Ok I made a concious decision that I would make my MW of the team a hammer so I updated Helium:

I'd say swap the Micros for Minis, and shorten the front wedge a bit. I've no idea how many batteries you have in the chassis, I suspect it's not enough, you need at least 6 for this, IIRC, and try to get some stronger flipper panels, preferably Aluminium or Titanium, if you can find the weight somewhere.

Will do. I'll make the chassis larger because I could only fit 2 ants in there. i anloy used micros because of the HP. Thank you though  :bigsmile:.

It looks cool, but it's too slow.  I don't think the halfsheet is necessary for stability, and I think I see a DSL bar in the back that could be removed.  Get rid of those and upgrade the drive to at least Slimbodys+hypnos, and see if you can make the flipper skirts stronger.  Oh, and moar batteries.


Now the question is, can you do all that and make it look different from all the other LW BSG flippers out there?

Here's going to be my CC4 entery (if I can get to send it):



1mm Titanium
2ants

At this point, I just want to enter a tournament.

use a BSG burst. Lighter same power less bat power required. Also you could mount the drives off the Alu extender instead of
Alu extender-->Ti extender --> drive.

Good idea on the drive and burst but only one problem, the burst is mounted outside of the chassis because it's to big and won't fit.

2 things.  Use BSG, and use a 40cm skirt as motor extender.

Also you can probably reduce your chassis size.

I would use a bsg but it doesn't have an attatch point opposite of the moveable piece. What's a motor extender?
Also, I'll try to shrink the chassis. Thanks for the advice.

*carry's on hoping everybody sends in wedge bots for CC4*
Anyway, I'd also try and tighten up that chassis considering everything's externally mounted/

In order to get the BSg to fit, simly make the chassis all the way to the left side of the bot and put the BSG on the right. If you want me to draw a diagram I can.

Underpowered, if you use a bsg, you will need 4 ant batts

Try to make the drive central, but overall doesn't look too bad, depends on how wedgy it is though

It's fairly wedgey. What do you mean when you say "make the drive central".

Its not central to the chasis, one is further to one side than the other
Try to mount them directly onto multis, which are attached to the baseplate

It should be central to the weight distribution, otherwise it's more likely to drag to one side.
