The larger CB is actually lighter than the smaller one, so that'll save you a kilo of weight, which could make quite a difference. Something else you could do is make the back of the chassis narrower to have the NPC's right up beside each other. The ants could be in groups of three above each other at the front of the bot, that'll let you have a smaller chassis, which will save you a bit more weight.

if you rotate the npc's 180 degrees you can have them sticking out halfway out of the chassis then you can probably reduce chassis size
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Use the large control board.

Rubbers are bit weak in DSL, I recommend to use Vlads. Also You could use lighter extender work on the wedges.
Those are shines, not rubbers. :P
Whoops.. ^^'
and your wrong jonzu, there is no reason for him to switch to vlads

How's that?
Titainium extenders changed to alu ones, wheel placement altered, new Control Board and an extra ant battery.
So now it's a little bit overpowered, but it's better to be that than underpowered.

Shrink the chassis so the npc's stick out a bit (they're invincible anyway, might aswell use that) and swap the disks for hexplates and get more weapons, i doubt this is enough. and change the extenders on the wedges to flipper segments

or just swap to razors and get one in the middle of the disks
DSL Showcase
is this bot don't lost all razors in a fight before do a damage thought

Do medium BBs weigh more than razors, or am I wrong?

I don't like razors that much to be honest. They break too easily.

They might break easily but they are a LOT more damaging. Hence why they're so popular with popups. The chances are you'll take off your opponent's weapons with razors a lot quicker than you will with beaters.

It's nice, but I feel like you can have more weight for "armour" around the sides (and maybe a larger chain on the weapon) if you use Metal Hinges instead of Burst Motors. I thought Burst Wedges were a Stock thing anyway?

That's actually what I was thinking of doing, because the BSGs were supposed to help
the robot right itself when flipped, but they don't work so well.

Well you can probably shrink the chassis such that the wheels are closer to the back of the robot. If they're big enough, it will be "invertible" and can drive around. If you drive into a wall the momentum might take you back over to the right side.
Or you can just have a BSG+Polycarb Extender Schrimech >>

But yes. A smaller chassis, a longer chain on the weapon (and maybe a longer weapon to match), and probably some protection on the front ramp. you have protection so disregard that.
