Loaded with batteries. I'm thinking abouth getting 2 flippers and downgrading the titanium armor.

I was able to get this and stay underweight. Where did all your weight go?

MassimoV · « **Reply #302 on:** December 19, 2011, 04:27:50 PM »

Think it's overpowered and has titanium 10.

Rebuilt & renamed Convulsive Hummingbirg

Surely you don't have enough space to put all the batteries needed.

Also needs more stabilizers. It's original for sure, but looks ridiculously unstable.

MassimoV · « **Reply #305 on:** December 21, 2011, 04:09:11 PM »

It's been stable previously. I'll check when it's ai'ed. Just from observance, it seems to be powered enough.

Beater bars and Side Panels seem a bit pointless, in my view. I might lose them, and try to get Angled Sheets on the flippers instead of straight ones. Preferably steel ones if you can.

MassimoV · « **Reply #307 on:** December 21, 2011, 04:35:34 PM »

Alight. Side pannels are pointless and I have beaters just to get some damage points.

NFX · « **Reply #308 on:** December 21, 2011, 04:44:39 PM »

If it's a flipper, you're not wanting to focus on damage, you're wanting to focus on getting your opponent OOTA. Wider flippers will allow you to get under your opponent easier.

MassimoV · « **Reply #309 on:** December 21, 2011, 06:59:10 PM »

Ok. I'll see if I can get some more ants in there.

Haven't made a false popup since BTTB4. Made one now with a medium plow and trov glitch:

What is defined as a false popup?

NFX · « **Reply #312 on:** December 23, 2011, 06:49:55 AM »

A popup that is not a true popup. It's just a regular popup. Plus I think SKBT has trademarked the phrase "False Popup" after RoboLeague.

I'm really not sure what weight class it is. If it's HW, then it's going to be far too slow, if it's MW then the chassis is eating up far too much weight. I'd also try to get all the razors pointing in the same direction, rather than alternating like you have them at the moment. They'll all hit at the same time, and therefore cause more damage to your opponent.

It's underpowered too.
I'd just try a traditional box shape chassis and see if I could get the BSGs in. It should be wide enough, and then you might be able to get one last ant in so it will be fully powered.

Try this type of Trov chassis:

Not underpowered. 6 ants is fine.

Nope, 2 1/2 per BSG.

I will try to do those things when I have more time. Also S_M how do you get the chassis to be like that.

Here's a vid of me making a similar, smaller chassis.

ty4er · « **Reply #319 on:** December 23, 2011, 12:38:17 PM »

it depends if you're in nar ai, which is 2 ants per bsg iirc.
An ant will help it a lot though.
