lol sleepbuilding

Looks nice, like a HW version of one of my unshowcased bots (Gaz should know the one)

That's alot of razors. It's different, i guess. :P

Also, at first the 2nd picture looks like a bio-hazard.

Presenting...

797.0, DSA, 2 Blacks, and 16WD HPZ. You can get the most hilarious screenshots of it.

And the wiring?

Spiderbot, spiderbot...

It's on the Bot Exchange because it's such a silly bot. Just keep in mind it almost can't turn...don't feel like finding a way to fix that for obvious reasons. Edit: Nevermind, for some reason it turns much better using 2 wheels instead of 8.

Almost looks like it has tank treads hahah.
How strait does it drive? I'm guessing pretty strait due to how narrow it is.

Needs some weaponry. Drop to about 12WD, and add a ramplate on the front or something.

I know it's useless in battle, but i love it. :)

I don't know if it's because of the narrowness, but it does drive straight. Funny because I was almost certain it would have AGOD and/or havok issues.

I could drop to Plastic and add a single razor or something when I'm not feeling lazy. :P Wonder how much damage that razor can do.

Almost forgot I had a showcase...all of these are quite old so I don't even remember building them.

That tribar armour popup without the tribar armour. Made it in a rush just so it wouldn't be completely useless, so definitely not the final version. Still has DSA.

BW Popup for ian. It's ok, I just wanted it to be able to get under anything that wasn't a flipper. DSA.

Remake of that shallow-wedge popup somewhere else in my showcase. 4 razors and DSA.

Just wanted to make my own version of Quark. This setup was pretty unstable though so I had to use a different one. DSA.

HS built off a tribar, DSA.

Some HS, guess it was inspired by CPIV. Plastic.

Redbird FS, not good because other bots always get knocked to the side. DSA.

Generic HS with DSA, just showcased for the weapon setup.

Newer version of old bot, has a cleaner setup. DSA.

VERY old bot from the first half of 2011. DSA.

And some AW chassis.

22.5/15.0

25.5/17.0

16.0/10.7

And now I need to think of something for Robo Zone 2...

NFX · « **Reply #289 on:** September 21, 2012, 05:51:18 PM »

BW Popup and last AW Chassis look fantastic. VS looks good, but I think the extender work could be lighter. HW Popup could probably be built without the SnapperII at the back. Tribar HS would probably be better if the chassis was pointing the other way.

Mr. AS · « **Reply #290 on:** September 21, 2012, 06:22:10 PM »

some thoughts-

HW POPUP- looks great
BW POPUP- hm, possible ghoul update ?
SHALLOW POPUP- nice, wonder if it can hold its own against hs with that shallow of a wedge, which reminds me i still need to make my n00bot-like thing i wanted to do
CP4HS- the battery isnt going to last long, especiqally with all rads its essentially going to be a turtle after 1:30
LW QUARK HS- i personally like the first one better, but if it fails at stability then eh. a little less reach probably wont kill anyone
SERVO HS- i dont think its worth it honestly
OTHER LW HS- it reminds me of arial hk with razors and dsa.
LW VS- that looks ABAP, wonder if the motor falls off against hs alot though ?
FS- looks a bit like duo, but without the stacked redbirds. wedge looks kinda..... fail-y though
POKER- ugh, atleast it was an old bot
AW CHASSIS'- nice space management, not sure if you really needed that ba+cb stack though, cant you just put the cb on top of the rads ?

(hopes fracture doesnt send a 4 razored rammer for robozone2)

The VS has the best setup I could find. The first extender that sticks out of the non-visible side of the chassis uses its farthest side attachment point for the HPZ so it's centered, so the side that you see needs an extra extender as well, for symmetry. Also, the frontmost extenders to the side are just for protection because of 4 kg of extra weight.
I just feel like baseplate mounting 4 DDTs and 4 HPZs on the popup would give me less weight to use.
The HS I want to be able to lean on the chassis for support, hence the setup that makes the black be at the front.

Popup does great against HS, less so against Dizzy Bees obviously. N00bot-ness always helps.
I'm aware of the battery issue with RADs, but I think it does look pretty cool.
The tribar HS was just for the

of it.
VS bot definitely does not like HS like Tempus Fugit. It usually does flip the opposing bot a few times before getting the motor knocked off, though, so with some luck it can win.
On the FS I just wanted to elevate the wedges so the opponent gets gutripped easier instead of getting the front rammed.
For the first AW chassis I wanted low ground clearance on the wheels, so that's why the RADs are raised 4 notches.

Unfortunately, I actually might do that.

Only because I liked the name.

1195.7. 10 HPZs, 2 blacks, 4 razors, and (I like this part) one SnapperII.

Mr. AS · « **Reply #293 on:** December 24, 2012, 10:04:45 PM »

i really like that. my only concerns are weather or not 10WD is really necessary, or is it one of those "GOTTA GO FAST" kind of rammers (not really too experienced with SHWs so if you would let me know how much drive a regular shw rammer has thatd be great). the "low" weapon count (i counted ~~~4000~~ ~40000 HP worth of weaponry, slightly more than your average 36HS has) is kind of worrying too

EDIT: nice job with the 1 snapper too, gonna take me a while to figure out that setup. think i might know it right now but id have to check

lol I don't know SHWs that well either, I don't think anyone does. Looking at the ratio of HPZs to weight, 6WD for a HW is the midpoint between 8WD and 10WD for a SHW. 10WD sounded better to me since it gave a better impression of a "mad dog".

Plastic and one black. If I can find a way to get rid of the havok, it'll be my entry for ~~Box of Nightmares 2~~ Tusslers.

By looking at your bots, it's making me want to get back in to building.
