C chassis are pretty useless.
 
I'd consider expanding the rear to get some weight, then use it for better armour and stuff.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Expanding the rear gets no weight. This chassis with plastic 5 is 34.8 kg. A rectangular one on the same footprint with plastic 5 is 39.2 kg. That 4.4 kg swing would be enough to vault me into HW territory.

Therefore, C chassis are quite useful if you can use the well :P

Chassis shape to KG hardly matters since chassis HP is determined by efficiency*KG.  A rectangle chassis tends to be easier to protect and armor externally, but in this case it doesn't matter.

Quote from: The RA2 Wiki
3 WHEELS: you are on crack 8P

WELL THEN I GUESS I AM ON CRACK.
 

 
Before anyone asks, it drives straight. 3 NPC fasts, 8 ants, I have no idea what the armour is, and everything else is visible. Made mostly because I just wanted to make a non-SnS with 3 wheel drive.
 
 
Also, a really generic HW shell spinner that I normally wouldn't showcase. Except, note how the flails are mounted so close together:
 

 
Most of them (7 of the 9) actually did not allow themselves right away, like so:
 

 
However, I found that by merely floating my cursor slowly over the flail, the flail would flash in and out of red, enabling me to attach it when my cursor was over certain places, and not when it was over others. In itself, this method of "stacking" is completely useless, as the eFFe glitch is much, much easier, but does this mean that attachment points are really like tiny chassis baseplates where components can be shifted around by your cursor? I know 123stw posted something like this recently - perhaps this is a proof-of-concept for his findings.
 
Comment away!

I don't quite get the side metal hinges. Having them static and just extending the middle wedge seems more logical.

And no anti-immobilizer on the shell :O

About that odd axle attachment... I had a similar thing happen when attaching flails to Circle of Thorns III. For some reason mouse placement has an effect on attachment. I wonder why?
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

New stuff yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

A (cubic) LW flipper. Probably won't use it for CC4, but I'm pretty sure this is the smallest possible chassis in Clash Cubes - just large enough to fit an ant.

5 ants, I think Ti 3. Hinges are acting as stabilizers. Even with their collision mesh, they're useless as underbelly armour:



And a hammer, simply because me > Scrap (psssshhh... I wish >.>).

12 ants, plastic 5:
