Why do you have so many air tanks
Why is your wedge on a burst piston? (Put it on a metal hinge for better results, you also have a lot of weight to eat up/lose)
Get rid of the battlepack and have 7/8 ants in there.
Would need NPC's/NPC fasts + hypnos so you're nearly there with that. (unless you have the weight for NPC fasts + Technos)
Would need a lot more weapons aswell. Not sure if you've used all the possible AP's there.

The weight limit is calling you! Go meet it! ;P

Anyway, yeah, ty4er is right, especially regarding the burst piston wedge o.o
In fact, if you get the wedge off the piston, you can take all the airtanks out.

And remember, the replicas aren't very strong or hard to beat.

Dreadnought is a poor battler, as most of the replicas.

Burst piston wedge is an original idea, but probably a worthless one.

Id say you'd best go on stock.
In my opinion,remove those side razors,and remove the storm burst.Then stick a wedge on,and remove the air tanks,and the battle pack.Then id say upgrade to NPC drive.

1mm Plastic is VERY weak. Improve it.
You'll want to improve the drive motors as well, Astros+Technos are a havok bomb waiting to happen (I know this from experience)
Perhaps the Air tanks are a bit overkill, I'd be happy with two at maximum.
It'd be better if the machine was properly invertible as well, without the need for the funny anti-immobiliser assembly on the top.

Been a long time since I have seen such an unefficient drive...

Needs to be invertible, also the baseplate anchors are worthless (especially the top one), and never use Technos with anything less than a NPC Fast. I would recommend the classic Vlads + NPC Fast here. Also needs to be less fragile.

As pwnator (i think) once said: If you cannot reach the robot, it doesn't matter what armor, And it is also fairly fast, even with astros.

Which is why you can risk the 1mm plastic only when you have halfsheet and DSL disc armor. Wedges can still OHKO your bot. Just go for Mag/NPC + Hypnos/Vlads.
