Title: Courthousedoc's Ironforge showcase of absolute trash.

This is called Gravitron... Perhaps I should go back to DSL, the wedges are bad, the bot lifts and sometimes flips itself when it goes into reverse... Oh and sometimes the flipper fails to self right it.
Any way to improve this from being the worst Ironforge bot ever created?

The crushing teeth are pointless and look fugly. The flipper ones are alright, however. But why Okamifan? You are Courthousedoc around here.

Because that's pretty much what I go by these days and if I was able to change my GTM username I'd do it in a heartbeat... Oh well time to do some revisions to this bot, although I think removing the teeth would be merely aesthetic and not fixing the wheelie and wedge problem.

Until any official username change is made I'm going to retitle this thread as it's confusing/misleading.

Well I have come to the conclusion that Gravitron needs a total rebuild... So in the meantime I may or may not have been watching too many Last Rites/Tombstone fights

Not really built to be competitive, it's just to look cool.

The spikes on the wep support look ugly and serve no purpose. Otherwise, excellent.

Thanks for the complements I am taking a break from building for today as I am a bit tired... I will construct more bots tomorrow.
