He already made a invertible rammer before. Its not truly a hard concept: Make larger wheels, perhaps raise the motors to allow for lower ground clearance as well as the large wheels, lower chassis height to have the mini wheels etc.

how about an invertible wammer example then? i aint a bbeans champion, i dont know about this shiz (robot senapi reier is back! =) )

Do exactly the same thing. The bot type changed, but that doesnt mean the fundamentals of bots did.

Naryar · « **Reply #143 on:** August 09, 2015, 03:25:27 AM »

...just use bigger wheels and put the motors higher so your ground clearance doesn't become worse ? literally all a bot needs to be invertible is wheels that stick out of the top plate of your chassis. sometimes they don't even need to stick out ?

FINALLY! I HAVE FINISHED THIS BOT BEHOLD AVALANCHE IN HIS GREATEST FORM!!

Why did you add more batteries? You had enough already. You could get rid of two and use the weight for front armour. Also the blades still need to be rotated, because of normals the flats of the blade don't deal any damage.

im takin a break from avalanche for a bit cause working on one bot is killin me so have a look at my new antweight bot called A N T B O I Z

Naryar · « **Reply #148 on:** August 09, 2015, 11:52:35 AM »

not invertible 3/10

You could get some weight out of the batteries for mini wheels - using 3 duracells rather than 1 and a diehard will provide the same amps (albeit with less total power) but for 5kg less.

Quick question, what would you guys say is my best bot so far? just curious =p
( heres the next update on my antweight... i think my weapon is too fast also im unstable af)

Reier · « **Reply #151 on:** August 09, 2015, 01:06:05 PM »

you can always add some light skirts on either side which protect your wheels and keep you more stable

i think the poker is probably your best one so far, but you'd know better than us since I assume you've played them against the AI

ecolusian · « **Reply #152 on:** August 09, 2015, 01:26:58 PM »

i have a bot that has done quite well called "how to joeblo" which i dont feel like showin mainly because its done really well against then ai and i think its good enough as is =)

ecolusian · « **Reply #153 on:** August 09, 2015, 01:48:17 PM »

i managed to fix my antweight with the skirts and heavier armour =3
i may work on the side hammer now but i dunno, i feel like ompimizing my wammer for ironclash.

Reier · « **Reply #154 on:** August 09, 2015, 01:55:07 PM »

pretty sure ironclash is MW bro, that's 200kg max not counting the ballasts

ecolusian · « **Reply #155 on:** August 09, 2015, 02:57:45 PM »

whoops yeah, ill enter my poker then =p

Always show your bots. I thought that CUC1 Was amazing. I was then proven wrong and was driven forward to make a better version.

Not sure how effective that wep will be.
Your best bot in my opinion would be Avalanche, once you make the spikes vertical. It may be a idea to have two racks, and trap the bot between them and shove them around.

ecolusian · « **Reply #157 on:** August 15, 2015, 02:04:49 PM »

this is my most succesful bot "how to joeblo", i dont remember armour i gave it.

cephalopod · « **Reply #158 on:** August 15, 2015, 02:12:11 PM »

Nowhere near enough weaponry. Consider shrinking the chassis somewhat and removing a DieHard (that bot only needs 50 amps I believe, you've given it 75). Also consider maybe using a weapon array component rather than the 40cm extender you have now.

Avalanche · « **Reply #159 on:** August 16, 2015, 12:10:48 PM »

If you want this setup you need to add 10 cm extenders on the knifes facing inwards to attach another knife on that, then another extender and another knife.
You could also use Craaig's method as well.
