Nice. I can't see much in ways of improving it then. Cool.

Let's see. I personally don't like T connectors, they waste weight. But for this setup, it seems to work. I don't know what you could do with the extra kgs anyways. Is the plow attached directly to the snapper?

Theres actually a good amount of things that will still be in color. Extenders, maces, razors...

Because you have more damage potential that way. You can smash them up instead of pushing them away, especially with your weapon setup. The weapons on the inside are not helping at all if you spin outwards.

Make them spin inwards, not outwards.

He was wrong when he predicted Spain's win in the Euro cup.

 OKAY so I changed it a little. :P 4 npc fast, tit 1. Definitely better, but still needs help. 1. Speed makes it easier to trap and push bots around, but also causes itself to flip itself over on occasion. 2. Bursts not powerful enough for srimech 3. Weapon setup could be more damaging? 4. Needs rear stabalizers methinks. The batteries are clustered to one side to counteract the "lift" on the wedge caused by the rotation of the motor.

They were there to protect the NPCs a bit... but yea they aren't really doing much.

make the chassis bigger and put 4wd in there. use two DDTs for the hammer and put more weapons on. make the hammer reach longer. remove the pink. armor the front.

I know I'm underweight, it's not finished yet... which is why I'm asking for advice.
That could work, yet I fear it would be much too wide.

I need help.  So basically i have to build this thing for BTTB 2. I got about this far. It's pretty stable, but 1 major problem is getting stuck on its front, vertically. Need to fix that while keeping the invertibility. NPC fasts, 4 ants, tit 1 (for now). the inside disc has 8 beater bars (4 pairs of "T" shapes) I'm going to shrink the chassis sideways until the two wheels are almost touching, but other than that I need advice xD Too much time away from DSL i suppose.

Better for sure. Might want to spread the wedges out. Also, ice picks dont really help, try putting iron spikes going sideways.

General rule of thumb: one tank per piston.

This is a ridiculous building challenge xD

It might be just enough, while you cant really be a smaller target with that little chassis tweak. Plus, wider is usually better. And the bot weighs more, making his wedges better.

Make the width of it shorter to minimize chassis space.
How would that help him? Larger chassis = more HP and if he cant do anything with the weight it's better to keep the open space.

@ Joe: Doesn't matter against Noobot, it has three wedges :)

Sweeet. Can you do a whole bot?

Snowplows are pretty bad at wedging, you should use small wedges (in the extra's section). Battle axes are only ever good for armor, and suck as weapons. You don't need back armor cause rarely will you be attacked from behind. Don't use pink batteries except for special cases. It's a nice use of chassis space I suppose but looks like you just drew something and put stuff in it. Try to design the bot and then make the chassis around it.
