I hate this showcase it just reminds me of what a terrible builder I am!
On a serious note I love these bots like most of your stuff, they look so clean. Keep up the good work!

I made a few changes, the frame is a lot more simple now and made from titanium. I need to spend some time to get it to line up exactly. With the weight I saved I could put a solid disk on with large Typhoon teeth (I think I had small before) and added a steel slab at the back for a bit of protection. Also changed to T-minus wheels for the better HP and control without loosing noticeable speed.

Nothing exceptional, just a Bigger Cloner

I like it, but I'm really partial to bots with a flipping arm like that! Have you got any more shots of it? I'd be interested to see the insides and how you made the wedge

Fortnite was is a lot of fun for a free game, also been playing through Horizon Zero Dawn with my girlfriend (as she has a PS4 and I have an Xbox One) which I'm quite enjoying so far. I don't get new games a lot anymore so I appreciate my opinion doesn't count much but the few I have bought this year I've been a bit disappointed with

another cool video man and I really loved the new intro!

it looks cool, but yeah that disc is going to be insanely fragile on a middleweight. if you took the dsl discs out of the pussycat wheels and shrunk the chassis a little bit, you'd have more than enough weight for a tougher disc.
I'll try that with the next version of it. Also I forgot to mention the weapon motor is a Perm 80, will this be enough for a MW?

Quack quack, nice looking duck.
A duck with a skull on it's head? Spooky.
Maybe I should change it's name to Deadly Duck! either way it needs as a complete overhaul as the the frame and disk fall off if anyone sneezes near it. that's what you get for using alu extenders I guess, so maybe Sitting Duck would be a more appropriate name!

I see your point, I guess every design has pros and cons. I've got an idea for a LW with a wider flipper but I'm away a few days for Christmas so I wont get a change to make it till I get back. I appreciate the advise though. Moving onto something different here a HS, I has 3mm Titanium armour I think... I called it Warmonger EVO   It's my first attempt a making an IRL style frame, it may not be the best work out there but I'm really pleased at how it turned out!

That looks pretty cool man, two questions
1. is it fast with that drive/ wheel setup?
2. does it get stuck on it's back or side?
It's not massively fast but it's certainly not slow either. A fairly good level.
Shouldn't get stuck anywhere since all of the sides of it are sloped in some way.
I should explain I'm new so I'm just trying to steal get ideas of what does/ doesn't work

As promised Stranger Thing 2  an action shot for a change  its guts  the flipper looks a bit different now, I had to attach it like that to make it flush with the chassis. I kind of like it even though it's a bit unconventional and it self rights really well now. It's now more compact, has Alu 5 so it's a bit stronger against those pesky spinners and I changed the piston as i didn't feel the need for the Storm burst on a lightweight and I could put the extra weigh on armour. I doubt I'll skin this one as it's on old idea and I can't think of what would look cool on it. I'm open for suggestions if anyone has any. Also I've not learned how to skin yet because, well, laziness really  My next bot I've got to show will not be a flipper  it will be a HS but I'll wait for a bit of feedback from this before I upload another bot

I made a lightweight a while ago but I'm probably going to do a full overhaul on it as I've wasted a f*** tonne of space. Meet 'Stranger Thing' briefly before I change it.    Any advice before I start?

Moot Point 2
It now has Alu 5 armour, a wedge attached to a metal hinge, sloped chassis and it's slightly more compact (I think)
I don't really like how the wheels stick out a bit now but I think overall a slicker design
The arm just looks a little out of place with it being so wide
good call my man, now changed and you've saved me a bit of weight

correct me if i happen to be wrong, but the flipper having it's hinge set somewhat high up the wedge could reduce it's flipping ability than if you set the hinge further down the wedge, again, this is just a theory but if you have spare weight i suggest you try screwing around with that and see if it has any effects
it is as low as it can get (the screenshots aren't brilliant I'm still figuring everything out on here!) it just clips through a little bit as it doesn't look great at the moment. I didn't realise how much space I actually wasted until I saw it on here! But ty for the advice, I'll have a little go at improving it tonight so watch this space as they say!

Few things.
1. the wedges, I recommend you use the skirt or metal hinge piece, found in the extenders tabs, this will certainly increase the effectiveness of the wedge.
2. I think you should try to make it as compact as possible, this would allow you to add better armour or add plates of armour.
3. The front armour plate should be wider I feel, this would allow you to armour better against spinners.
4. Flat sides. I changing this to a more angle side would do 2 things, deflect spinners better and not allow you to get stuck on it's side which I see you've tried to counter with the extenders.
It's certainly a good bot, just a few refinements and it'll be top tier
thanks for the advise, I haven't given it too much testing but I agree a half decent spinner would kill it at the moment i'll attempt to make some adjustments to it (tomorrow hopefully)

Front hinger AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
Why the 45 degree ange on the left wedge? That's atleast 1kg less iirc
because I'm blind basically  I think was fiddling round with where to put extenders and stuff and forget to remove it, could be anything with me though

Interesting, however it'd be more helpful if you were to show the insides. However I will say it's a solid design looking at it
 here you go, as you can sort of see its a front hinged flipper

I've been playing RA2 few a little while now and I've finally got some bots worth showing (i think!) this is Moot Point, it has alu 3 armour
