I'm probably not as good as you at beetles but why unsymmetrical-ness... might be better to put up a trapping design ?

The issue is that I need a horizontally placed skirt to deflect attacks from the likes of CODE RED. Unfortunately, a horizontal skirt does not provide the stability I need. The second skirt is placed perpendicular to give it the necessary stability. I can not think of a trapping arrangement that would provide the necessary defense without using extensive extender work.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

a agree with Nary.. surely a V or ^ shape at the front is possible with a different flipper segment ?

The "^" might be able to work, but because of the need of chassis protection, it would take some serious extender work.  I really don't see how it would be that much better for the extra weight it would probably take.

The "V" position it less promising in my mind, because it would take more extender work to get the weapon in a poistion where it would would stick out beyond the skirts, and the weapon so far forward would take some of the stability away.

I shall look into the "^" design.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Okay, after some testing, I have made some conclusions about a "^" design.

First off, they are surprisingly difficult to make effectively. Also, I had to use a LOT more extender work to create the "^" shape, thus requiring me to remove some weapons. Also, the "^" design didn't preform any better, actually it was worse at defending the chassis, which was my primary concern. 
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Hello everybody! Here is my newest and by far best AW, Lust:





Lust is an AW VS with three light DSL teeth on a piglet for weapons and two Rubber wheels on Copals for drive. Lust can destroy every AW in NAR AI (and before Naryar says it, I will admit NAR AI is not a great source of AWs, though still pretty good) with exception of Nit-Picker (Woohoo!).

Any comments would be appreciated. :D
