Ok, to explain what exactly happened.

Nyx bent Phoenix's frame one one of the box slams, which prevented Phoenix's wheels from touching the ground for a good chunk of the match. After the fight there really wasn't anything left in Phoenix that wasn't bent out of shape.

Phoenix went 4-2 and took 3rd place at Motorama.

MikeNCR was a huge help in rebuilding Phoenix. (twice)

I got my ass handed to me by Mike today. Because of him Phoenix is now 1/4" shorter. I'm 2-1 as of today.

Just wait. Something will come to you... Many of my builds are more or less spontaneous

I've never seen hardox outside of the uk, nor have I ever found it's yield strength or anything besides people saying it's hard. If this is for a robot I recommend chromoly (4130 grade steel).

We go through this every time you build a "IRL" bot...

No bizarre chassis shapes. It's hard to make shapes like that IRL and offers no real benefit over a "normal" brick, in fact the sharp edges offer spinners with more to "bite" on. No sane robot builder would have a shape like that. About 80% of real bots are square or rectangular, not some weird microwaved polygon that you have there...

and wedges like that? come on man... build a bot that doesn't need wedges, or make it blend better.

Also your weapon is tiny. (yes I said your weapon was too small on a IRL bot) IRL we would laugh at someone if they had a weapon that small and light compared to the robot.

What kind of metal? Mystery MetalTM is never a good thing to put on your robot...

Spark motors paired with Tiny ESC's are pretty popular in the US. A 300mah 2s lipo should work pretty well.

Legos, but that evolved into fighting robots.

I briefly dabbled in RC airplanes but they were waaaaay to expensive and I was waaaaay too bad at flying them.
