Quite a lot of empty space in there, I feel. Somebody is right about the weapons, too. Is it invertible?

Thyrus · « **Reply #281 on:** August 14, 2010, 04:32:06 AM »

yeah it is invertible. What do you mean with "line up the weapons"?

JoeBlo · « **Reply #282 on:** August 14, 2010, 04:55:24 AM »

say if the robot hit the wall only some of the weapons would hit

making them all even increases damage

Thyrus · « **Reply #283 on:** August 14, 2010, 05:55:22 AM »

I try to fix that as good as I can. Empty space is needed IMO since the weapons are pretty heavy and so the chassis is the balance weight but will try to make a smaller chassis.
@NFX: VQ2 had a quite lot empty space as well ;P

NFX · « **Reply #284 on:** August 14, 2010, 07:07:21 AM »

Yes, yes it did. And it won.

You can make the chassis smaller, maybe stick all the batts at the back as a sort of counterweight. VQ3 doesn't have any rear protection, and it still performs alright. The front wheels are in front of the center of gravity of the bot, so it runs on all four wheels.

Thyrus · « **Reply #285 on:** August 14, 2010, 07:43:35 AM »

Yeah ,but still

Ramborg can beat VQ2 with about 20000 points more than VQ2 :P

Will work on a Ramborg 2 with a smaller chassis.

Also I`m not sure if T.A.Â² will be HW.

Not the best weapon setup ever but not bad. At least you're building original.

Thyrus · « **Reply #287 on:** August 14, 2010, 10:01:22 AM »

It`s kind of a clone :P

NFX · « **Reply #288 on:** August 14, 2010, 10:21:24 AM »

That's good, then. =D VQ3 is much better than VQ2, though.

Again a "Fail" Bot
And again I don`t care about it :P

Awww, it looks pretty.
Seriously, you could probably post this in the replicas thread and claim it's a very obscure robot

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #293 on:** October 03, 2010, 10:04:22 AM »

Kewl
Looks kinda like Plunderbird.

NFX · « **Reply #294 on:** October 03, 2010, 10:16:30 AM »

It's a cross between Plunderbird and S3 Panic Attack. Looks-wise, I think it's fantastic. Well done on that front. =P

Thyrus · « **Reply #295 on:** October 03, 2010, 10:17:55 AM »

Thank you all :D
I must say that you inspired me NFX. I love how you build with the dome parts so I started as well :)

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #296 on:** October 03, 2010, 10:19:56 AM »

*Put this in your sig if you love dome parts*
I <3 them also.

NFX · « **Reply #297 on:** October 03, 2010, 10:20:23 AM »

Wow, thanks. Never expected to inspire anyone, to be honest. XD I just thought that Side Panels might work for stuff other than Sheck Spinners.

Thyrus · « **Reply #298 on:** October 03, 2010, 10:22:43 AM »

It`s not the first time you did. Remember the rammers? :D

Trivia:
The letters on Stick Omega say "Ramborg". Guess why! :P
