One black will run out quick.

HS looks fantastic.But will definitely run low on battery power quickly. I'd definitely try to get a second Blackvolt in there.

Hooray

Hooray x 2

There are two Blacks. And extender fodder on the wedges.

So many extenders....

I liked the other one better.

it sucks.

Really try to lighten up the extender work on the drive. When you attach the HPZ's, the sides without lumps should be facing up and down, it looks a little bit cleaner, and it helps with ground clearance (HPZ's obscure collision mesh). Space management is very good, though, as is the choice of red extenders.

Give me a more efficient extender setup and I will give you a reason for why it won't work. :P

The HPZs' obscure collision meshes actually didn't let me have the non-lump sides facing up and down.

Preview of My Little Pwnies entry

AI'd, and not just a lucky win; RPB lost a plow, Snapper2 + wedge, and 3 of its face spinners while my bot'd just lost 2 or 3 of its weapons. Pretty cool since I didn't make it as a superseriousOMGIMUSTWINTHIS bot. Though it would've been 20% cooler if MNB had allowed Bear Claws.

And this thing, of course 70% of the credit goes to Sage.

2 purples + DSA

Is the first bot a secret ATM? Whatever, it sounds very impressive

I absolutely love the second bot though =3

Yeah, I guess. Don't want other people building stuff to specifically counter my bot. :P

Thanks. :o The chassis does look taller than it should be, but I'm 100% sure it's the minimum height. Remember to thank Sage too.

how quickly does the battery drain on the SnS ?
also, you can still fit three maces on extender..

It's at half after about 1 minute, after which I'm assuming the motors slow down.

I know, but I had 6 kg extra weight, plus with the extra extender they all hit at the same time. (the ones on each piston arm, not all 6 :P)

asdf I was trying to make a Paramecium clone, a.k.a. this

but I CAN'T FIGURE OUT THE #$%&^*@ING SETUP

398.8 - component weight = 19.8 kg for the extenders and chassis. The most airtight (and I mean airtight) chassis I could get was 12.7 kg with Plastic, so I can only assume that Ounce's chassis is 12.8 kg, leaving 7 kg for extender work. Each extender weighs 2 kg, meaning there are max. 3 extenders used for the setup for a total of 6 kg, leading me to believe that the original chassis was actually 13.8 kg.

You can see the first extender attached to the SnapperII in the top picture. Also the Z-teks have the pointy parts forward which means they have to all be attached from connection points that go out sideways from an extender. Meaning the setup is not this

or this

and I thought maybe it was this but it wasn't very symmetrical

and now I have a headache

what that exostack has to do with anything I do not know

*head asplodes*

Sage · « **Reply #197 on:** November 06, 2011, 09:47:39 PM »

it's not that hard to figure out...

sideways connector. another connector attached to the short side (so really close to the back axle of the SII). the far APs of both extenders have zteks, and the insides of them have RADs. on the last open connection point, another sideways extender is placed. attached to both ends of this are the zteks.

Started out as a clone of Paramecium, ended up looking like NFX's August BOTM entry.

Black, DSA, invertible, blablabla
