Is Steel 1 worth losing 1cm off the Anti-immobiliser?

No, it would be too short.

I would say it's probably fine. Since your setup is asymmetric (and packs a Perm), it probably needs less time to self-right. Try testing it out yourself.

Yes, I made a video for my next robot...

EDIT: oops, this has the slightly overweight version in it, I downgraded the rear skirt to poly to solve this.

Pwnator · « **Reply #825 on:** April 11, 2011, 08:42:51 AM »

lol I don't think the rear sheet is doing anything at all. :P

It stops it getting stranded on its back so it can self right better.

posted on YT but you already made that.. ok :)

This is probably my entry for NQRW if it goes ahead. I didn't want something too destructive and anyway this can't seem to get under anything anyway:

So Titanium 1 (:S)
9 ants
2 Judge bursts (that's what T-Minus uses)
Done mainly for the looks.

It looks like it rupts ever so slightly in the bot lab.

Industrial Green Machine:

Plastic 10 (:o)

FOTEPX · « **Reply #834 on:** April 13, 2011, 06:41:22 AM »

Ooh, interesting. I thinnk you might have a few too many ants, though. Also, a little law I invented: If you se more that Titanium 5, you probably aren't usinng your bot's full DP (Damage Potential). Whether you want to go with that law, however, is up to you.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #835 on:** April 13, 2011, 06:45:57 AM »

Yeah, I was going to add more weaponry but this is a flipper so it doesn't really help. Also, it's 2 1/2 ants per BSG. 2 1/2 x 8=20. 1 per spin motor, 2x1=2. 2+20=22 ants. Anyway Plastic 10 is only just heavier than Titanium 5.

Ideally for being slightly more weight efficient you want a battlepack per burst (due to their 2 1/2 ant output) but overall they're to large to be good in this sort of chassis. Worth a go if you want slightly more weight free though.

That thing looks amazing!

How do you achieve chassis like that with the tcg?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #839 on:** April 14, 2011, 06:18:10 AM »

Pro skills. You can expand the 4 rectangle points and then move the other points manually to save having to think too much about it before hand. I thought I showed you anyway!
But it doesn't matter now my computer is bust again.
