I agree Scrap Daddy, there are other LW bots that would be improved by replacing with Trebuchet.

Last two i have done.

(Image removed from quote.)
UPGRADES- Weapons have higher hp. Black batt instead of nifty. I don't like the non-centerness of the spinners. I might rebuild this one.

(Image removed from quote.)
UPGRADES-8 razors instead of 4. 2 blacks.

I do like your upgrades over all and yes I would prefer the spinners be centered for the first upgrade. Not all bots need to be symetrical but this one seems a likely candidate to keep that flair and flavor

here is one of my best popups, but it has extra weight if anyone could make use of it, but it has a real good wedge

Try to use better weapons.

I'd happily volunteer to be a tester. I'd help with the upgrades too, but right not I'm need to work on my BBEANS entry. I need a good AI pack to test it against though, so testing Starcore V4 would be perfect!

I'm updating Osiris - thing is barely invertible.

The chassis could be slightly smaller too, and i'm going to fix the skin too.

EDIT: here's the new one

Fixed skin, axe setup changed for invertibility, and smaller chassis.

Yep, side irons make the bot look less cool, but they protect the wheels more than axes.

It looks a lot like Nastyer's Return. It even has three weapon racks.
I will rebuild RebelII when I get home.

Thank you guys! You have the right attitude that this pack is by the community for the community.

Supportive and looking forward to seeing the rebuilds!

I ALREADY REDID OSIRIS !!!!1!!1!!!one!!!eleven!!

i sent starcore it a long time ago. didn't you get it?

(yes, this is a rdo of my original redo.)

nayar's is fine i guess. it looks like he just redid the weapons though.

Naryar · « **Reply #90 on:** February 20, 2009, 04:26:20 PM »

Main problem with yours Sage is that he drove like a bitch when inverted. An axe too high on the upper row of weapons. SD noticed it and i decided to fix it.

Plus there was a bit of empty space... so i rebuild the chassis (something like 10 times to get a good one), and fixed the skin (there was black lines everywhere)

EDIT: that's funny, i noticed i have nearly exactly 2x more posts than you.

I KNOW THAT. SO I BUILT A NEW ONE LATER. THAT NONE OF YOU HAVE SEEN YET. AND THAT I THOUGHT I SENT TO STARCORE. BUT I DIDN'T. SO I DON'T HAVE IT. SO WE WILL USE NARYAR'S FOR NOW.

In my mind,

I think I have a weight saving extender arrangement for VR Rino.

OLD:
2 Anchors (8KG)
2 angle connectors (8KG)
Total: 16KG.

New:
Anchor (4KG)
T connector (5KG)
2 black extenders (4KG)
Total: 13KG.

Starcore · « **Reply #95 on:** February 22, 2009, 05:07:42 PM »

3KG can be valuable, especially in the AW range.

Have you done a rebuild or just stewing on better ways to set things up?

I will send the new Fatal Incision for you to look at.

System32 · « **Reply #97 on:** February 23, 2009, 02:11:33 AM »

I'm looking at better setups. Trust me, I've made said setup for many a LW, and on a lighter note I have an armoured LW FS that might be good for SC4.

Edit: Better setup:
two anchors: 8KG
two black extenders: 4KG
Total: 12KG. 4KG saved.

STDP: made VR rhino. Be afraid.

Downside: Plastic armour.
