Hey, not bad. What's the armor on it?

Tweedy · « **Reply #61 on:** March 24, 2012, 11:02:38 AM »

Steel 5

MassimoV · « **Reply #62 on:** March 24, 2012, 11:31:34 AM »

Try making the chassis smaller, downgrade to titanium 5, get some more external armor, and maybe get heavy hammers.

The four small DSL bars are entirely useless. Get rid of them and try 45 kg hammers.

Pretty sure you can attach the hammers to smaller multiextenders and save 6 kg as well.

Oh and while not bad, it's unrealistic. Build realistic or you won't be accepted in 95% of tournaments.

off to barcelona in a few hours so i thought i'd leave on my first try on a trinity spinner:

the chassis is the lowest the drive motors will allow, 60kg hammers on long2 pistons, can beat every dsl bot ( apart from Pon2n )
ti 3 armour etekdrive motors for drive

I would put the motors out side the chassis and just make the chassis small enough for the MEs, ants, and CB

got back from barcelona yesterday and made the changes to turbulence:

plastic 3, motors and burst pistons mounted on dsl bars, etek drive motors, 70kg hammers on long2 burst pistons, techno wheels

DP.
made a mw vs based on Craaigs Pyrexia:

steel1 armour, npc's on dsl bars, perm 132 on a dsl bar, 2 30kg hammers on a dsl bar, angle connectors ( he says shamefully ) to attach the stabilisers that are also dsl bars

400 kg means its a hw

you could try swapping out the anglers for something else (anglers have crap hp anyway) or downgrading the extenders holding the drive to titanium round ones to save some weight

I'd swap those minis for ants, if they reach.

Tweedy · « **Reply #70 on:** March 31, 2012, 10:30:56 AM »

changes made: motors now mounted on steel extenders, anglers swapped for a setup of multi extenders and polycarb extenders.
now weighs 397kg

Post another pic so we can see how you managed your extender work.

ty4er · « **Reply #72 on:** March 31, 2012, 10:50:47 AM »

ew dont use steel extenders for this. use flipper segments (angled) so you only need one for the motors and stabilisers each side. e.g.

Then use a smaller bar/something different and see if you can somehow fit 60kg hammers on. or just add some weapons to the bar stabilisers

Tweedy · « **Reply #73 on:** March 31, 2012, 11:30:37 AM »

made some changes and this is what i ended up with:

MassimoV · « **Reply #74 on:** March 31, 2012, 11:32:54 AM »

Shrink the chassis.

ty4er · « **Reply #75 on:** March 31, 2012, 11:34:20 AM »

uh not quite right. get rid of the poly extender and me holding it and put the bar straight on the flipper segment. you will need a 90/45 flipper segment probably and need it like what i showed you. then you can get rid of the baseplate anchor and extender on that and just put the me as far near the front as you can and straight on goes the perm. then see if you can get some front/bottom protection and shrink the chassis a bit

Tweedy · « **Reply #76 on:** March 31, 2012, 01:16:52 PM »

I'll upload how it turned out in about an hour but until then, what do you guys think of the rebuilt turbulence i posted before the mw ?

MassimoV · « **Reply #77 on:** March 31, 2012, 01:18:53 PM »

I think It's not too bad. It seems underweaponed though. Usually don't use DSL bars for extenders in trinity spinners.

Tweedy · « **Reply #78 on:** March 31, 2012, 01:48:49 PM »

swapped them for steel extenders in the same configuration and it now weighs 799.9kg

Tweedy · « **Reply #79 on:** April 01, 2012, 08:43:32 AM »

DP.

finished the mw vs, 60kg hammers on a perm132s,npc drive, vlad wheels, 4 ant batts, 5mm plastic armour, 80cm ti sheets for stabilisers, airtight chassis, stabilisers and motors mounted on 1 flipper segment each.
