Author Topic: Powerrave's DSL briefcase (Read 42805 times)

i got my DSL working correctly again, and now got a bit into making/trying to make AW and BW. because of the problem with DSL i had a few days ago, i though every AW and BW that i made, except for rammers, were bugged as they started to randomly havoc around.
now it is fixed, i lost a lot but i do still have something left, my attempt to a BW FBS. and i think it worked out quite well.

(it has 1mm titanium armour. best i was able to get with such a loaded disc.)

also, i will make all my BW part of the 'box' series. as i first had nightbox and now freightbox (please don't ask how i got with that name, i have no idea) and i am going to make more BWs, that's for sure. i kinda like working with the lower limit in play. gives a nice challenge to it.

The most of the pics are white boxes with red xs.

there are 2 pics.

powerrave · « **Reply #5 on:** February 23, 2010, 02:57:45 PM »

i can see the pic. then just unedited screenshots. still strange. screenshots are from before adding on titanium, weight with 1mm titanium is 174.4kg

You must have had DSA on, DSA is the worst armor in DSL.

powerrave · « **Reply #7 on:** February 23, 2010, 03:31:29 PM »

no, first to use as much weight as possible, i set it to 1mm plastic. then i created the whole inside and the disc and after some trying i got the disc filled nicely and then with the remaining weight i could set the armour to 1mm titanium. i know it isn't really anything to protect myself with, but when freightbox gets flipped upside down, it is all over anyway.

not bad, I think this only needs 2 ants, and then you can upgrade to wide ant wheels.

Nice build !

BADNIK I'VE TOLD YOU AT LEAST 3 TIMES THAT 1 ANT = 1 SPIN MOTOR

powerrave · « **Reply #10 on:** February 24, 2010, 07:19:48 AM »

if i were to use 2 ant only, my drive slow down or the disc will be slower. both are 'DO NOT WANT!'. i have thought this bot trough to have a good armed disc and still make it BW. control over driving is bad tho...

also going to work in a normal spinner, but not sure about design yet.

sorry for double post, but while having been busy with making an AW spinner, i got the havocing problem again. it just starts to havoc when it spawns in the test area.
here a pic of the bot, maybe you guys can spot something that causes the havoc.

You could add 2 more spikes...

About the havok, copals and big wheels make havoks.

powerrave · « **Reply #13 on:** February 24, 2010, 04:45:47 PM »

was still busy, was also just toying around. still, this is a more serious version. but i think the copals are pretty unstable drive motors as i get most of the havocs when i use those. freightbox doesn't havoc at all but further...

Which armour?

powerrave · « **Reply #15 on:** February 25, 2010, 01:15:36 PM »

i thought something like steel but can't remember how much mm. i'll look when i think about it, to lazy now.

I can get sufficient power for a Mag and 2 Astros for 3 minutes on 2 ants...

Naryar · « **Reply #17 on:** February 26, 2010, 05:36:16 AM »

Sufficient electotal, not sure... Sufficient torque, probably not.

powerrave · « **Reply #18 on:** February 28, 2010, 04:14:36 PM »

since the BW tourney has started, i think. time to really show what i entered.

i think the armour was 3 or 5 mm titanium. not sure. but as far as i see this bot has some potential.

I like it, though I feel grippier wheels would suit it better.
