I like it.

I'm assuming this is your BOTM entry ?

SKBT · « **Reply #801 on:** June 05, 2012, 03:07:46 PM »

nah, I've got something cooler for BOTM...

NFX · « **Reply #802 on:** June 05, 2012, 03:09:18 PM »

Looks pretty cool. So you just need some kind of a counterweight for the servos to lift stuff?

Pretty damn awesome.

FIRST inspired....

and yes I figured out how to lift stuff with servos...

Very very nice. I just made one with a big gate on it and a piston behind it. I put some weapons on it too so it could damage. Might make it again.

Awesomeness. Counterweights FTW

madman3 · « **Reply #808 on:** June 05, 2012, 04:22:35 PM »

Cool and fun, but last year I did the servo lifter thing with a FS style setup.
Still a very cool bot. You could try and make the counterweight a bit more visually appealing.

Natef · « **Reply #809 on:** June 05, 2012, 11:29:04 PM »

Can I see the insides of one of your IRL bots? I'm looking for some reference.

SKBT · « **Reply #810 on:** June 07, 2012, 04:14:51 PM »

Well... I tried to go to work today but I promptly learned that I wasn't working today... then I went home and built bot...

I blame MikeNCR for this idea

for Natef

Badnik96 · « **Reply #811 on:** June 07, 2012, 04:26:01 PM »

OK the new bot is amazing. You should AI all your HWs and do a tournament :D

NFX · « **Reply #812 on:** June 07, 2012, 04:32:48 PM »

I do like that new HW. Still not a fan of those spikes on the back, personally, I'd have gone for Med Beaters, perhaps. Rest of it looks fantastic, though.

Natef · « **Reply #813 on:** June 07, 2012, 04:41:51 PM »

Could I see one of a flipper?

Naryar · « **Reply #814 on:** June 08, 2012, 02:10:14 AM »

That drum needs moar reach. It's pretty cool though otherwise.

madman3 · « **Reply #815 on:** June 08, 2012, 04:54:03 AM »

Hey you made a cool IRL drum, never thought I'd see the day.
Looks good, despite the short reach. I'd try and get something a bit flatter to protect the piglets than the beaters you've atm, that might help with the reach.

SKBT · « **Reply #816 on:** July 11, 2012, 10:43:52 AM »

I made a bot without DSL bars and shell pannels????

and... it looks like something Scrap would build...

Mr. AS · « **Reply #817 on:** July 11, 2012, 10:48:04 AM »

can it even do damage? does it make a million razors fall from the sky or something?

does look cool and irl-ish though.

(this post was pretty dumb, so i edited it.)

SKBT · « **Reply #818 on:** July 11, 2012, 10:50:24 AM »

It has a flame thrower...
