The DSL Super Efficient Designs of The Ounce

[Scrap Daddy]

looks good but these motors have horrible HP iirc and are pretty exposed.

[NFX]

It's the Perm 80's that have rubbish HP (400 IIRC), but I think 132's have 8,000 HP, amirite?

Personally, I really like that weapon setup. If it were me, I'd have tried to put them both on the same motor. I might have possibly used something other than flipper segments, maybe Overkills for more HP, and lightened the armour slightly, but it's still a very good design, in my view.

youarrite

And no, no overkills for this bot.

It looks really good anyways !

[MassimoV]

Looks pretty neat. Do the hammers spin the same waay or opposite directions?

Opposite directions, as ounce stated. Both spin counterclockwise if my intuition is right.

Maybe I can try sometime similar but with flails and razors.

Now that signups are closed I can safely showcase my RA2TC entry, Mercurius:

NPC fasts, 3 Large JXs, 3 PC545s, 5 ants, and 5mm plastic.

It took some work to perfect the wedges and stability, but in the end it was very worth it.  Consistently wedgy in the Flextop and other arenas, does decent damage for a flipper, and flips well for having only 3 JXs.

[Vertigo]

Awesome bot :D

[FOTEPX]

You took Invertigo...

And made it so it didn't suck!?
 

Well done, man, but I really think Vlads or Sir k's would be better.

[Pwnator]

Vlads

Most likely no. Normals play an important part here.

Sir k's

And most definitely not. There's a 10kg difference for a reason.

No, he made a flipper. People don't base every flipper on your Invertigo.

[The Ounce]

5mm titanium, 6 ants, 4 NPC fasts, and 2 halfsheets on the bottom.

Somewhat inspired by Harcsa's Greenpierce, this rammer handles gutrippers very well with its top and bottom armor and high-HP weaponry.  Can withstand attacks from HNM4 and even managed to KO Time Bomb once.  I used Vlads for the front because I wanted to be original, and add more weapons; don't worry, it's still fast and drives well.

[Stagfish]

Shouldnt you put the more damaging weapons in front to score more points and more damage early on?

What are you talking about ? All hammers have the same DP.

Anyways, it looks good.

[Scorpion]

Love it 
I like the idea of using vlads at the front quite a bit actually, I imagine that'd allow the front end to be closer to the ground and therefore more able to damage wedges.
With the vlads though, does it steal deal with being flanked well enough?

[NFX]

Looks quite good, I think. Do the hammers sometimes tip forward and lift the Technos off the ground?

Really? :o

That was my main worry as well, but with the size of the Vlads it should be good.

[123savethewhales]

I think you might be able reduce the chassis for that by sinking the front in a V shape.  This is mainly for reducing the damage taken by popups.
