I'm imagining that's beater bars on the weapon. What are the side panels on the left used for?

Extra armor cause the left side of the cube is left open to HS attacks

Is it just me or are the beater bars not rotated properly?

I'm thinking the same...

They do look rotated at a somewhat curious angle. I suspect it's so the Beater attached to the disc doesn't fall off first and take the other perfectly fine one with it.

They do make a weird illusion but I like the bot.

Yea I was lazy with the weapons, but it failed for other reasons, like stability, speed, and power.

My biggest enemy when building anything that spins, Somehow they all bounce like crazy :P
So I stay for popups, Wich cant really be unstable

Whoa a DSL bot from sage.

For a failbot, it looks pretty good. Probably too much weight on too small of a weapon motor though. (10kg beaters right?)

A better weapon setup is to put beaters on the edge disc attach points by the end attach point, and more beaters on the face disc attach points by the side attach point. That way they both hit at the same time and if one breaks, it won't take the other with it.

Tried to fix the failbot. Made it better but still gets knocked upside down way too easy and then can't battle worth beans.

Oh well back to stock

Woah that's like rammer-class weapons. On a VS. Scary... if it was stable.

You'd have to use a wee bit less weapon weight in order to make it more stable though.

Still looks pretty cool.

Sage · « **Reply #231 on:** February 26, 2011, 04:21:00 PM »

possible BTTB4 entry?

pretty much the DSL N00Bot. Built a chassis and the put stuff inside of it. 12 (?) ants, steel 1.

You're using shell panels for protection ? There is better.

Though if it is for the rule of cool, it is fine.

NFX · « **Reply #234 on:** February 26, 2011, 04:36:14 PM »

I love the use of shell panels for protection. I think Sheck panels aren't given enough credit outside of a FSS. 'Tis quite a big chassis, though, but depending on the wedginess, I reckon it'll do alright.

And that looks totally cool.

fuuuuuuuu

anyways, tried to build a MW version of Death of Angels for Nary's global conquest thing. Looks nice but for some reason can't do damage for crap. Maybe not enough batteries?

steel 1, 397.1, npc fasts

Cause it's not Zapper :P

nah it is one. Funny how none of my true popups are as powerful as my standard popups.

Bot actually needs 2 more batteries to be fully powered, as BSG's take 2.5 ants.
