wheels for either Minis , Hypnos or Large Ants, depending on what size you need and how much weight you'd have left over.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #334 on:** February 04, 2012, 12:15:36 PM »

wide ant wheels would honestly be better due to lower ground clearance.

Naryar · « **Reply #335 on:** February 04, 2012, 01:00:36 PM »

still an awful drive choice ! make it 2WD !

Badnik96 · « **Reply #336 on:** February 04, 2012, 02:24:37 PM »

That kills its looks Nar.

...No, since the drive is inside ???

Any better? Plastic 10 armour.

Philippa · « **Reply #339 on:** February 11, 2012, 04:35:43 AM »

That good huh? :)

Here's my BOTM bot - Plasmic Octane

EDIT: Made this shortly after waking up this morning. Not the best.
