Yup, they are weak but tbh, its enough, since most bots get stuck behind the swords anyway, dont need to clamp down for that.
The armor is the glitch, no armor.
pink battery is mostly for filling up towards 800kg. i have no idea if it influences ur battery pool at all?
the link that got shared, got most of my info there. already found it haha
The servopushers make this design actually pretty fun, because it is more then just ramming space haha.
What else should be used intead of y connects to make such branches on stock?
Before i went with sword it ried out a varity, swords seemds most effective at keeping bots away/doing dmg and using it to get bots of there balance. (getting the sword under the bot)
thanks so far guys ^^

Lets see what you guys think of this one:

Not really the point, saw another fight where he ended in the pit after he already won, its just his curse haha.

Just read your post. Pretty much agree with everything you said. Although I think TR2 would do alright against Carbide. The scoop on the front looks quite well armoured and should be able to take at least a couple hits, giving them time to throw carbide around a bit and hopefully put the blade out of commission. You're right though, they haven't got much competition at the moment, unless the wildcard is going to be Razor!
True, but I don't think a few flips are enough to stop Carbide and they probably can't flip it out? I think wildcards only go to heat runnerups.
So i just watched the first episode of the 2016 version, and Razor again throws himself in while trying to put another bot in the pit. really his curse haha
about the cold issues: 5 mins before the match letting the flamethrowers warm up the arena haha (a)
Again? don't think that happened before. Also speaking about spoilers, should they even be used in this thread at that point? I feel it leads to people overlooking way too much posted stuff. That would make the arena temporarily warm but sadly wouldn't work for the Co2 bottles that are inside the robots and already cool from the workshop.
Vs Tornado in the series 6 (?) grand final, when tornado was using it's bullsh** cheat ring of aids.
And high power VS like carbide hit themselves just as hard as the other bot, so assuming it could take hits from carbide fine, a knockout or push into the pit wouldn't be out of the question.
Against there own wifes too btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sDMl92IREk&list=PL18605D3D405D6289&index=43

Precisly, but then it was really his own fault, now he atleast just got in by the tire haha Dont like almost all spinners have the change to take almost as much of the kinetic energy themself?

Ah oke i had no idea that in tournaments the ais does the work XD i feel oldskool nooby haha.
well i upgraded stinger, meet stinger II
(Image removed from quote.)
I know i could have get even a little less width pack it even tighter. for the rest, unleash upon me!
Wow, now we're talking, that thing has even more Razors than I originally suggested. Only big issue I see is that you're using square extenders(probably because they're easier to rotate, I recommend the movepixel script for that instead) those are much heavier than the normal extenders and don't have any bonuses to them(if anything it looks like those break more easily as hammers for some odd reason). I see a way to save more space if you don't mind the robot being not 100% symmetrical, basically this:
EXEXEXEXEX PC PC PC
instead of using a T connector, a rotated extender is used instead(I hope that works with the rotations) since those don't have a point in the middle either the left or right one is used(in this case the left one where the E should be) this means it's a bit longer to the right if placed in the middle, however that's exactly what we want so that we can place the P(Piston) and C(Co2 canister) right next to eachother and hopefully still keep the robot mostly symmetrical.
I guess you added the spike in case stuff breaks off or if the robot gets flipped upside down? I'd recommend positioning the piston in the middle so that it has the same height difference when being upside down. Pole Spikes(unlike Iron Spikes) have normals, this means that they only hit with their tip and not the entire spike.
Don't really have much to say other than you can export your bot skin template(and then create the skin in paint.net or any other image editing software) to create your own bot skins and I forgot to mention Slipperbottom wheels in my last post, they're sometimes used for bigger invertible robots. Your bot is starting to look good.
I understand what you mean, but i think i can take a extra block of if i tried so he would have the same width as the co2 cannister, i had no idea round exstenders could be used for this. the rotating part wasnt that hard to figure out lucky. the spike got added because i had extra weight to fill up honestly. and when i just tried it out almost every bot gets pushed up by the piston for some reason and then on the spike and kept there suspended after that i can piston away, so not too snabby. im gonna take an extra block off later today i think and see what happens with the driving & balance cuz that was a really big problem, i had to lower the casis and put the wheels and moters higher, now it runs very smooth. even better then stinger 1 ^^

also I hate Bronco's asswedge. Makes their fights a lot less fun
I actually like that the sport evolved from power to thinking with some power behind it. I agree that bronco should be flipping stuff, but actually using the wedge and trying to flip hem backwards was gold to see, and very nicly thought out. but thats just my humble opinion of course ^^ In comparing the two i think you can make a new topic for that?

Great thanks for all the tips guys. Ive only been playing the standard cups with the ais and yes they are stupid as **** i know but in 4 bot fights i did get pancaked a few times haha. Ill update her tomorrow so in the meantime keep going! thanks in advance  ow and if somebody would like to, id like to test her out tomorrow against a real player. if anybody is up for it, would be my first match ^^

Of note:
You can save a great deal of weight by going with Shiny hub wheels
Its better to have one piston loaded with weapons rather than multiple pistons armed with one weapon
Your design has more battery than you need, two pinks would be enough
You have a lot of empty space, make it tighter to save weight
Thanks ^^, The space very true, only thing i wonder if it keeps the same pushing power? Why one piston loaded? i get that it does more dmg but the weight adds up quick and that would mean no back protection or attack, one of its strong points, when he gets pinned by two other bots he can still attack them both. The big battery is because i had no idea how much it would draw and u dont get an overview so yes, need to change that. So in short, casis check, battery check, wheels check, why do you think one piston is better? taking into account the back attack and def.

 This is my first ever creation(stock), he started out named test, And i thought he would suck, but he actually brings alot of power against other LW bots. So what do you guys think, and please dont hold back. ps, you cant see it in the pic but it does have a balancing thingy under the bot

I am from the netherlands, and yes, if that ain't a german accent (he even looks german) i dont know anymore, but of course i could be wrong haha. When they introduced him as brazillian i really had a mind****
I dont follow reddit myself but a bigmouth is not bad in a sport like this. only ups the tension haha

hahah poor you, same reason i dont play with randoms on double, just messes up your score. just add me and we play a couple normals doubles to see how we play together? i have a pretty aggresive playstyle but i can hang back anytime. I am atm challenger 3 Solo Prospect 2 or 3 with solo standard And i was prereset challenger elite on solo double and standard solo. let me put it like this, after reset i havent played really serious anymore and prereset i was just started playing ranked seriously.

Oldskool flipsbots are still awesome, yes you are bronco yes you are!
I like flippers as well and liked Bronco until this: https://www.reddit.com/r/battlebots/comments/4tow3x/the_8_robots_in_heat_a_of_robot_wars_2016/ Inertia Labs member saying that no RW robot would last in the battlebots arena, sorry but if they're so cocky then I hope that Minotaur makes a mess out of their robot.
Well lets be honest, most of the drivers and crew talks trash whenever they can on camera to be very helpfull in the pitts. In the end guys like the drivers of tombstone and complete control bring a bit extra next to the fact that there bots are awesome too. Btw, the leader of minotaur the brazillian with the german accent (what is up wth that?) is pretty cocky aswell haha. So i think it will be a great fight. :D
