Favorites are the SHW and the 3-pronged spinner, for sure. :)

Beginning to recover from my post-RG2 building burnout. Here's an underweight HW vert. Frontal armour is double layered steel so it should be an absolute tank. The rest is a mix of Ti and Alu. NPC fasts for drive and a perm 132 for the weapon. Fairly happy with how it came out other than the wheel clipping.

Here's the updated version anyway. Srimech is powered by a slow mag and could also act as a backup lifter if I added a smartzone for it. Also gave in to the meta on the weapon by switching to typhoon teeth which are lighter, more damaging and, IMO, better looking than the previous setup I had. All this brings it a lot closer to the weight limit as it now weighs 798.2KG

New version of The Apiarist after the performance of Version II in OW2. Main changes here are much faster drive (TWMR2s instead of regular TWMSs) and stronger frontal armour. Had to switch away from the yellow disc with 4 typhoon teeth to a microvore disc to get the weight to do it unfortunately, but I don't think it looks too too bad and the faster drive and better armour should help a lot in combat.

Looks really cool! The wings and weapon supports are especially nice. Is selfrighting still a bit shaky?  Also, aren't Mecha/Microvore spinners banned in OW?
That's true hadn't considered that. Guess I could go to a setup with 2 typhoon teeth instead of 4, or try to find a way to save a bit of weight for the next OW.

Well after much tinkering I think I found a setup that is OW legal and in weight. Turns out a disc with 4 typhoon teeth AGODs on this version anyway so even though I was able to find weight for it at 1 point during my tinkering it didn't work anyway. New setup with a 259 disc here seems to work though, though it's a bit ugly unfortunately.

replace the extenders that make up the middle of the wings with poly sheets?

I'm fairly sure even the narrowest poly panels are too wide to fit in the middle of the wings unfortunately.

Made some iterative improvements to Speed Demon to try to make it more effective. Dropped it to 4WD NPC regulars from fasts as the fasts caused it to flip over every time it rammed an opponent. The reduction in weight also allowed me to add some armour over the weapon motors. I also made the discs slightly smaller so that the teeth are more exposed and get a greater bite which should help it fight HSes which is a big weakness of the old one. Also gave it a much improved wedge too.
