cool bot. a couple things that might improve it:
those center wedges are likely never going to be used, I would use the weight from those to beef up the front armor panel a bit. the front spikes also look cool but I can almost guarantee they get in the way to a degree. I'd probably try to make the front armor a lot wider too, narrow popups always have a hard time especially when they're on the slower end like this one. if you could find a way to jam on dualbirds I would at least try to do that. speed is really nice on a popup and you don't even need heavy wheels with dualbirds.
other than that, its a solid build and looks nice.
Hey dude, cheers. Some parts, such as the pole spikes, are just for rule of cool tbh. Made a version with wider armour, will try dualbirds on a later popup or a complete rebuild later.

In the meantime, a SHW based off an old DSL build:

Whats with the drive system?
Other than that is cool, with that kind of setup you could make a beastly hammer/side hammer too.

Since having a normal VS makes the bot bounce upwards thus ruining the wedges it might have, does spinning the VS downwards make the bot bounce downwards and making the wedges god-tier ?
Ha, I wish wedges were that simple.
And I recommend some armour for the bottom if this is an anti-popup.

Yo those shell panels are vulnerable.
Yo bottom armour + stabilisation > 4WD. How stable is it though?

Whacked out the old ds again, used to love the games on that.
Have they released any for the 3ds yet?
More importantly whats the last decent yugioh game they did for the ds? Just so I can legally download it for my old r4.

I swear less chance of AGOD has been mentioned before as a benefit of the lighter weight components in IF when 123 was working on it.
Either way, i've noticed less AGOD too, IF in general seems to be a lot more stable for me all round though to be honest.

Thought I'd jump on the Ironforge band wagon, and make a popup because why not.
Anyway, say hi to Jawz:




Aluminium 10, pops up well, not a VS though so not that fun

Oh SnS will no doubt wreck the VS its a bad enough match up for VS in general, I'm just pleased its stable really, and the bars are this low to the ground:


Just finished off this trilogy of trov-chassis VSs with a single dual permer:

Well now that my laptop is fixed, the second coming of GTMs Christ figure can continue.

Firstly, oh hai Craaig:



Plastic 3 armour, surprisingly stable and very powerful on contact. Shame I couldn't get away with longer weapon bars though.

And secondly, Ive now been able to finish this, an UHW SS, because why not, Blendo 2016:




Massive disk and only a dual perm to power it, believe it or not it spins up (albeit slowly) and gets faster quickly when the ridiculous amount of sh** on the disk ends up breaking off.

I knew it, Mr ass. A site of infinite jest and excellent fancy. It hath borne my bots on its servers a thousand times. And now abhorred in my imagination it is!
Here hung those threads that i bashed i know not how oft.
Where are your posters now? Your trolls? Your razor dominant metagame?
Oh, its still here nevermind, we can laugh at that.
