Look in Sage's signature for a tutorial.

I have made my first HS called "Crap Bot 3000" which i will be posting pictures of tomorrow. It uses 4 HP Z-Teks :D

ugh, i hate that.

Noobs, tip-

don't be hard on yourself or your bots. calling your showcase 'hall of lame' or naming your bots 'crap bot 3000' is just horrible. makes you look stupid. hold your head high, just don't get arrogant.

It also could just be a name, and not mean anything.

Sage · « **Reply #26 on:** February 26, 2009, 11:47:35 PM »

Yep, that's what it is. Thanks Urjak. Now it makes complete sense.

Remember, I will get shredded made it to the semifinals in BBEANS 1.

lol its actually a pretty good bot tbh (well for me anyways). I'm editing the pictures of it now.

EDIT: Look at the OP for the bot.

Nice desing, Flip the weapons 90 degrees and try to get HPZteks.

Well the weapon motors are already HP Z-Teks unless your talking about the motor for the wheels

Yeah, I mean wheels.

My Only Problem with that is that the wheels will be exposed

I'll give it a try though

Somebody · « **Reply #33 on:** February 27, 2009, 05:47:47 PM »

If the spikes are good enough, the wheels will have no problem with getting hit. Also, rotate the extenders to get the two spikes on each extender vertical, so that they will hit at the same time. Also, you can shrink the chassis a bit, and use the weight for something else.

Yeah I'm testing the bot with the exposed wheels and it works fine. The other bots haven't even touched it once :D
Getting rid of the angle motors gave me space for more batteries so i got 2 nifties and one 12 Volt.

I'll try the vertical spikes too

Havn't showcased a bot here in a while so let me show everybody the upgraded version of Win Bot 3000. Win Bot 4000 =D. It's faster, and has more battery power. I've also learned how to battery stack. It's not done here but i'll do it on a future bot to show :D

Meganerdbomb · « **Reply #37 on:** March 11, 2009, 10:27:54 PM »

Not bad.

Somebody · « **Reply #38 on:** March 12, 2009, 06:04:11 AM »

Respectable. You should try using the blue snappers.

Naryar · « **Reply #39 on:** March 12, 2009, 06:50:35 AM »

Stack the blacks, put the drive on the snappers and reduce chassis space by building another square chassis..
