Do you reckon it would be best to scrap the paintjob?

This is not a question for me to answer. You have your own aesthetical sense.

And does snapper loading work pretty much the same in Stock?

Yes, why would it change ? DSL shares exactly the same core mechanics as stock. DSL is just stock with new armors, components, bots, skins and arenas.

Oh and is the copal the best motor to use?

I find it the best because the copal's axle easily goes out of it's socket, yes. But astroflights are as good as copals in overall.

Maybe copals would be better than astros because they're lighter, and it seems that heavy attachments have more difficulty going off axle in snapper load.

DP. Snapper loaded 5 teeth on, removed wheel guards and bar completely, 2 ants, Aluminium 5, lower skirt is poly and the upper skirt is titanium.



Also. OMG NEW BOT.

Well, not really. Just had it kicking around. It was supposed to be IRL Realistic but I got carried away with the overly small chassis. Ah well. Steel 3, 3 ants and NPC normals.

Try angled poly skirts for stabilizers and you can also use a DSL bar instead of 2 segments to hold the TWM3R.

Ah, ok. Use skirt hinges for the stabilisers, I assume?

nononononononodont that will make it too bouncy. Just remove the angled segments and place angled skirts on the same spots and angle them down a bit.

Make the chassis the width of the skirts to make it more IRL.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Wammer's looking very nice. You just need to be wary of it tilting back when an opponent hits those teeth.

HS could probably be made with poly extenders, as Pwn said. You could also probably get away with a Shark's tooth for invertibility, that'd keep the weapons closer to the ground and help against wedges.

NFX: Where to put the shark's tooth? On the weapon's DSL bar? It's invertible, anyway.

I have updated the HS however, thanks Pwn:



Skin on wammer will come soon.

You could attach the poly skirts directly to the ME's. You might have to reposition the ME's to have them pointing outwards properly, but it would save 4kg. And put the Shark's Tooth in place of the Typhoon Spike. Same weight, but lower weaponry. If it begins skittering along the ground, try a Matilda tooth, or Light DS Tooth.

It looks not too bad. But I might attach the Small Wedges directly to the Skirt hinge, and swap for some grippier wheels, either Hypnos or DSL Wheels.

I failed it doing it properly. Would snapper loading it be deemed as IRL?

Axle Loading them onto the Skirt Hinge would probably work, yeah.
