Might as well post this here too:

Some are a bit weird.

First 3= Not so good
Next 3= Pottential for some really good bot

Looks like an excellent series of bots you have there. I like the design of Mine-dless, and Mine-ator especially. Nice work.

Only Plastic 5, but has a large chassis to compensate.

Why the carbon extenders?

NFX · « **Reply #665 on:** January 02, 2011, 09:25:52 PM »

Now that's interesting. A flipper with some curiously positioned Face Spinners...I'd want to move the FS inwards a little, I'm not entirely sure they're going to hit anything way up there.

1. They cant go any further in.
2. They are designed to rip off wedges, armour and wheels.

Interesting tactics there, flip and pin against the wall I assume?
Why not use the big battery in the middle instead of all those ants to save some weight.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #668 on:** January 03, 2011, 05:51:34 AM »

No room, and 123 says ants are best anyway.

Scorpion · « **Reply #669 on:** January 03, 2011, 05:58:06 AM »

Really? Oh, it just looked like the perfect fit for a big battery.
I swear that the big battery is more economical, but if 123 says ants are best... *goes to check* Nope, you save 9kg for using a big battery instead of the equivalent amount of ants.

My dear 123, don't you think PC625's do exist for a reason ?
So you can skip by them?

They aren't worth it on normal DSL.

NFX · « **Reply #671 on:** January 03, 2011, 06:13:58 AM »

They are definitely worth it if you're powering a Beta Burst motor. 3 PC625's give out 180 amps for 90kg, the equivelant power in Ant Batteries would cost you 27kg more, and the chassis's still going to be just as big trying to fit them all in.

Scorpion · « **Reply #672 on:** January 03, 2011, 06:42:22 AM »

I don't know why 123 said that, maybe it's because most of his bots have small chassis' and therefore can't really fi them in.

If you've already made your chassis that big for the ~~rubbish~~ JX bursts, you may aswell try to fit them in though.

The other battery stats.

I will try and fit a large CB in sometime.

Half-Sheets aren't allowed.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #676 on:** January 04, 2011, 05:23:33 AM »

But it's not armour. :P

Naryar · « **Reply #677 on:** January 04, 2011, 05:33:12 AM »

It most definitely is. It is attached to the baseplate and does protect half of it in an invulnerable way.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #678 on:** January 04, 2011, 05:37:49 AM »

But so do multi extenders... what exactly can we use?

Extra small multis are useless as caster-like armor.
