Trying to perfect HS since '09.

And this one just for fun.

All have Plastic, derp.

Excellent chassis work on the top two. I'm not a fan of the pink, though, I'd probably lose it, shrink the chassis up at the back if possible, bring the nifty in, and perhaps add a couple of casters on the front for defense.

Second again looks great, but I'm again worried by the lack of defense and battery. Nice simple and clean build, though. I do very much like your style.

:P

HS battles usually last quite a while, so that's why I added the pink/purple/whatever.

I just don't want it to be able to get outweaponed, so the most I can do is get 10 kg by switching to RADs for 2 casters or DSA, but eh.

awesome stuff, is angling the weapons inwards better than outwards for the second?

Mr. AS · « **Reply #264 on:** May 05, 2012, 02:11:45 PM »

dont make it 1wd

NFX · « **Reply #265 on:** May 05, 2012, 02:28:10 PM »

It's better for trapping, and taking extenders off. Spinning outwards is better for knocking an opponent away.

ty4er · « **Reply #266 on:** May 05, 2012, 02:31:16 PM »

i always thought spinning inwards is if you have slower motors but i guess i dont play stock too much

spinning outwards is also better for defence iirc which is pretty useful if you only have plastic :P

Second bot is impressive. Other two are meh

Mecha · « **Reply #268 on:** May 07, 2012, 07:29:46 PM »

3 Amazing bots. :) can't really give any advice on it.

May I present The League of Lightweights!

I'm having a really hard time deciding what to enter in RIW4, so here's what I've got it narrowed down to. They all have spiffy codenames that make them sound cool and keep their real identities secret. It's like a league of super-robots that fight crime! Going by vertical columns from left to right:

Basher: SnS. DSA, Nifty and 6 bear claws.
Tinier Trinity: Trinity SnS. DSA, 2 purples, and 6 maces.
---
Adult's Work V: HS. DSA, Nifty and spinners powered by RADs. Not actually the 5th rendition of the bot, I just wanted to poke fun at Child's Play IV.
Elter Ago: HS. Plastic, Nifty, and spinner powered by an HP Z-Tek.
Batteryman: HS. Same as Elter Ago but with an extra purple battery instead of a caster.
---
Manhax: HS. DSA, Nifty, and 6 Irons.
Durr: Popup. DSA, Nifty, Redbird drive, SnapperII wedges, and 3 razors on a Snapper2.
---
Tarantella B: SnS/Crawler. Plastic, Nifty, 6 spinning irons on HP Z-Teks, and 4 static irons.
Gradius II: HS/Rammer. Plastic, Nifty, RAD drive, and spinner powered by Z-tek.

Gradius looks so clean. me gusta

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #271 on:** June 05, 2012, 07:41:06 AM »

The name Adult's Work is taken bro.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #272 on:** June 05, 2012, 08:55:14 AM »

yeah I thought that had been taken as well.

Mecha · « **Reply #273 on:** June 06, 2012, 10:48:04 AM »

A full team of fantastic bots, keep it up. :)

Fracture · « **Reply #274 on:** June 30, 2012, 03:05:59 PM »

Stock seems to be picking up. Not that it's weird; it is summer, after all.

Multibot MW with plastic and 2 purples. Would be better if it didn't need >10 hits on an exposed MW chassis to get a KO...

Badnik96 · « **Reply #275 on:** June 30, 2012, 03:52:29 PM »

lol do what I did and make one sacrificial AW and a LW Thingy XD

Okay so apparently I did some sleepwalking last night. Anyway when I woke up I found this thing on my screen:

Looks like DSA, 10 RADs, 3 blacks, and 1 SnapperII. I should start going to bed earlier and maybe this might happen again. :O

Also found this hiding in my Screenshots folder. Pretty!

madman3 · « **Reply #277 on:** August 19, 2012, 12:56:57 PM »

30 razors all on rads? Gnarly bro.
Still could really use some frontal defence.

NFX · « **Reply #278 on:** August 19, 2012, 01:00:37 PM »

Cool. I want to make a HW HS with all RADs now, if only to see how many I can get away with. Why the seemingly pointless red extender on the underside?
