The Bacon Bowl (Ironforge)
« on: December 22, 2016, 06:04:10 PM »
Because I am creatively burned out, I am keeping more entrees on this thread on hold. If I post a tech before this timer runs out you have permission to slap me in forum.

Hi
But I never said in another showcase  :approve:

Anyways, I have been messing around a bit and got this.

That is not enough drive for that bot im pretty sure. I'm not sure if I like it or not, and I think I kinda like it. I mean, it's gonna lose in any arena with OOTA because as soon as it hits anything or gets gutripped its gonna mauler dance to the moon and back, but still.
also lol at most toxic guy around calling others out on this sh**

yeah it needs more drive. your'e gonna want to actually use the 4 free ballasts so this thing stays somewhat grounded considering it probably shoots itself and the other bot when it makes contact

Party light isn't really a good example, as that bot was built to be a servo turret poker: not the most efficient bot at the best of times.

an anchor weighs the same as a 20cm and has infinite HP  :eek:, he might as well just attach all the knives to anchors since its worth it imo

that means he doubles his weight though, that's a backwards step in efficiency

5kgs spare is a lot when your weight limit is 75kgs. That's like having a 740kg HW in stock. Since you'll only be using 1 side of the weapon, cutting blades would probably be wiser. Good job on the chassis though, looks very tight.

My bad, you're right.

Maybe switch the positions of the wheels and weapon anchors? I think the bot has too little range on the weapons as-is. If you put the drive on anchors you could shrink the chassis more, too. And then you might have weight for cutting blades?
