That's a pretty nice bot for a newcomer !

It's unstable mostly because you have too much ground clearance (use smaller wheels) and your wedges are way too short. I'll go 120cm sheets.

Also always show weight of the robot. I would imagine this be alittle over 400? And is that Steel 10 as armor i see?

may be in stead of vertical spinners try the horizontal, and also attach some spikes on a disk instead of that saw

The sawblade on an E-Tek makes your Fluffly weapon spinners inefficient. Keep this a vertical spinner.

Also SSG, the first is at least 500kg.

And with a Vertical Spinner, make it spin upwards.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

That sawblade on an E-Tek actually makes your bot worse.

You might want to check the DSL showcases here and lurk on them. You'll learn PLENTY of things.

your brother is using the rookie team i think. is that bot you showed walrus?

the rookie team is actually decent in DSL.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.
