Did you know that if you take the name of the robot 259 and ad the name of robot 101 to it it makes 360 which is anoter rodbots name? 360 combines the weapons (spinning disc and spikes) from both robots due the spikes on it are more for decoration.
holy sh**

it looks pretty original. there aren't many wedged HS's anymore, which is very saddening. the only thing i would really change is the rotating of the razors,
PS is the wedge any good? often when building a robot where a lot of weight is moved in one direction (VS, wedged HS/jugglers with an odd amount of motors, sometimes even pokers) the wedge tends to be kind of crap.

Does VS on RADs even work?
yes, RAD VS'ers do work fine, it can KO bots in a reasonable amount of time at least. thanks VB, finding a wider drive setup gave me enough weight for grannies and now it drive much more easily. it looks a lot more sexy too:   forgot to mention that its got DSA and 2 blacks. the VS setup is now closer to the ground as well, to pick robots up better.   trinity thwacker for the space team. also a contender for lightest chassis ever used on a functional robot, weighing in at 14.8kg with DSA, and 9.8kg with plastic. 2 pinks and DSA.

HW + LW   Impending Disaster's 6th bot, Hex 2. its a numbers based team. Mono = 1, Duo = 2, Trio (unshowcased) = 3, Quad = 4, Penta (needs a rebuild, unshowcased) = 5, Hex = 6. but yeah... 2 blacks and DSA. TBH i'm rusty when it comes to HW's right now. mostly a wedge killer. here's a LW though.   Dynasty II. HPZ for weapon, and DSA. it's safe to assume that this and Dysentery 2 will be on the same team.

if you want a flipper that does damage, try making an "arm" or 2 of beater bars.
the 2nd one looks... odd. almost like if you took a bunch of other robots and put their weapon system on your bot.

more MWs.   Dysentery 2. reg Zteks for weapon and drive, DSA. very, very stable + durable. it gets a few pretty clutch wins against HS.   Orbit 2. must have built this one at least 2 weeks ago. reg z-tek drive and dsa. slides right under basically anything that doesnt have a wedge, wrecks fury and any HS that doesnt bumble around too much. sux so hard against any popup though.   Ra. actually a rebuild of this, its name was "rawr" but thats a seriously a dumb name, so i changed it. 2WD hpz. 20 irons and 4 razors. loads of weapons, sometimes hops off the ground slightly, but pretty good for the most part. preforms as good as most rammers. got a HW in the works right now too... just need to add plows to make it more stable (hint: its a vs).

Don't underestimate their brains, m8. Excluding social insects (ants, bees, wasps, etc) The praying-mantis is the 2nd most intelligent insect in the world, beaten by its closest relative, the cockroach.
LOL, a cockroach is one of the last insects i would have expected to be the smartest of all. Name her Felicia. That's a cute name.
dats a cat name

what happening, jd? haven't seen you around much! Hey guys! I know I haven't been around lately... The good news is that I quit my second job. So, I have a little extra time on my hands. The bad news is that I am now back in college trying to finish my degree. So, I am still kind of busy. But, I still <3 and miss you all! I hope to get back into bot building again.
Anyways, more to the point of this topic. I have to do a survey for my class and I think you all would make excellent guinea pigs lab rats respondents for my questionnaire.
If you got a minute, please fill out my survey. If I get more than ten respondents on this forum I will have a raffle and give away a $15 iTunes credit to one of you.
(I will activate a gift card and e-mail the code to the winner).
The Questionnaire is related to gaming consoles. Your input is valuable to a study that I have to write a paper for.
Thanks for your time if you help out with this!
Gaming Console Questionnaire
1. Are you looking to purchase a new gaming console in the next year? hummmmm a wii U might be on my X-mas list. not really much apart from that
2. Do you typically purchase gaming consoles from a store or online? stores
3. Do you consider yourself loyal to a certain brand? If Yes, which brand are you loyal to? our family buys nintendo consoles because we have a 3-child family, with 2 younger sisters. so yeah.
4. Do online reviews affect your purchasing decisions for consoles? yes, but i look at many different reviews before making a decision.
5. Do advertisements affect your purchasing decisions for consoles? why would they? those things are biased and don't show any drawbacks of the console. microsoft never said in their ads that the xbox would RROD after a year.
The following questions can be answered on a number scale.
1= not important
2= somewhat important
3= important
4= very Important
5= Absolutely Essential
6. How does the price factor into your decision to purchase a new Console? 1-5 3, like its important and all, but the price is probably just going to drop after a year or 2 anyways.
7. When a new console is released to the market, there are "Launch" games that are available at that time. How important is this to you? 1-5 2
8. How important is the availability of certain "franchises" with your console purchase? (eg: Halo with X-Box, Mario with Nintendo, Gran Turismo with Sony, etc.) 1-5 2
9. When it comes to consoles, how important is it that you have the latest technology? 1-5 1
10. When it comes to consoles, how important is it that you have the oldest technology? (retro-gaming) 1-5 what...? 1
Thanks for taking the time to fill out my survey! Do you have any additional thoughts or concerns when it comes to purchasing a new gaming console?

my robot FuZioN was supposed to be a MW torque hammer, kind of like yours, but AGOD forced me to make it a spin-motor popup. if you attach the HPZ statically (i.e. on a baseplate anchor), the AGOD might (might, as in, no guarantee) subside. i would recommend against actually mounting it on the baseplate, because as i found, its likely to AGOD anyway if its on the baseplate directly. Take off the wheels and put them back on again. That might be why it doesn't drive straight.
no... the trick is to attach the wheels before you make it asymmetrical. if he just reattaches the wheels right now it will still veer.
