Everyone says that motors on skirt hinges are fail in DSL. I can't attach them to the skirts anyway since they are only 80CM.

Thanks NFX, I didn't know that. Here's what I did to it. I tried to get the best angle that I could. The motor is angled down 2 clicks which might be too much or not enough. But not being able to self right is becoming an issue

CF extender meaning Carbon fiber? It only has 1 AP

Ok so i believe I "lightened up" the extender work. The new problem is that it's unrealistic. Just wondering, should I angle the flipper segment up one more "click" so that the motor is higher and I can change the angle of the skirts?

When you guys say lighten, do you mean to downgrade the type certain extenders, or use less extenders?

Ok here's my newest VS: Acute Pain! Same chassis and armor as Black Death. (Plastic 5) Titanium 80 CM skirts, 40cm steel extender that attaches to the motor, titanium 20cm skirt attachments. Based on Doomkiller's CCIV entry which can be found here:
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ![]() 48

I was hoping to be able to protect the bottom of the motor as well. I added a castor to the bottom of the bot to have a somewhat "invincible" bottom. I like the finished product a lot thanks to everyone who helped

2 new different ideas. One's courtesy of "The Ounce" and the other was thought of by me. Which one's better? His, mine, or neither?

Seems like this is working well for the time being. I personally like it. 30 to 40 DSL bar on a polycarb 20cm extender. The extender isn't exposed too much, it never gets hit.

Ok thanks for the help. Like I said, I'm not quite used to all the abbreviations and stuff yet, so bare with me. I'm looking into NAR AI again, but last time I screwed the whole game up, so that's not a priority right now. I really need to learn how to AI

@ Scorpion: I'm sorry, I don't have a clue how to find Blood Orange in RA2TC3. I still am getting used to navigating around the site. What does RA2TC3 stand for? Again I'm sorry, could you help me out?

Ugh wanna finish this so badly! Plastic 5 Armor, Titanium 80cm stabilizers, 3 ant batts, Perm 80 L, and lots of leftover weight.

The perm or the protection?

DSL TC Showcases / Re: Dahpretzel1's DSL Bot Showcase« on: August 15, 2011, 02:57:26 PM »
Well it appears that once the perm 80 is connected, the other AP's "aren't there". RA2 doesn't recognize that I'm trying to connect to the other AP's

I like both ideas a lot, but I have a new issue: The weapon motor is knocked off very easily. Is there anything I can do about that?
Edit: It appears I had lighter armor than aluminum 3 when I took the last bot shot. So with plastic 5 and titanium 80cm skirts, it only weighs 132.? So there's a lot of extra weight 58
DSL TC Showcases / Re: Dahpretzel1's DSL Bot Showcase« on: August 14, 2011, 09:08:13 PM »
Re-sized everything and kept it realistic! Large Perm 80, Aluminum 3 Armour, 80CM Aluminum skirts, and PLENTY of weight left over. Hmm...

Thanks for the advice. Is there anything I can add to be able to beat Bot 205? It gets under me and tears up the bottom of my chassis

Any advice? Was expecting some help overnight.
