A popup can beat that? o_O

And that looks totally nasty. Sweet CF armor.

That thing looks pretty sweet. I'm guessing it's invertible as well?

Against 123AI, Bane would regularly beat it, Milkshake would get the occasional lucky shot on the motors and the SnS's were too havoky to test reliably, but it beat the rest.

That's a lot of weapon weight for a LW VS.

Very nice way to be efficient with the drive setup/stabilizers. It looks like it might be a bit tippy (in the backwards direction) though.

Also, those polycarb extenders might not fare so well against some of the popups in BBEANS AI... but very nice bot regardless.

It's pretty stable until it loses about half the dsl teeth, once that happens it's a bit prone to tipping. I'm thinking I might move the motors all the way to the back, but they're hilariously well protected where they are now.

I don't get why you would use multiple polycarb extenders.

The middle one gets the spacing set such that the disc is very close to centered between the skirts, could have done it a different way, but I didn't feel like reworking the mount setup. The skirts seem to fail well before the polycarb extenders even get touched with the current layout.

Dude that doesn't even make sense. Mike's almost twice your age. :P

@Mike: Is that an asymmetric VS? If so what is offset, the disk or the chassis?

Chassis is offset. I've also got some variants with an angled chassis and two disks and a slightly angled disk.

Dang... Bane is kicking all your bots' butts Mike! :P

Joking aside, that is the greatest LW VS I have ever seen.

Thst thing looks absolutely fantastic, Mike.

Shouldn't you be better with 40cm aluminium sheets protecting the Mag on that HS ?

I'm speechless. Great job.

Oh god the second version just kills it. The trapper's a nice touch.
