On a bit of a MW building kick after building that MW version of Sabre so here's another one. Figured it was about time for a revamp of Vimto since it's one of my only bots below CW level that actually ended up looking somewhat decent. Here's the new one. Improved armour over the previous version (This one is mostly Titanium), an entirely new weapon, wider wedges, and of course antennae because they are now mandatory on all my bots (I added one to Rapier after taking the screenshot, you'll see it in TGM's tourney  ;))

1 battlepack and 2 ants in terms of battery power. 2 locked TWMR drives powering the tracks, and 1 TWMR for the weapon.

So I decided to make a MW version of Sabre (That thin blue/grey and black front hinge flipper) with the intention of entering them as a pairing into TGM's tourney. Got finished building the bot after a right faff getting the angles to work and getting it in the weight limit only to find out that wedgelets are banned in TGM's tourney so I can't enter :dance:

Nonetheless, here's the bot. 1X storm front hinge burst for the weapon, 2X NPC regulars for drive and 1 battlepack and 1 ant for power (probably not enough). Titanium for the main wedge while the rest is all Alu. Wedge is sh** even with the wedgelets because they aren't even on the ground.

(This is your cue to host What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger 2 so I can actually get some use out of these, Kurt  ;))

Edit: Turns out they ARE legal for TGM's tourney so I've entered them in there. Still waiting for WDKYMYS 2 though Kurt :P

time for you to take "fails" out of your thread title :thumbup :thumbup
I second the love for those wheelguards. Super nice. Plus I like the color scheme and double wedgelets for pick ends.
You've made a string of good-looking bots so far this month. I like the wheel guard design on this one in particular. :)
Wow. Thanks so much guys  :heart_smiley:

Realised tonight that I'd never actually made a normal HS (All of the ones I've made to this point had angled blades or some other gimmick) so
I decided to change that. This is Particulator. A HW overhead HS. 6 mag gearbox for the weapon, and 2 TWMR2 drives for drive. 1 black and 1 battlepack for power. Front and bottom armour is Ti, rest is alu. 792kg

(Also it's decked out in the Gulf Racing colourscheme because it's a cool as sh** scheme  :smile:)

Keeping with my tradition of building a bunch of bots in a short space of time, here's another new one. Cruiserweight lifter/flipper bot. Reasonably happy with how this turned out, though I originally set out to build a rambot when I started building. Flipper is powered by 2 very small VDMAs and drive is dual NPC fasts. 2 blacks and 2 ants for power. Front is steel, sides and rear are Ti, bottom and top are Alu. 597.7 KG in total.

Does the razor motor need special ai?
I have no idea. I'd assume so, and I have no clue what py it needs if it DOES need special AI. This was more just a 'for fun' thing because I wanted to use the motor and build a bot type I've not done before. Probably won't get entered into anything so I'm not too worried about AI for it.

A new one. Wanted to do something with the razer motor so I decided to make a clamp/crusher. Bot I ended up making doesn't have much in common with my original vision of what I was gonna build, other than the dantomkia-style split front wedges, but I think it turned out alright. Dual NPC drive, 1 razer motor with 80KG worth of counterweights for the weapon, and 2 black batts for power. Armour is a mix of steel and Ti.

Interior (Not pictured is a black batt that attaches to the back panel that was removed):


EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention it's a bit underweight. 777.2KG

The other one looked a million times better, but okay.

I appreciate the honesty!  What was it you liked about the first logo that is missing from the new one?
New one is just some text on a black background. The other one had some character to it. It actually looked like a logo rather than something kinda generic.

I quite like how vivid the colour scheme is and how well the disc represents the circle in the centre of the flag of Palau. Also a fan of how compact the insides are. Nice stuff.

It did say in the rules on the signups that he was gonna be doing manual countdowns. Shouldn't really be a surprise and you should probably have raised it with him then if you've got an issue with it

Absolutely lovely. The way you made the panic attack skirt fit seamlessly with the design is awesome.

The idea for a honeycomb shaped spinner sounds awesome too. Hopefully you can get it to work at some point
That is not a Panic Attack skirt, he's used alternating black and gold wedgelets in order to do that front wedge, which makes it better imo.
Oh yeah. Damn that IS sick. Amazing how you manage to fit all this elaborate stuff into the weight limit

I vote Orc for team captain because 09 doesn't appreciate the majesty of tinned hot dogs

Nice triangle.

very sexy

TY guys  :heart_smiley:

Here's yet another one. Axebot this time. Originally used the geared beta but was having a nightmarish time AIing it (shoutout to Gulden for all his help with it nonetheless) so I just switched to a regular beta in the end and BFEd it to swing 180 degrees. Front plow is all steel including the extenders while basically everything else is aluminium. 2 black batts for power and 2 TWMR2 drives for drive. 798.6 KG alltogether.

Gulfstream: Br-Brother, why did you join the other side? Yea looks well armoured, basically Black Dog from ARC But not invertible
Gulfstream is technically invertible and is AIed as such, though the weapon hits the floor and and only the rear wheels touch the ground so the bot loses about 95% of its effectiveness

TIL Gulfstream is havoky. Never had that issue myself. Hope it doesn't prove to be a pain in the arse when you're recording.

Another new one. This one's yet another front hinge flipper. Pretty happy with the appearance of most of it, though the underside panel is an abomination and it's rather underweight (770KG with all panels being steel and a steel 10 chassis, though said chassis is only 1x1). Dual NC fast drive, s battlepacks and 2 ants for power, 1X storm burst motor for the flipper and not one but TWO AERIALS.

Has anyone tried skinning hex plates yet? Digging the look, but the color change with the hex bugs me.
I agree. How's this look to you?
