What's the point of the top crawler wheels on Ninjutsu?  Are the tribars on servos so the chassis can rotate?


I am surprised at how well it moves.

I wasn`t thinking about the weapon for ninjutsu. I just had the idea for the wheels. It`s for invertibility even though it will never run on the other side ;)

I`m supprised too. I was looking for an extender with many attachmentpoints so the hexplate came in mind. I didn`t know that you can`t use one side. after some testing this came in mind.

CREDITS TO DSC FOR SKINNING Aqua Marinium!

Remember Aqua Marinium? Sorry badnik but I wanted to ask DSC to skinn it before it was even build :o
And also we have a new Dirt Devil (unskinned :P) with (don`t kill me) judgeburst.

AQUA MARINIUM LOOKS STUNNING. <3 I keep thinking that thing on the top is a really long axe.

Dirt Devil looks pretty sweet too. =] Reminds me of Taur 2 a little bit.

you could challenge Joe :P


With Dirt Devil I tried to build a Gravity like bot with some wheelguards. It tourned out pretty nice for what I wanted. It has the same balace issues like Gravity while driving for- and backward

edit: that axe idea will be kept in mind for the second version :D thanks NF-Axe

Is the new Dirt Devil a flipper of pop-up. Anyways, Aqua Marinium looks like Fintastic's brother. Great job.

It'll be a flipper - when are popups ever found in IRL building :P

Anyway, both look sweet, I love the Gravity look of DD.

I have a bunch of new ideas lately


Another unnamed/unskinned robot of pure win:

-2 ants for 2 drivemotors  the weaponmotor
-lightest armor available
-uninvertible
-samuraisword as weapon

I wanted something like toecutter and that`s the result ;)

Edit: I forgot to mention that those spikes are mounted on the drivemotors so the are kind of drills.

Looks pretty good. I especially like the ribcage effect you have on the top. Slightly too boxy, though, but I like it.
