I like the idea of it being effective in the BBEANS arena.

It is too bad that the PSU is so overweight.  It makes it a tough call if you cant use that weight toward defense/weapons.

I lol-ed at the Paul McCartney's fap-face.

Good stuff. I rather like the last one. Sounds very similar to Photek, which I am heavily into right now.

Yeah, In case you were not aware RPJK.  When somebody hosts a match (or tournament for that matter) They record the matches and post them for us all to see. 

It isn't done live or anything.

Good luck. I hope you do well. You've put a bunch of effort into trying to learn how to build better.  Don't be too disappointed if you lose because there will always be battles to have another day.

Last time I ran into a problem like that it turned out I didn't have the correct smartzone pack installed.  So it was borking out because my RA2 didn't have the correct components.

Nope, pinks are for wimps. It's a Nifty.

Is yours a Nifty too or a Supervolt?

Supervolt :3

i do actualy sell a kind of kit ;)  the speed controllers are "homemade" ive taken the guts out of servos and just shortenesd wires
i could give you a full parts list if you like

Nah. That's o.k. Thanks though. I hardly have time to build bots in RA2, let alone ever build a bot for actual competitions.  I am more focused on getting my project car on the road again, bot building might have to come next year.  :P

all over the place, giant cod, robot bits, smc, betta homes, ikea, direct plastics, ebay, why?

Just curious. You put it all together rather well! I am mostly curious about the control board and chipset.  With how you have it all set up, it looks like you bought a kit. Nice work.

Nice. I'm just wondering if those side RADs could be angled outwards more, they seem to be preventing the ones at the back from getting into play too much.

Agreed.  I think you should ditch the two inner ones and just put one in the center with doubled up razors that will hit more often.

Use the saved weight for better protection for the side ones that isn't just upright extenders. (samurai swords maybe?)

Using Win 4 Pro 64bit here.  RA2 works fine. (and by fine i mean that it only crashes every now and then like RA2 normally would)

I can't vouch for glitches being harder because I don't use glitches at much as everyone else.

Windows 4? What the heck was I smoking? O.o

I meant to type Windows 7.  *facepalm*

FYI if you are going to go with 12 volts... just so you know most automobiles operate off of 12 volts as well. 

I mention this because there are many motors in a car that could operate nicely with a 12 volt battery.  Particularly power seat motor and power window motors... slow but have insane torque.  You can get these motors pretty cheap at your local car scrapyard, you just have to be armed with tools to properly remove them.

Oh, and a 12v battery is nice to use when testing car stereos without having to hook them up in the dash.
