Well, I'll start my showcase with a new HS I've built. I call it 28, in honour of 21 year old Luc Bourdon who died today. He played defense for the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL.

I'll post innards later, but I'll see it sage can guess this one's setup first.

More bots to come.

that depends. how many irons on each? are there 4 or 2 motors?

EDIT: got it. in the small end there is the black batts. the other end has 2 snappers with the axles pointing outwards sideways. the drive is attached directly to the axle of the snapper. there is a 20 cm extender coming off the end of both snappers, which is slightly turned to point the weapon motors downwards. the chassis is perfectly measured so it looks like 2 motors, but its really 4, one on each of each of the attachment points.

Nice setup! a full HS off 2 20cms. i did that with a different setup. you should try attaching the drive to the end of the 20 cm thats coming off the snapper. it will put the drive back more, and less exposed.
that is, if i guessed it right :)

4 motors, 9 irons on each, for a total of 36.

not plastic. it should be possible. you did it right? with category 5?

R0B0SH4RK · « **Reply #6 on:** May 29, 2008, 08:17:50 PM »

Sage got the setup right, and sadly it is plastic, but DSA will be the next revision. The drive is fairly unstable, so I think I'll use sage's suggestion on the drive placement. And, somehow I think Absolute Chaos might be slightly better designed. I'm also anxious to see this Category 5 that sage has mentioned a couple of times before the old forums got wiped. Thanks for the comments :D

What's this iron spike? A little more defense?

R0B0SH4RK · « **Reply #9 on:** June 01, 2008, 03:33:11 PM »

It was meant to be like what Starcore's Fury had with the front mace, but it dosen't stick out as muce, so it's kinda inneffective. But anyways, I upgraded 28 so that is's invertible AND has DSA. I'm proud of myself. (There are 4 tribars with 36 spikes there, but they're just disguised as two :P)

Comments? Suggestions?

Sage · « **Reply #10 on:** June 01, 2008, 05:16:05 PM »

looks like you used my suggestion :)

good idea not angling the tribars. i spose thats so you can make it invertible with the shiny wheels. thats also how you got DSA. Nice Work! That's a great setup.

Yo, inf. Anytime this evening. AC vs. Grond, my Little Darling-buster.

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #14 on:** June 02, 2008, 07:20:37 PM »

if sorrow sees this, join the RA2 Global room on hamachi and hit me up

ACAMS · « **Reply #15 on:** June 02, 2008, 10:19:00 PM »

I downloaded this hamachi thing and it looks like I need to type the name exactly.....is there a way to search for games?

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #16 on:** June 02, 2008, 10:29:06 PM »

the biggest connect point i created, its called RA2 United password is connectme. It should be pinned somewhere and used by everybody.

ACAMS · « **Reply #17 on:** June 02, 2008, 10:41:03 PM »

Why use it in the first place? Does it help connect to the game or help lag?

I see you guy's now.

Sorrow · « **Reply #18 on:** June 02, 2008, 10:41:19 PM »

Grond has fallen. AC remains supreme.

Sage · « **Reply #19 on:** June 02, 2008, 10:42:14 PM »

no, but you can chat with whoevers is online at the time and challenge them trhough hamachi. and there will be no firewall crap, random noobs, and i think there might be a little less lag.
