Here's what Denali Coven looks like in RA2. I'm actually designing this bot in real life.
EXCEPTION- the real life design has a lifter arm, not a flipper arm.

10 mm. Steel. I like to have the paintjobs I put on my bots really show in fights.

I also built a little counterpart- Carmen. The bot's insides are shown in the previous post. (again, I have to double post whenever I run out of kb.)

Fighting with Carmen...

We need more LW bots.
Here's a LW flipper. 5 mm. Steel.

When you have really crappy wifi, you need to make a separate post for each pic.
Here’s the bot without all the armor.

you can save weight on some of those bots by cleaning up your extender work and getting rid of unnecessary stuff, for example you dont need that many baseplate anchors on the trinity sns as you can mount both the drive motor and piston on one anchor, similar to this:
(Image removed from quote.)

the hammer looks good overall but you can once again save some weight by replacing the t connectors on the hammer arms with extenders attached with their side aps (the same applies to the vs with its t connectors), and would benefit from having the plows attached in a v shape to make trapping easier. the vs would also benefit from a wider wheelbase.

One of my bots in my Ai pack has that extender style- look closely at Evader from the team Awkward in 1.0.

Saw this design, built a similar, but different replica of it.

Also, there are extender anchors that weigh 4 kgs. Try using those to save a little space
You're actually better off using a 10cm Square Aluminium Extender. It has the same shape and attachment points, but it only weighs 0.8kg, and since anything attached to the baseplate is invincible, the hit points really don't matter. I've found them very useful for shaving weight off older builds.
I keep forgetting about that lol

Make this extender a 10 cm. and not a 20 cm.?

No, switch the baseplate anchors out for 10cm extenders to save a little weight and space on the inside of your robot.

...you mean those extenders that function as anchors.

This reminds me of when I saw someone cover up a fractured jeep window with duct tape after a snowstorm. The jeep looked like it had stitches.

Use Superangle motors. They're fun motors for spinners.

First letter is an N, second letter is an O.

If you want your builds to stand out more- make each one different.
For instance- make the flipper you just built also have a vertical spinner attached to it.
Literally stop trying to give advice

Literally- get away from the generic bots. This is why my bots really stand out.
If you guys hate my advice that much, I'll stop.
