I tried your setup, but the bot now becomes way too low to be able to snipe HS chassises. However, the bigger problem i've found after testing this thing some more is that after just 1 swing its a 90% for it to flip over itself and a 50/50 whether it gets to self right at all, which means that it actually loses to popups since it'll just get everything it has removed while the popup is only at like 50% health. I have no idea how to cure this, but the big culprit is the piston itself, so unless theres a way to balance the bot while still using the piston im afraid ill have to retire this bot.

Are you going for realism or are you going for competitiveness?

Why no entries?
Maybe bc rn there aren't any stock bigshots (Geice/Sage/Mr.AS) that are entering this tourney?

To check for DSA just paint your bot black and spin it around, if it doesnt shine then you got DSA.

I just wanted to build it with 3 wedges, it looks rad and probably has some obscure advantage
It doesn't get sniped by single wedges I guess???
that's pretty ****in neat, how does it fare against HS?
It's alright, seems to still take a bunch of damage vs. the ones that use irons, maybe because the spinners don't bounce off of that chassis shape as much (guess that's everyone's cue to enter their iron HS into the tourney)
You got far, far worse things to worry about....

Post some clear shots of your extender work. I reckon there's 10-12 kg that can be shaved off from there but I'm not quite sure if it's worth downgrading to plastic for an extra set of plows.


Maybe replace the red extenders you have the drive mounted on with 140cm Square extenders?
I tried Square extenders, but the balance goes out of whack and the bot takes even longer get to it's feet

I built this guy in 30:00 yesterday. Probably bad.
Pretty sure you can use just 1 T-connector and 1 anchor for the drive

Why didn't you angle the first extender on each side? The wheels would start on the ground if the extenders were rotated ~45°. It's a cool looking robot though.
I need the wheels to align with the chassis so that they're protected by the caster armor.

Nice original bot.

Seems like it needs more HP in stabilizers though.
I know that, but how do I get the weight for them? If I take out a razor on the hammer then it's much less reliable at OHKO/sniping game-winning parts which is absolutely crucial since on average you only get 2 tries, if I downgrade the drive then it'll even longer for the bot to get on its feet, and if I remove an airtank then the hammer has less power.

1 black and 2 normal airtanks

I was trying to do a remake of Meteor for Thrackerzod's Parking Lot tourney and Starcore V4 but then I realized that this thing is way too different from Meteor. The 1 problem this bot has is that it takes way too long for the bot to land on it's feet, so against faster bots it just gets rushed down.

1 question,

Can we just submit our remakes to you right away or should we wait for your approval before sending it to you?

not sure how well axes are gonna work?
He's probably trying to keep the two robots similar. Speaking of battleaxes...

(Image removed from quote.)

I'm most likely going to end up placing irons on instead.
I think it would be better for the bot to have a V-shaped front, since it clearly wants to grind out the opponent with the flails, so with a V-shaped front it can actually hold the opponent and do what it wants to do.Yeah it's not really faithful anymore, but the OG Posessed Bee is really bad conceptually so IMO it needs a full remake to be able to keep up with the rest of the pack.

I went and manually got all the bots from their teams and gave them the correct names for easy importing.

Obviously you will have to look up the teams yourself but this should help save some time moving files.

What's with the team 35 by the way? They don't have bindings.

About the "classic" robots that are still viable to this day like Tempus Fugit or Neglected Waterbug, should we just leave them as is or do we update them too?
you are in the wrong thread skiddo

I thought Super Carnage had flails. I guess it didn't.
ummm
almost no-one uses flails in stock because the only free axle stock has is the 360 one which isnt good for flailing (unless you use it in a very specific build)

I know, I was just mixed up two different spinners in my head. One of them had flails, it's on the happy bees team.

Edit: It's called The Posessed Bee. I was rebuilding because I just got my computer.

Edit 2: roughly rebuilt. 16 irons, 8 razors, DSA, stacked supervolts.

aaaare those ramplates attached in some fashion to the wedge?
