Thoughts?
You can make the chassis a lot smaller, battle axes are terrible weapons, the DSL bar setup is pretty pointless and it's attached to an unneeded extender. You don't need the third battery (the smaller black one) in there at all.
What I would do is shrink up the chassis and put the NPCs as far as you can outside the chassis. Then use a skirt hinge to attach to hammers in front of the chassis, which would allow you to use a ME to mount the flamethrower behind them inside the chassis.

Hmm, I'll try,

Looks pretty cool. You're starting to get the hang of this IRL stuff.
Thanks! That means a lot   :mrgreen:

I honestly don't know, it was more of an experiment but because of the rule of 7 some bits look fragile, I'm going to mess around with it and see if I could improve it in any way shape or form, but it was meant to be IRL, if you would class it like that

It can self-right and tbh if it wasn't for the rule of 7, I could make it better looking and supported

Who gives a crap if it's standard or IRL ? The design in itself is important, not the style.

Needs more weapons (single pickaxes), more drive as well. your extender work looks messy, clean up the bot.

i do believe this full body hammer needs a beta burst as well

It can self-right and tbh if it wasn't for the rule of 7, I could make it better looking and supported

bfe

also pretty sure you can STILL do it correctly, i mean burst motor- 3 extenders - motor-wheel  should be fine...

That's silly. It is a full body hammer, and advice isn't strictly defined in IRL and Standard modes.

There is a kind of advice which works for every bot in ra2, whatever the mod, which I just gave him.
