Awesome angle spinner! What does it weigh and what armour is it using?

It weighs 794.3KG and has Al5 for armour (Not Ideal I know, but otherwise I had a lot of weight to spare and I didn't know what to use it on.)

thats a ridiculous amount of drive for a HS. Downgrade the drive and increase the weaponry i'd say.

How should I increase the weaponry? I tried to fit a Tornado Mer Gearbox but it wouldn't fit.

Made some changes to Finity. Enlarged the chassis slightly so that I can get a Tornado Mer Motor in there for the weapon. Downgraded the drive to regular NPCs. Sitting right on the weight limit at 799.2kg now. Also room for a 13 black-style double angled spinner arrangement, I'd just need to find the weight. Pics below:

Real slick.

A nice skin and that'd be top tier.

Thanks guys. Still very inexperienced with skinning. I'll try to work on something that looks decent but I doubt it'll compare to any of the skins I've seen on here.

pretty good. i like the outside armor. those wide af wheel constructions seem like a waste of weight to me compared to how they add to the aesthetics of the bot.

i'd maybe remove two wheels from each wheel construction, add a vertical extender so it can self right better and maybe a few spikes on the outside extender armor.

Here's another one. I've been experimenting with small chassis and making the majority of the bodywork out of DSL armour panels. Here is one of my attempts at that. It's called Virgil. 2X Large VDMA R/P pistons for weapon power, and 2X TWM3R2 Drives for Drive. Power is an absolute sh**load of ant batts, because they're the only thing that would fit. Pics below.

Originally had that but it was severely lacking in power.

Here's another one. It's called Ovid. Front hinged flipper with a body made almost entirely out of DSL armour plates. 2X NPC fasts for drive and 2X Storm Burst Motors for weapon power. I'm looking for some advice on how to make it look more unique, as it's looking pretty generic at the moment. A skin would probably go some way towards helping, but I've yet to learn how to skin components (Working on that) and even then my skinning skills are pretty damn poor. Any suggestions are more than welcome. Pics below:

Not bad. The easiest way to make it look less generic would be to use DSC's IRL Packs, they provide coloured extenders and armour panels that would make your bot look much less... grey.

Redone Ovid using DSC's IRL pack. Looks a lot better now methinks, but still feels like it's lacking a wow factor. Pics Below.

Another one. Not a Beta clone...honest. It's called Doktor Oktagon and has an axe that totally wasn't based off a certain hammer bot. 1X (totally not) Beta motor for the weapon, 2X TWM3R2 Drives for drive. Frontal armour is steel while the rest is Titanium. Pics below:
