I actually think the first bot was set up a little bit better, but he could drop the material on the flipper skirts to Aluminium, or Titanium if they're Steel, saving about 4 or 5 kg to get Plastic 3. Or maybe Tite 3 could be an option if he has enough weight.
the are titanium

I would get rid of 2 ants. Saves 13 KG and then you could get Titanium 3 with the weight.

That'd leave him a bit underpwoered though, he could possibly get away with one less though.

1 BSG requires at least 2 ants i would stick to 6 ants. making the chassis smaller might also help to get more weight.

side note: this is not his actual first bot, he's been getting tips from me from the start. this is just the first proper bot, and he finally got to showcasing.

Ah, that's good. In any case, drop from Titanium to Aluminium on the flipper skirts and upgrade the armor to Tite 3 if you can.

First bot was better.

And 6 ants is fine.

he's been forcing advice from me! next time i'll ask money for it. another thing, look his Killbox from BBEANS6 (or he showcases it in here) and then look at my Nightbox2 (somewhere in my showcase/briefcase or get it from bot exchange).

have heard that excuse enough times. even if you didn't directly edit the chassis, then it is still a very cheap clone.

@KM: i once send him Nightbox2 (BW) so he could see how bots were supposed to be build. pretty soon after he had Killbox (LW), a robot with pretty much the same chassis, same battery placement and the same type of weapon setup.
and that's the explanation.

I think grammar and spelling need work here.

I do expect he posted from a touchscreen phone though.

EDIT:
This is another explanation for the grammar

nothing a spell check can't fix, right?

oh, and i dug up the two bots to take a close look. left=Nightbox2. right=Killbox.


KB chassis is bigger from what i saw. nice lot of empty space. still doesn't change the fact that is is a cheap clone.

Rave, It's very obvious that he's taken inspiration from you, but other than that, the two bots are actually quite different. Consider it Nightbox's deformed brother.

It's not a "clone" since the weapon setup is different.
