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

You forgot to show the weight and armor again >_> Othervise, a decent looking bot.

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.

Its because that bot is well built and built to the weight limit.

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.
