2 extra beaters on a horizontal beater, I don't think is necessary. But cool upgrade, man - 's perfect.

I still don't understand why you guys say Multi-extenders are weak. They're even tougher than Titanium extenders in my opinion.

no they are not

When I first set out to make Mantis, I only gave it single beaters thinking it would be enough. Soon enough I found out the beaters flew off way too quickly, so put on a couple more beaters and solved the problem.

Don't know why but for whatever reason the multi-extenders work WAY better than the average extenders (Unless it's Steel)

I trust Naryar completely, but the multi-extenders just work better. Plus, I had to use it because the regular extenders had too big diameters.

Alright, the latest version of Mantis. Gave it lighter wheels, extra weight allowed me to slip in another ant. This is probably the last version of Mantis because I'm already pretty happy with it as it is now.


Hope BB7 is multibot friendly.

Battlebots shall never be multibot friendly. There are only two spawn points.

090901 is working on adding more spawn points. According to him, it works.

Yeah if he can get it to work and he sends me it, BB7 can have multibots. Obviously it won't be for a while though.

DSL bars may be better here.

Then again... they're just aesthetic sheningans, nothing that will stop you fighting.

Yeah that could be a looooooot better. I'll wait for SKBT though because he did a really epic one a while back.

Not bad as an IRL bot on its own.

That has to be one of the most accurate replicas I have ever seen. Sure beats mine.

What have I done?



Alright, one of the many issues with this bot is the wedge. Can't get under anything. And the weapon, not too sure I'll be sticking with the weapon, probably change it in a future update.

So, how do I fix the wedge?

Try lowering the wedge, put more drive power, and possibly use lower skirts. A larger weapon might also help. If it's not too much of a hassle, maybe use the "small chassis" glitch. I'm not very experienced, but it has helped me in the past.
Oh I'll be doing some banging.......
