It only needs 6 ants, dude (8 maximum). You could probably upgrade to tite 5 or something.

Any chance of a shot from the back? =)

And I think some of the attachment points of some components are a little off, like the Extra Small Multi Extender. I reckon Backlash Discs should be fine like that. How damaging is it?

*facepalm*
Well that requires a rebuild if I do say so myself. Totally forgot the whole one ant per motor thing. :P

Armor does not seem to important here as much as more blades. I will see what I can do with a chassis redesign, maybe a switch to Perm 80s and another motor or two and see where that goes. Probably will come tomorrow at some time.

time for SB !

Apart from that it looks decent enough.

Yeah not really... It takes about two minutes to kill anything. Far too long for a serious DSL bot. If my sister would get off the goddamned computer I could finish the new version of it and see how it does...

Ripper of Guts 2
2 Perm 132s
4 NPC Fasts
10 Ants
4 Mechavore Discs
Steel 3 (Maybe...?)
I've spent 5 hours today building sawbots. And this is my best. FML.

Naryar · « **Reply #526 on:** July 06, 2010, 12:48:58 PM »

It looks even worse than the NAR AI Grim Ripper

Somebody · « **Reply #527 on:** July 06, 2010, 01:20:04 PM »

And its the best one so far...

Any suggestions maybe???

Naryar · « **Reply #528 on:** July 06, 2010, 01:27:04 PM »

Remove 2 ants, get hypnos, that wedge looks like it fails (trust Night Terror for this)

...AND STEEL 3 ??? You have... is that roughly 2 years experience with DSL and you use STEEL 3 ???

Somebody · « **Reply #529 on:** July 06, 2010, 02:19:12 PM »

Titanium 3
793.6
Changed wheels
Added horizontal stabilizers (it would tip over without the discs even running when turning)

If I remove 2 ants, its underpowered (8 ants for drive, 2 for the 2 motors)

Naryar · « **Reply #530 on:** July 06, 2010, 02:20:23 PM »

It needs 6 ants minimum.

Somebody · « **Reply #531 on:** July 06, 2010, 02:27:54 PM »

1 Perm 132 = 1
1 Perm 132 = 1
1+1=2

1 NPC-T64 Fast =2 (Because we fully power the drive, right? Please say yes so I don't feel more stupid today...)
2x4 = 8
2+8=10

Oh wait this belongs in the general math thread...

NO !!!

At least, you don't need to fully power the drive. 2 ant batteries per spin motor is really when you have plenty of weight remaining. 1 per motor is minimum, but 1 1/5 is fine (aka 3 ants for a 2WD rammer)

Somebody · « **Reply #533 on:** July 06, 2010, 02:34:11 PM »

OK so if I take off 2 batteries (or 4 possibly), any suggestions to use for the weight?

Naryar · « **Reply #534 on:** July 06, 2010, 03:07:45 PM »

Keep it to 8. Minimum.

My ELBITE Bots

Shoop

Da

Da uses Stanley's chassis, but weapons are on a TWM3R2.

Whoop

JoeBlo · « **Reply #536 on:** July 24, 2010, 09:04:47 AM »

so you invented floating flags IRL? :P

Somebody · « **Reply #537 on:** July 24, 2010, 09:07:12 AM »

Nope there is a microscopically thin but strong-as-steel carbon fiber nanotube holding it. Its one micron across, so you cannot see it. Nearly impenetrable

Happy?

JoeBlo · « **Reply #538 on:** July 24, 2010, 09:12:39 AM »

well its not as bad as Nar-mour so I am.

More than 60kgs on a piglet?
