Jury Duty:

give us a full view. The lack of support for the hammer arm when resting looks kinda sh**, as do the casters at the front. And the casters just hanging on threads at the back tbh. I think you cols make cool bots if you stopped trying to force them to be so battle efficient.

Fixed it up a bit. It does now have a lack of frontal armor though.

you're using too mught weight. Switch the frenzy hammer for a self-made one, reduce the extenderwork, maybe move the drive further back so you don't need the casters. A totally flat chassis is really lame too.

As a few people know, the next Redditbots is LW. I tried making a LW Spinner, ended up making a MW Spinner.

Not the best, but its a good concept.
If I make the robot itself longer, removing the extra side stuff, and change the weapon and motor, I should be able to make it LW.

Yeah. Its a quick half hour bot.

Edit: I am going to take a small break from DSL, kinda on a creative downfall.

I don't understand how you managed to make a Tombvore robot so badly. The motor has negative protection, the chassis looks dumb, and the weapon support basically isn't there.

Well there's your answer

Because I am creatively burned out, I am keeping more entrees on this thread on hold. If I post a tech before this timer runs out you have permission to slap me in forum.

i like jury duty, you could use a bit less battery and light wheels to get a form of frontal protection. i wouldnt swap from a frenzy hammer since making your own from parts weighs around the same and would be less effective and i kinda dig the casters on the back for an oldschool vibe

So realism and lack of design aesthetic aside, how do any of these hold up in combat?

Baconus_Yum · « **Reply #172 on:** December 24, 2016, 03:48:55 PM »

Someone Slap Me.

Anyways, MakeshiftHelecopterWithNoTail

248.8 KG, could reduce the weight a bit by changing the actual chassis armor, but actually not at that much lack of weight. The only thing I think is wrong is that the motor sticks out at one end, but I would just have to rotate it a bit to make it fit.

Badger · « **Reply #173 on:** December 24, 2016, 03:53:06 PM »

Reduce the length of those armour panels, and use the angled panels on the edges. Doesn't look too bad apart from that.

09090901 · « **Reply #174 on:** December 24, 2016, 03:54:42 PM »

make it so that the battery isn't sticking out the bottom

I was thinking more like a 3-ring binder chassis with spikes reskinned to look like pencils sticking out of the front while the ruler spins overhead.
