Scorpions Totally EEEEVIL Showcase

[Scorpion]

Well it's a rammer aswell (aparently:P) so it could ram to get the otther bot on top.
Just accept that I won the septuplet challenge Nar ;P

Well, although this is now masterz of the hybrid, turns out it gets easily beaten by shebeast 

[NFX]

Dude, that is brilliant. =D I don't care that it sucks, I'm just glad you beat Naryar's challenge.

[Naryar]

Seventuple hybrid is seventuple. This is not a seventuple hybrid :P

[Scorpion]

Seventuple hybrid is seventuple. This is not a seventuple hybrid :P

Eh?
What you talkin about Naryar?

Anyway, clash cubes experiment #212 a.k.a "The root of all evil"

Flamer SnS, looks pretty with the FIRE, may enter it, may not, depends on if I want something cool in or something effective in

Titanium 1 armour aswell BTW

[Clickbeetle]

It's easier to make massive hybrids if you make them asymmetrical.  See my Swiss Army Bot IV.  You could get rid of the face spinner and top spinner on one side, and replace them with a vertical spinner.


The SnS looks surprisingly good considering that there's 50 kgs eaten up by the mostly decorative flamers.

[Scorpion]

Hmm, I can't find a picture of swiss army bot IV, but I get what you're saying and i'll give it a try.
The more hybrids the better 

Thanks, but aren't flamethrowers only 20kg ;P
And is it worth downgrading the armour to try and put some wedges on there?

Hey, post 1500 and I almost didn't even notice!

[NFX]

Wedges on an SnS? Surely you jest!

For an SnS, is it not kinda slow with only Slimbody Drive?

[Scorpion]

I thought wedges might make it more stable and...I don't know 

Well, it seems to be quite fast with the slimbodys, I remember trying it with mag drive and npc drive and IIRC it meant a fair bit of empty space though.

I could try again with the mag drive I suppose though, if you think that's a good idea (i'd probably have to weaken the armour though)

[Naryar]

Yes it is slow, and the 50kgs Click is talking about is 2 flamers + 1 small air tank.

Aww, I thought I was being pedanticly annoying 
Anyway, i'll fix this later, I've got to go uptown now in arctic conditions. Yay.

[JoeBlo]

technically it is 40kg on decorative flamethrowers + 10kg on space waster airtanks :P

[Scorpion]

Well, it looks pretty, and that's all I ever wanted ;P

Anyway, i'll go put better drive on it now I guess.

[Scorpion]

*growl*
Well, I need some help with this one

The thing with this one was to be a better mako, WITH FIRE!!!
Anyway, the problem is that the wedges SUCK.
The force of the spinners makes it bounce forward a bit so anyother wedges just slot under it 

[Pwnator]

Rear stabilizers remedy most of the bounciness. But you need LARGE ones for that, which might hinder self-righting.

The thing is it's bouncing forward, defying many laws of physics 
Anyway, i'll try a rear stabiliser, see if that helps.

[Pwnator]

defying many laws of physics 

Actually, it doesn't (surprisingly).

Weapon weight and reaction from spinning tips the bot forward (a bit), and it either tips backward or makes a couple of front flips. Having an extremely wide stance dissipates the reaction and subsequently requires an extremely large force to make it unstable (which is usually made possible when you're fighting Dual Perms).

[Scorpion]

Hmm, so could I make it wider to stop the bouncing?

I just added a 80 cm sheet on a skirt hinge on the back and, while it was a bit more stable, even mako could get under it 

[Pwnator]

Static stabilizers are more reliable than movable ones.

[Scorpion]

Grr, i've got a static stabilizer on it now, and mako still gets under it and beats it
 

[Pwnator]

AGOD?
