Condor "Has Shortcut for Everything" 33.


BSF background! I also just realized that I don't even use 70 percent of that junk.

Don't NPC fasts need 2 ants a piece? They draw 19 point something amps.

It's just the string, unless you want to be creative.

Switch it to tite 3, and I hope you have more that four ants in there.  If you don't, you need eight, and if you do, upgrade the front weapon rack, it looks a bit fragile.

Yeah, they slow the bot down a lot when they hit the ground, and with all the gyroscopic forces the robot isn't going to flip over, it's just going to bunny hop up a bit and stay on its side where it is, but spinning slower.

That's an awesome bot, the only thing I would worry about is poor hammer acceleration with all that weight on the arm.

Wow, that was constructive Nicsan.


I'm torn between 1 and 5. 1 has the cool looking tread layout, but 5 is actually combat effective.

Well, that looks effective. Ditch the wedges on top though, they only make it harder to self right.

Ok, I elongated the wedges. The frontflipping is pretty much not a problem now, and it hasn't lost any combat effectiveness. It has however, stopped looking anything like the first version, so I'm probably going to name it "Maus +" or something for the tourney.

Still 10KG underweight, should I just let that go or do something with it? I've got about 24 hours to submit the final version.

Wow! I didn't know that existed.

Update was a bit delayed to to my copy of Super Mario Galaxy 2 arriving (fantastic game!) but here's the updated Maus:

I have to agree with Naryar about the worthlessness of the treads. Wheels work so much better. I've also smallified the chassis, it now has 4 ants and a battlepack. The motors were downgraded to NPC fasts, because I only needed the Eteks for the slow-ass treads. I've used the weight to upgrade the weapon, and yes this does make the disk much less likely to come off. Gyrodancing is still a problem, but is much easier to deal with.


I have a little over 50KG left, and I'm thinking of elongating the wedges because it has a nasty habit of doing a single frontflip like Alien Queen every time it hits something. Alternatively, I could add more armor, because a tite extender and a spinner shell are all that's protecting the wheels and chassis. What do you guys think?

It's got 12 of them, I need at least 9 for the drive Eteks.


I'd like to update this now but I have to go to bed, expect version 2.0 tomorrow.

I know they're supposed to be animals, but half of them look like paramecia.


They just showed up at my school a few days ago, although I really don't get why.

If I used Overkill tires and NPC Fasts I could put a smaller chassis on it and save a lot of weight, then use that to upgrade the weapons.


Going for the DSL bar/light tooth now
EDIT: Tried that, now the weapon is too big. If I use this I'll need to completely rebuild the bot.

Yeah, I waited 45 seconds for it to stop spazzing out before I rammed it head on, I went under with one wedge and not with the other.

Yet again reviving this thing to get some feedback on my RIP2 entry



Armor is tite 1 and it has 12 ant batts.


It's called "Maus" after a experimental superheavy (180t!) German tank during WWII.


Some things to note: I've since removed the random multiextender near the dual perm. Those 120X20 DSL bars are for preventing gyrodancing, but they need to be longer to be functional. I'm using treads because they are only 20KG heavier than Overkill tires and far stronger.


There are a TON of issues with this though. It gyrodances like crazy, the disc falls off all the time and it has a hard time even out wedging Mikado from NAR AI. It needs a major overhaul. What do you think I can improve?

That looks awesome, hopefully it'll do better than Timber I did.
