I like it.
I wonder how many people will now take their potential enteries and go fight DOAM. I know I will.

Edit: I lost

The Beta burst motor doesn't show up in the arenas. It is in the bot lab.



Anyone have an explination/fix.

I am runing DSL 2.1 over a 1.3 patched RA2 game in Windows 7 64 with a Intel Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family Graphics card.

Sugestions for website.

Include motor RPM motor torque rating in product description. With many builders they will not buy off brand or unmarked of what brand it is parts. When we buy parts we want to know "who makes em". 

I sugest you stock "lite flight" wheels they are good wheels for ants and beatles. I would also stock RC gear. Specktrum BR 6000 recievers and DX 5 or DX 6 spread spectrum transmitters from Specktrum. I suggest you stock parts from Demsion Enginering. They make good insect weight bot parts and some are useful in heavier weight classes. Finaly I think you could sell Carbon Fiber sheets to construct the bots with or for armor.

Good luck getting this business going

Correct me if I am wrong.

Why don't you all follow real robot classifications.

Wedge
Lifter
  Popup could be lifter
  Flipper
Flipper
Spinner
    Sheck Spinner
    Vertical
    Horizantal
    FBS
Thwack
   SNS
 
     
SNS seems more like a fighting tactic than a robot type. Just me though. I have always called them thwacks. Never heard of SnS untill I came here.

I sugest you go to heck
SnS a robot with 2 or more arms the continuesly spins in place
FBS a 1 amred or teethed self spining robot, like a shell spinner, also, Thunderclouds
 
lets just call sidewinder/thundercload and continuess thwacks the same thing, FBS
 
also, I know more than you, again
what were the first
FBS
S spiner?
thwack?
melty brain?
wedge?
treadbot?

Sparkey knowing trivial infomation means nothing.

FBS could be weapons attached to body not on arms. Much like the real robot cyclonebot. Builders DB profile. http://www.buildersdb.com/botdetails.asp?botid=635

I think you should juts get a new computer. After all the trouble you have gone through I don't see the benifit of just going through the same problems again. Also win7 is much better than vista.

I have gone thwackbot 1 arm with weapon. SnS 2 or more arms with weapons or using the body as a weapon like Cyclonebot. As for FBS i think that the term covers both kinds of bots.

robot combat is not just about destuction (I'm actually a "specialist" in it lol)

Since when were you a specalist? I am still waiting to see your real bots.

This might be mean and result in insults but when it is time to go it is time to go. If the population keeps increasing with more and more people living longer and not dieing there will be over population and something will have to give. Resources, space, crops.

Works for me with my flippers in arenas where you can OOTA other bots.

How come no one used the flipper stragety against spinners of heavy armor on the back and ram untill spinner stops then flip? It uses less chassis armor and you can use a weaker skirt as the flipper attachment. Example (SubZero Vs. The Mortition)

As for the Rollcage I would think that would make it harder to self-right in RA2. You might want to re-work the flippers to self-right the bot.

If it is your BBEANS entery can it OOTA a LW in the BBEANS v2 arena? Also the chasis looks like a good target for any spinner bot though. You might want to put a front stableizer on the front. That might stop your summersalt problem. You are getting better.

Flipper bot: Use the multi extenders as baseplate anchors only. They have less HP than aluminum extenders. Also you have the weight to add static spikes to score points if your flipper doesnt flip the other bot out. You could add a second burst motor with a flipper (I think). Also you might want to use the skirt pieces as a flipper not a wedge with a extender.

FBS bot: Don't use angle thingies to attach anything. Use perm magmotor gearbox or double perm motor for weapon not E-teck. You only need one Ant battery per motor at minimum so you could get away with 3 of them. Also you have about 300kgs left to play with. Put on more weapons better motors or something.

You have about 66kgs to spare. Use remaining weight to add secondary wedges on hindges or use weight to increase armor.
