BW True Popups aren't new, FOTEPX.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-

*half a minute later*

...Wait, really?

No, I made one months ago, and I know someone else (can't remember who) made one that was better around the same time.

There's a fail one in NAR AI (in the Narmor-spammed team), but still is a true popup :P

I made it faster with slimbody motors, but it does tip over some times. After I made the splash, I changed the control board and gave it smaller wheels. It can beat every BW in DSL 2.1 except Mircrowhirl.

Edit: I realized the pic of the bot's exterior is the old version. My apologies!

Anyone?

Hmmm, extra 7 kg to use up there.

Don't think you really need a metal hinge.

Also, moar armor.

Those extenders look rather exposed. You should use something more durable--perhaps a hex plate with 3 razors? Increase durability and damage at the same time. You might be able to scoot the BSG over a bit to make it symmetrical too.

Nice bot, the only other problem is that it's too skinny, but I don't see anything you can do about that. And a metal hinge wedge is great if you have weight for it, depending on whether your goal is more to beat other wedges, or to beat non-wedges.

New and improved! I used Click's idea of using the hex plate, but had to take out a battery.

Nice. I take it it's your MMR entry. How many ants?

Natef · « **Reply #190 on:** November 07, 2010, 06:04:45 PM »

Four, I believe.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #191 on:** November 07, 2010, 06:38:59 PM »

I like it. Nate, are you planning to enter CCIV? I think it'd be cool.

Natef · « **Reply #192 on:** November 07, 2010, 06:48:53 PM »

I'm not sure If I will.

Somebody · « **Reply #193 on:** November 07, 2010, 08:39:22 PM »

You should. :D

Natef · « **Reply #194 on:** November 07, 2010, 08:41:17 PM »

It's not a square chassis, though.

Edit: I'm putting it on the bot exchange.

Somebody · « **Reply #195 on:** November 07, 2010, 08:43:23 PM »

Well not with that obviously (its only a beetleweight), but who knows if you could create a cube popup?

Natef · « **Reply #196 on:** December 30, 2010, 01:53:32 PM »

My attempt at a Tsar Tank replica:

The original:

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #197 on:** December 30, 2010, 01:54:34 PM »

Looks quite good, Nate. Wheels are a little bit small, though.

Scorpion · « **Reply #198 on:** December 30, 2010, 01:56:04 PM »

Yeah, if I were you i'd have made it a HW and used m.o.e's perm motors with BIG disks.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #199 on:** December 30, 2010, 02:02:32 PM »

Should be much wider
