Damn Horisontal Spinners. If there only were some way to dodge them in the bracket. And what's up wit all the bumping around in round 1 and 2?

If you increase points on the chassis to remove the space it will get lighter. The area on the side will remain the same, but the you will loose some on the top/bottom. If it's worth the work is up to you. Might be able to add a caster or two.

Crawl Through Knives 4.2 vs Vela
Winner: Vela
- Oggie should get consideration for the best rookie, but he disappeared a while ago. With a previous loss to Death Dealer, the very similar Vela can make his bot disappear from the tourney too.

I'm not gone. Just been slacking lately. I think you are right about the match tho. If it were the combat arena I would have a decent chance, but the box in the middle ****s up pretty badly. *Hoping for some "high speed collisions" like in round 2 against Death Dealer*. And last, but not least: Thanks! ;)

You are not supposed to use winrar on .iso. Try Daemon Tools instead.

That last bot looks awesome, just like the rest of your bots.

Yeh, it'll probably be protection of some kind. Thinking about a plow on top of the bot under the weapons.

About time that I showcase my original and my final BBEANS5 entries.

   


My original entry. Basically a popup, but it pins the other bot up against a wall while it rip the gut. My second bot after finding this forum, and the first I made that can compete with SCv3. It is based of a MW I made that did good against Stock and SCv1, but failed against v3 (my first bot after this forum).
-3 Blacks
-16 Razor tips
-Selfrights if the plow falls off
-Decent wedge


My final entry:

   


Kind of a juggler-tank. Well protected, but slow. Started out as a VS, but I didn't like how the weapons fell off so easily agains HSs. Might find a way to use up the last 30 kg in the next version.
-2 Blacks
-Great wedges

Finally =)

Sucks that I'm out after first round tho. My biggest fear was getting thrown around by a stable bot. Seems like I was right on that at least.

Time to showcase my first working HS:



I first made it with only one servo piston, but because of AGOD I had to remake it with two. It's not as good as other HS's, but at least it's working (cheers). Not invertible, but I've been able to drive it upside down when it's damaged.
-2 blacks
-DSA
Can't think of anything else useful to say about a HS.

Why would you move the actuator in a fight? What does that do?

In the start of the fight the weapons is on the left of the actuator.

So a Pure HS MUST have the drive HPs on the snapper? It won't make any difference apart from making the drive motors more likeliy to get knocked off (maybe some weight). It will be easy to do (a T-conector on the end of one of the extenders), but I'm not going to do it as it's not working anyways. And that design's only chanse of going invertible is with slims.

No, but you do need it to move the actuator in the fight, which I belive is more important.

Here is a pic of how it's put together:

Just extend and Retract to put on the HP-ZTeks.
Forgot to crop it :S

Thank you Somebody.

Here is my 2nd try at a HS.
It is Invertible, got 2 blacks and DSA. Tho I still got a problem with AGOD sh**ting all over me. Is this normal when building HSs? Any tips on how to avoid it? (Paused the game when going in Garage) Or is it only if you try to stack everyting on one component?



It is a Linear Actuator for those who wonder.

Is it possible to make a symmetrical one using one snapper?

Yes. Here are my first atempt at a Pure HS:

   


If it wasn't for the fact that it got serious problems with AGOD I would have put some more time in it and tried to make it better. Other than that I'm quite happy building a Pure HS on one snapper without looking on someone else first. I might try to build a working HS sometime, but it's hard to make one without making a copy of some other bot.
