I like the looks of it. So it just hobbles along when you fire the burst pistons?
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Not so much hobbles as rockets around the arena at absurd speeds.

This is probably a more appropriate weapon system for the way the drive behaves-

Is it controllable at all? I've heard of using pistons as drive, but I could never get it to work for myself. I'm wondering if it's at all possible to get it to direct itself at the opponent.

I've seen a bot that uses pistons for drive... 4 in the chassis.... it creeps around the arena with the piston's recoil, and can even turn.

Great name also.

Won't be doing much bot building the next few days. BBots starts tomorrow and ends Friday.

Did do another round of the LW tourney with Fisticuffs winning, beating Organ Grinder 2, Organ Grinder, Walkway To Oblivion, Seven Year Itch and Sawz-All 2.

Power Mad(winner of 1st tourney) lost in round 1 to Closer.

Organ Grinder 2 beat Closer, Box of Rocks, Infected Piercing and Twisted.

Built a new HW beater bar bot. Seems decently effective, but the hinged wedges keep dropping below ground level.

Unrealistic... ish.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Only 'cause there's no way to make RA2 use two motors to power the same weapon.

I like the top bot. It looks original. I'm assuming the bot climbs the wedges and the side bars keep it inside while the disc gut rips?

I love the double drill/sawbot hybrid one.

Even if it's not a killer, it's so just damn cool and must be awesome to watch.

Been playing with HW designs. Here's two VS's. The one on the left is much more deadly.

It's fairly stable, but since I used the smaller perms it doesn't really have the power for quick killing blows.

Awfully cool...

As well as awfully underpowered. In no way you can fit 351,4 amps in that.

Is the similarity to the name of a certain Nintendo fighting game franchise intentional or accidental? There's only one problem: I can't figure out how the @#$% it works!
