sorry but how the hell is it not irl exactly? i'd like to know exactly why so i can fix it
hurry up and tell me, i still got 5 hours to rebuild it from scratch if i bloody have to, im entering this tournament even if it kills me
(im new to this irl thing so the least you could do is explain how im supposed to build it "irl")
its the 2 perm motrs outside the chassis isn't it? i'll tweak them to be inside then resend again and to be clear this is a remake of a bot i saw on a little youtube series that was hosted after robot wars was taken off the air called lego robot wars (they built little radio controlled lego bots and made them fight) and whiplash was one of the most destructive and amusing bots on there, so from what i've hear irl is about a good show and let me tell you this thing is great for that aspect lol. i will keep sending as many times as it takes to get it in because i want mayhem

My advice would be to create a showcase and post screenshots of your robots there, so people can give you feedback on them and help you improve. Take a look at other people's DSL showcases as well and see what they're doing, it'll help you understand what DSL-IRL robots are meant to look like.

Having your motors outside of the chassis isn't necessarily un-IRL, but it's really not recommended either because it makes them vulnerable to getting damaged or knocked off. So try and move them inside the chassis if you can, and also make sure that the weapon itself is supported and doesn't just look like it's floating in mid-air.

well i rebuilt whiplash from scratch its slower but it should fit irl standards now (i hope) i'll post a quick screenshot here for you to judge (will delete it once you let me know whether its ready or not)

EDIT: thanks krazy for the help, just hope its enough now

So I got this picture from Demon of Tomorrow (or Doot for short) and here's the issues I see:


1: The bars on the inside of the axles facing inwards towards the middle will cut straight through the perm, which is unrealistic and not IRL.

2: You only have the reinforced perm metal holding the axle. That wouldn't be enough in real life. Put a couple of extenders jsut next to the other side of the bar to give it support.

3: There's not enough support for the external perm. Either use armor panels to make a sort of box around them or use the chassis to keep them internal, kind of like Heavy Metal Noise: http://battlebots.wikia.com/wiki/Heavy_Metal_Noise

Look, I know you are asking for help on making your bot more IRL Herp. But shouldn't you be making a showcase topic for your bots instead of posting them on an tournament board? There's no harm in asking for help Herpderp, but like when you posted in the tournament discussion board, this isn't really the thread to post in Herp like if you make one bad post in a chat room that's on a different topic. So just listen to F1Krazy and please try and use the showcase section to post your bot and asking for help in the future. You're getting the help here but not only you can get more help from people, it stays on topic of asking for advice about your builds.
Edit: Oh wait, you did make a showcase.

Herpaderp64 (MW is still not IRL)

And as of this message, the signups have now CLOSED.

Two hundred and twenty three entries.

I never thought it was even possible to get that amount of robots into a single IRL tournament, but the wonderful people of GTM have clearly proven me wrong here. I owe my thanks to all of you for making this as massive a tournament as it can be.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I am off to AI all of these robots myself. Should be a hellaton of fun!
