Yeah, I know i'm kinda short on power on Final Frontier, but I don't know what to downgrade in order to get the weight for more ants.
Oh and here are the insides on anarchy

Yeah, I know it's not very tight

I'll tighten up tommorow maybe.

And ofcourse it's named after the maiden song, all my bots are named after songs

Make the front armour lighter?
And I hate Bruce's voice, he flies out of tune too often. I'll stick to Judas Priest.

Judas Priest has faster/better riffs and a bearable vocalist.
Judas Priest >>>>>>>>> Iron Maiden
I wouldn't mind it so much if it wasn't for Bruce.

Faster doesn't equal better.
Besides, I'd probably agree with you for maidens early stuff, but their newer stuff is brilliant!

Anyway, better stop this discussion before nar or joeblo come in and complain at us ;P

This, I was expecting.
Any comments though Nar? ;P

You could switch to straight wedges, or angled polys. That'll get you the spare kgs you need for another ant.

Scorpion · « **Reply #190 on:** November 01, 2010, 11:49:16 AM »

Straight wedges?
What do you mean by that?

NFX · « **Reply #191 on:** November 01, 2010, 12:26:44 PM »

Straight panels, rather than angled ones.

Scorpion · « **Reply #192 on:** November 01, 2010, 01:14:17 PM »

Well I wanted angled wedges to cover the sides a bit better.

I downgraded the armour to plastic 3 so I could keep the aluminum front skirts and it has 16 ants now, which I believe is enough power for it.

NFX · « **Reply #193 on:** November 01, 2010, 01:22:47 PM »

16's kinda overdoing it, in my view. I thought it was one ant per spin motor, so technically this only needs 5. I'd give it 8 at the most, personally.

Scorpion · « **Reply #194 on:** November 01, 2010, 01:31:15 PM »

IIRC the big batteries are equivalent to about 8 ants.
8x4=32 add the 16 gives you the equivalent of 48 ants
minus 2 for the drive and that leaves 46 ants for the beta's which take up 21 and that means 4 more ants than strictly necessary.

So yeah, probably could get away with one or two less ants, but there's not much I could do with the extra weight saved really.

NFX · « **Reply #195 on:** November 01, 2010, 01:33:17 PM »

Beta? I thought we were talking about the one with the 6-Mag Disc with the hammers on it.

Scorpion · « **Reply #196 on:** November 01, 2010, 02:12:05 PM »

Mo, look on the page before that, I posted the spinner with another design that's a bit better made the, the spinner was a very quick build for funsies TBH.
16 ants on that? You don't think i'm that nooby do you?

Scorpion · « **Reply #197 on:** November 05, 2010, 06:06:56 PM »

Possible CC 4 entry?

It deals A LOT of damage which i'm quite pleased about, could be a bit weak defence wise though...

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #198 on:** November 05, 2010, 06:13:21 PM »

Looks pretty good, Scorp. My only concern is the size of its wheels in relation to the body size and that armour. If a well-armoured flipper hits that, it's done.
