Here's what I have right now, but I'm not to happy with it. :/

(Edit) I was unhappy with the wide version. So I tried a different way. They both get demolished by Bot 205.

I Like the idea, but the bot is REALLY wide

Wow do I feel stupid. Total blond moment. Thanks a bunch. Will fix now. I don't think the wheel will touch the ground if I put it on the back attachment point

I found out how to axle load, but I can't get the wheel to attach :(

I guess I still don't understand how to axle load since the motor is connected to the 120 CM skirt. I can't remove the skirt and keep the motor on. Still confused

Um when I try to put my wheels on the motors that are connected to the skirt hinges, it won't let me put them on. And I can't resize my chassis so that both multi-extenders are positioned so that the 120 cm skirt hinges don't intersect with the chassis. It's hard to explain without visually showing you. Please help!!!

@Craaig: The only reason I chose the fragile model was to get the 3rd weapon on it. I think I like yours better though since it's more durable. Hmmm...

If I shorten the motor length, it will be unrealistic since the weapon will run through the chassis. I'll do the 120 cm skirt idea and I'll move the multi-extender forward (The weapon one) I angled my weapon on purpose, is that a good idea?

Well, here's my newest version of the bot. What else needs to be improved? Plastic 1 Armor, 3 Ants.

@ty4er: Wow yours looks sooo much better than mine! Love that design. I'll swap out the extenders, shrink the chassis, and replace the wheels with hypnos. Hopefully I can make it better! Thanks for the advice.

Thanks everyone else also. I'll make the changes when I get home.

Yeah, it's not fixed quite yet but I could do that. It's minor but, every KG counts. I want to move on to my next bots. So other than that is it ok?

I appologize for the horrible crops. As for the bot, I upgraded to aluminum extenders. It weighs 244.? What else needs fixing?

Curent Mouse Trap. Plastic 3, 9 razors. (Debating if I should move the 2 outer razors one more connection point over) Still a little weight left.

EDIT: Sorry for big and blurry crop :/

Ok new problem. The bot is EXTREMELY front-heavy now, and it prevents me from getting any traction. I will be moving forward and then the bot leans forward and skids sideways across the arena. I think bigger wheels would help. Also, with the weird collision mesh of the skirt hinge, I can't angle it at all without the hinge touching the ground before the wheels. I have to angle it so far forward that the opponent barely even touches them. The damage dealt is insignificant. HELP PLEASE.

Ok I added 2 extenders and 2 razors. I didn't know whether to put the razors on the inner connection point on the added extenders, or put them on the outer connection point. Still have some weight left. Still Steel 1 Armor. Final suggestions?

Ok will do Pwnator. How do you think I should attach more razors? Another skirt hinge?

So just 1 Metal Hinge with a small wedge attached? Like this? Now I have 7 razors and still have 20KG of weight left

So kinda like this? I really have been building on DSL for a while now but beeing a newbie, I don't know or understand all of the terms so stick with me on that. Sorry if I frustrate anyone, but I just want to make things clear. I'm not even sure if this is right.
