Not sure why people are saying Adopted is going to beat Zealot. I'm running ten razors on two snapper 2 bursts.

I've powered six active DDTs on three blacks before, so you have just enough power there.

You should make sure the hp zteks have the flat side facing down, that way you can run rubbers on it.

Blue snappers make the worst wedges possible, I'd suggest making weight for snapper 2 wedges.


Also, the design heavily reminds me of Surgical Strike.

I guess I'll take Megaton, Riot, and Scrappers.

Though I already made 205 and Sentinel, if anyone wants to see them.

Strange question, but does anybody know what happened to Satan's Mutt, the UK featherweight built as a part of a challenge for the Gadget Show?
Vanished into the either.

Few pointers:
You can stack the black batteries to save space, that way you can lower the chassis height.
Change the wheels to rubbers to improve wedging ability
You can easily have more weapons, you have about 130 kilos of weight left to work with
Use small wedges over emergency wedges, they are superior in every way
Snapper 2 burst motors mounted perpendicular to the chassis produces the best wedges with the longest extenders.
If you have some weight leftover, stick some ballasts to the front edge of the chassis wedge to further improve the wedge

Hot glue melts m8.

Use silicon gel.

Houston, we have no heat-shrink.

Funnily enough, I think have that exact same cutting board brand. Best of luck though.

the eyes look wrong imo

robots are robots, not living things
I see you're racist against robots.


Man, I'm always impressed on how Tanto gets smaller and smaller each time it gets rebuilt.

Right now I'm designing Obsidian. I'm considering either a VS or a HS. Right now, the designs look like this:

I'm leaning more to the HS, but seeing how well the VS did at Moto in all weight classes, I'm thinking about going VS to counter wedges better.

Both designs share the same parts(Except the weapon belt), as it stands, the list looks like:

I'm also considering converting the Spark motors to brushless(Using 12mm inrunners and Afro escs), I'm just not sure how the gearbox will handle the extra RPM, if anybody has made the conversion and can give me some pointers, that would be appreciated.

Oh and uh, happy leap year.

*You only need five ant batteries
*Angle connectors are useless
*Tri-bars are useless
*You need more weapon
*You could use less drive

Well, first of all, don't touch the armor options, and then it is stuck on "DSA", which, in stock, is lighter, and stronger, than steel.

So not choosing armor gives you better armor?

Wasn't aware of that. Until today I have never built something in Stock before, so I always thought choosing armor was important.

...Unless I've misinterpreted what you've said?

Nope, you've got it right.  It's a weird bug in the game.  All the Stock AI bots have double-strength armor, too.

As far as the design you're making, I just don't think it's possible to make in Stock effectively.  The only good weapons in stock are razors, maces, iron spikes, and sometimes bear claws, and I don't think any of those would fit given what you're trying to do.
Single sided ice picks, small axes, short pole spikes, and pointy tips are also good if you can work around the normals.

Here's a question for you guys what is your favourite robot wars game besides robot arena and why?
The answer is none, because they're all terrible.

I remember playing this game. It bad game.
But Middleweight Last Battle Is Hardest.
We Can't Beat Him. I Cry.
What Is Bad Game? (And Even Cry)
(Image removed from quote.)
If I thought hard games were bad, then I wouldn't still be playing Ikaruga. The reason I don't like the game is because its arse.

Anyone else tried out the Hypertough drills from Walmart? I haven't picked one up yet, but looking at them, they seem to be a decent alternative to the Harborfreight drills.
