Nice! Is it invertible? It doesn't look it due to the height of that perm.

Nope, the batteries sit above and below the axes inside the chassis.

It kinda wobbles from wheel to wheel, doing so with a high speed disc is... catastrophic, to say the least.

So... I wanted to enter a tournament, and all my existing bots were kind of rubbish. I tried building a rambot for it, but I kind of forgot to add any kind of self-righter.

So, I made this.



Armour is Titanium 3
Ant batteries are counted to be at 21.

If any tourney this is for is Thyrus'.

I would try to get NPC fasts with hypnos at least.

Welp... chassis rebuild here I come :/

Wish me luck in fitting a beta in something so low again, I had no idea how I did that, it sorta happened!

I went away wanting to build a better flipper... but then I kind of made a really fast box on wheels with as many spikes as possible. It does the trick, its the first bot I have made with the ability to KO anything by killing it outright rather than flipping it over the fence or upside down.

I also made a video because... well, because I could.

Screenshots are better. From what I can see though it looks cool. Also, is that the RW song on a synthesizer?

Yep, I am in the process of making my own battle music for videos like this. Heavily based off of the RW outro music.

Hey, cool. Send me the note progression, and I might be able to do something with it.

rambots are supposed to be invertible

Now.... Advices Advices for the bot:
1.those weapon racks on the side of the bot is not needed, but if you need something to stop an opponent from flying off the flipper, you can just go with skirt hinge-Beater Bar-Razor tips/Iron Spikes.
2.those beater bars on the flipper are useless. If you wanna make some damage with the flipper you can just use weapons as your flipper.
3. Make the bot wider(MUCH WIDER) so that it can fight SnSes and Sheck Spinners better.
4. Use NPC Fasts with Hypnos at least, or if you're good with chassis management you can try Technos.

and you only need 4 clicks to fit a beta.

Why does that look almost exactly like one of King Mushroom's Havok bots? Again, the similarities between you two are just uncanny...

I'm not entirely sure, but I think this is an IRL bot. In which case, you're kinda ill-advising him. Idk if this is IRL though.

The side.. things, may be guiders as well as protection for the chassis. It's all too common for a hammer bot to side swipe you, so that does have some use. Could be a little lighter though, but I'll cut myself off there and leave it to people who are more experienced than me. I think you can get rid of a few of those ants, although I forgot how much power a beta needs.

I'm gonna play it safe and not give much more advice, but I do have to know, what are you using as drive motors/wheels?

Alright, thanks for the advises on the bots. Advises... is that a word?

Anyway, I have been using other peoples showcase ideas to... well... steal ideas. To put it bluntly.

I might try building my own without copying.

Guess whose showcase I have open on the other screen when I made that bot...

If you're looking for good showcases, Marty, Ty, NFX, Me, Pwnator, Scrap Daddy, R0B0SH4RK, Badnik, Craaig, The Ounce, and (in particular) 123 Save The Whales have series of interesting bots in their showcases.

he needs two more, Beta's need 21 ants, and spin motors need 1 ant each, because the bot got 2WD, he needs two more to fully power the bot(which can be easily get if you simplify the weapon rack)
