Leighviathan.  The scoop may look like a straight wedge, but it's actually curved by 10 degrees.  It's on a 90-degree axle so it flails around.  Hand drawn logo.  Chainsaw comes from Lu-Tze's pack
(Image removed from quote.)


Leighviathan was one of my favorites design wise.  Awesome work on this one

So I'm single again. A year and almost half of a year.

It sucks. It really does. In a year and a half, she turned me into a far better person than I was.

But, eh. I can return to being a mongol and inseminating the masses with my middle eastern sperm of manliness.

Been there. **** that chick. You gotta move on. It may changes the way you see things but maybe it's for the better

I don't see why you'd want any alternative to WinRAR but I believe 7zip can do .RAR's too.
WinRar is technically illegal to use after 40 days and I have the worst conscience in the world.

what? I hear that for the first time

Well, youknow, it prompts you asking you to buy it because your free trial is over.
Let's be honest, they can easily patch it, and they haven't, so they don't really care.
Plus... I've never heard of anybody being imprisoned for using WinRAR past the trial ;)

I never read the message that pops up.. I just think its annoying but thats it  :gawe:

I think it'd look better without the gap in the middle, but that's just me

You look better without the gap in the middle!

If you want a burst motor to flip well without giving any advantage to popup, just keep the max speed at 10 and a really high burst (300+).  Really, the only bot type that benefits from higher than 10 max speed is popups.  Even hammer gets more mileage out of a 10 max speed 300 burst motor.

The piston burst was OP because it has high max speed and medium burst, making it great for popups but useless for flippers.

Thank you. Very helpfull information

I was actually working on the dsl 3 burst motors.. making them a bit strobger but also sligtly heavier.

also nerving the hp and weight of the plexy sheets

I thought general consensus was that the burst motors were too powerful (the piston ones, at least).  I was planning to make them a bit weaker.  Opinions?

I was makinf them stronmger cause DSL3 was meant to be more "IRL" than DSL2 was right? In DSL 2 most people use the Judgeburst for theire flippers wich is a cheatbot component. Making the bursts legal would stop some people complain. As for tournaments you could make a "one burst per bot except it uses it as a srimech" rule. Also since DSL 3 isn`t meant to have popups it would be handy cause most flippers I`ve build can`t flipp heavies that great cause I use those metal and plexy sheets.

Good point.  However, the Judge burst is not really an "IRL" component by any stretch of the imagination.  It's far too small and light.  Probably why you were making the bursts heavier as well.

Let me know if you test your idea and it works.

So are the BSGs but yeah you're right.
I will inform you when things work out. Last time i worked on a burst that weird "chassis attached to burstmotor" thing happend.
I was also thinking of smaller bursts for weightclasses like light/beetle/antweights with just enought power to work like flipperbots in reality.

I asked about spotlights years ago and the answer was that the best solution would be a custom component
