Not a fan personally. Kinda just looks like a more disappointing version of angstorm. I think maybe just give it more shape, instead of just a box, with a wedge and an arm. Tho it's neat that you got the slot for the arm itself.

Prolly the angle I took the screenshot from but I can't really say I agree with it looking even remotely like Angstrom

Looks great. Like Hop said, that side angle really helped show it ad more unique. I like the arm setup, but would kinda want more color.

The mag version can and is basically better in every way (also has more armour) apart from being less cool

Starting on my Robogames 2 bots. Got my CW and HW done so far. CW is basically a mini version of Speed Demon. 2WD instead of 4 with TWMR2 drive, and a single perm 132 for the disc instead of dual perm 80s. Actually probably works better than the HW version because it doesn't seem to flip itself over whenever it runs into anything.

For the HW I took the concept of Sabre and tried to actually make it into a somewhat competitive design. Much wider and with internal wheels instead of exposed ones, along with having a flipper powered by 2 storm bursts instead of 1. Frontal armour is steel while the rest is aluminium.

Double post but here's another for RG2. This time a MW. Wanted to do a tri pronged bar HS initially but couldn't get it to work so I made it a tri pronged bar VS. Fairly happy with it other than that though. Perm 80 for the weapon so not the most potent. Slimbodies for drive so  not the quickest either. 397.something KG and plastic 5 chassis armour.

Boy these last few bots have gone down a treat  :dance:...

Here's another one since thew reception has been so good on the last few. Superheavyweight for Robogames 2. Dual beta burst flipper. Drive is 2 TWMR2s and 2 regular TWMRs so speed is okay but not stellar. Battery life is likely to not be great as it only has 4 battlepacks and 2 ants in there. Armour is largely steel with some areas of titanium and a polycarb panel on the back purely because it looks cool. One issue is that I forgot to give it chassis armour so I'll have to fix that via BFE before I enter it otherwise it will die hella quick even though it has a bottom panel because RA2 is weird like that.

looks really solid. I think using triangle plates would have made some nice holes for the wheels but that eats up more weight I guess

Not really sure what you mean TBH.

Made a lil update by adding some steel angle pieces to the edge of the flipper which I think makes it look a bit cooler. Still need to give it some chassis armour but I'm pretty much happy with how it looks now.

That is real neat, good job. Can it actually get under anything that doesn't have a huge ground clearance in practice though?
also lol at most toxic guy around calling others out on this sh**

It's surprisingly not completely atrocious. By no means a great wedge but not as bad as you'd think.
