Performance is quite close to the real bot. Very agile, weapon isn't terribly damaging but it's good at lifting the stuff it hits, letting the bot get under the opponent.

Very nice. Mini Wheels would look better, but wouldn't give enough clearance. Shame you can't get a saw as small as you need. Good work, though.

It's cool but... one 300 point hit to the left of your drum and your whole weapon goes away.

Which is surprisingly in line with the real life version, as if someone breaks the drive chain, the weapon's dead.

Cool replica. Needs a better skin though :P

Very nice. I'd still try and defend the ME just for practicality's sake.

Dammit I was gonna make an IRL dual VS like that one!!!

Anyways, looks cool and effective :D

Nice. Looks pretty cool.

Looks decent, but spinup's too slow.

Sweet bot.

It might look better if you could put some lexan sheets over the drive motors and stuff down there.

what's with the random iron spike ? It is supposed to be a counterweight for the chassis ?

I don't get the point of the wedge as well.

The spike's mainly to keep fast stuff from running up the wedge and into the chassis.

The wedge is mostly inline with real bots of that style that have a feeder wedge that brings the opponent up into the weapon.

Does look pretty good. Top part reminds me of Tazbot a little fir some reason. Motors also look awesome angled like that. If the spinup's too slow, though, then I'd probably get some lighter hammers, or maybe swap for teeth or beater bars instead.

Perm 80 or 132?

132

Don't know why it spins up so slow then.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #639 on:** February 09, 2012, 04:06:33 PM »

Looks interesting. Does it perform well in combat?
