I feel like your main problem though is you're relying a lot on the updraft of the weapon but the design doesn't support this very well. if you fight another robot focusing on lifting power you will likely be destroyed because you 1. dont have a wedge to leverage your updraft against and 2. your robot flips back easy and has an exposed chassis. I don't really like wedges but in RA2 if you want your VS to have a lot of kick you kind of need one. I also was never a fan of the twin spaghetti fork type weapon setup you got there, I think you would get more success with a disk type approach and it would make your bot more stable since it wouldnt catch as easy on the floor or opponent. this design might work better as a drum actually, just play around with it a bit
also lol at most toxic guy around calling others out on this sh**
Looks fair ballin' man.Any way of lowering the z-teks though? I don't know for sure how low to the ground they are already mind, but if you could it would help the plow protect them better and add extra kick to the VS.
I would heavily encourage you to use weapons without normals for a FS, beaters would be one of the best choices imoI think stronger drive would help you, even just grippier wheels would probably do it. I would replace one of the blacks with 2 pinks or something. if you used mini wheels I bet you could make it invertible too. other than that its not bad.chassis makes me laugh for some reason
nicesure you don't want those top clamps a bit longer though?
