That’s it. The less traction, the more reliable the WS is, and the less prone it is to getting stuck.I’m considering armoring hte wheels. Thanks for that.Just use regular wheels and make it a HS with actual controlled movementIf I don’t want it to be a WS, yes. I can just modify the controls, and switch the drums to wheels.

Use actual wheels for the drive to save weight, switch the weapon to a flatmotor (it's found using cheatbot2, should be the second to last motor with cheatbot2 enabled), get rid of the beaters, as they don't help one bit. and switch the weapon to a long DSL bar. Bang, you have traction, more reach, and more weapon power iirc.
Okay, I just built a ton of WS and basic IRL bots. I'll display them later.
Okay, so few stuff:Popups dont really work on DSL IRLSaw motor needs support to kinda cover it upHypno teeth is nowhere near as powerful as Typhoon teethnot bad tbh

I could build a working copy of it out of legos. It just doesn't do as much damage as an unrealistic popup, and functions more like a flipper in IRL...
IRL popup is more like a weapon flipper
Quote from: WenXiangLee on January 24, 2019, 08:31:56 AMIRL popup is more like a weapon flipperagreed.I'd prefer if your "pop-up" was just a straight up flipper that uses extenders to make the flipper. Also, there are extender anchors that weigh 4 kgs. Try using those to save a little space and see if you can fit a VDMA in for the flipper. I'd say the battery power can be brought down to 2 blacks to help the weight. The shirts are generally frowned upon in IRL, so I'd suggest using the wedgelets in the weapons tab instead. Finally, please make your armor/skin more aesthetically pleasing. They aren't the most atrocious things in the world, but IRL is largely about looks.
It's a weaponed flipper. It's fine for IRL purposes as long as it's not too popup-y
Pretty decent attempt at a big wedge flipper. Honestly would be my favorate bot you've made if it wasn't for the out of place twighlight image on the top of it.
