Which ones? All of them are either light heavweights, decently weighted cruiserweight or very light superheavyweights
I shouldn't have come here

Looks decent. However, just wondering, but do you have RA2CF? Because it looks like that hammer's motor is fully exposed, which looks ugly and a bit un-IRL. If you have RA2CF, you could at least make the motor partially inside the chassis. Also, the wedge edge pointing out from the wedge is ugly, so you should put those angled sides on the opposing side and turn them around until they are flush with the edge.

Also, you should build to the weight limit. You could make it as close to the CW (which has 600kg limit) weight limit as possible. And finally, what is the armor, as well as internal pics of the bot?

If you have enough weight for the hammer bot, try using a Beta Burst/Geared. Then with any remaining weight if it's still under 600kg protect that burst in any way you can.

Sagaris' advice is sound. You 100% have the weight to use a beta or even just a burst

General tips, always try to build up to the weight limit. You can always have more drive, weapons or amour depending on the design and what it needed. On each wedge, you have the angled sides upside down. You want to have them reach the end of the wedge edge.

Grabber - You'll probably need more weaponry on the end of the claw, and maybe a bigger burst depending on your space available.

Hammer - Sagaris covered this, a beta geared with some counterweights or a burst will be much better than a JX. Giving more power per swing.

Wedge - Add more defense to the wedge. Not much else to say about it.

Or better yet, an overkill motor

That new Bitter is actually really good! Rusty needs some chassis improvement, to be honest.

Thats not legal at all imo, the ring needs to be either closer to the chassis or just use a solid disc, just my 2 cents.

I think you should change the teeth on Rusty, they don't look good, aren't good for damage and look flimsy.

As for the ring spinner, it's boring by design. It's also underweight even for a CW (600). Upgrade it's drive and give it a better paintjob
