I can't really tell if it's built for IRL or not.

It totally is...

I can't really tell if it's built for IRL or not. Good use of Beta components, though, it does look very nice, and I'm assuming the disc doesn't cut through the motor. How's it for self-righting?
How does it not look IRL?
The disc teeth scrap literally 1mm through the motor, I'm sure this could be thinned IRL. It self rights fine, either by reversing disc direction or by using the DirectionalSpinner.py method.

It's largely the lack of supports for the perm, in my view. It's just been plonked on top and left there. One supporting strut on either side for the axle's also going to perhaps see it bend a bit too much. Maybe I'm being a bit picky, I prefer seeing sturdy-looking IRL bots, personally, but I still think you should do something about the perm there.

All the force of the weapon goes through the axle, not the motor, so it doesn't exactly need much bracing. Upon impacts, the weapon pushes down pretty much in the direction of my supports.

looks fragile against sns hs etc

is there anything to help counter those ?
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Top notch. I wonder if you could use wheels increasing in size to make it invertible? That would look mega.

The problem is a lack of "themed" wheels of increasing size.
It's also kind of invertable.

Maybe you could make some custom skin wheels, paint them all black and give them the same hub design. Still a great bot though.

Far too much effort on my part :P
And it's nice how it is IMO, invertability is overrated.

Looking cool. Love that exoskeleton framework too. Would it be possible to add some extenders down those front corners behind the drum?
