Actually DSL wheels state Grippy in their description, so they are prtty good for 18kgs.

Definetly needs some serious chassis shinkage and additional weapons.

Unless thats a replica.

Hypnos are grippier for the same weight, and Vlads are lighter for the same grip.
They aren't a particularly bad choice but there are better choices.

That`s a bot mor for show than for combat. But if I will ever turn it into a combabot I`ll change the wheels to hypnos. Thanks for the advice.

This was my originaly entry for Ribbs IRL tournament. I was trying to add a rollbar on Bitequake.
It lost both of its battles cause of it`s weak flipping power.

another shellpinner. I need to get better with them since Impact did not real damage. It was the bot with the fastest driving speed in my showcase tourney.

As you can see it is a lightweight version of Spawn Again. It was the best flipper but it lost cause its flipperpenal fell of twice. The Spawn Again Replica I build for the RWW series 2 will have the same
shape.

Could someone please give me some improvement suggestions?

No Showcase Tourney thing this time around:



Any suggestions?
It also needs a name.

PS:
The wheels are for stabilizing.

Wasn`t there a bot with that name?

Do I have to change anything inside?

The bot you are thinking of is probably IWGS.

So I have to shrink the chassis, and make another SnS out of it?

It reached the same stage as my last CA entry. And it`s vs Sheer Death again.

My ant failed because of the arena and Jonzu didn't warned me at all of it being unsuited.

You still visibly don't know how to build an efficient bot _

If you had read the rules carefully you would`ve known it.

And may I don`t want to build "super effective overkiller" bots. may I want to keep my building style even when it`s not very effective.
