Phinox237's Stock Showcase
« on: May 08, 2011, 02:24:07 PM »
Ok heres my stock bot's showcase first Minor Injury. Even beats big E! EVEN THOUGH ITS ONLY A MIDDLEWEIGHT! DSA and caster armor on the bottom so when it gets catapulted it won't take that much damage from hammers. It also uses servo boosting.

Invertible:  Cool
Irons for weapons: Cool
Relatively small chassis for components: Cool
High powered motors for weapons: Cool

You get some of the basics. Good job. You have a core understanding of what it takes to make a destructive bot. With some work and knowledge, you should be able to make that same bot... but smaller, and more efficient.  Then you will have the ability to add more weapons to the tribars.

I remember when one of my first bots was just like that, and it was pretty awesome to own Emergency with it.  Keep up the good work!  There is room for improvement, but you get some of the basics well.

not a bad first bot there, as J.D said.
However, you should switch the servo for a snapper II (the blue, small snapper).
Also, use shinies, as they are the best wheels, weight wise, and by shrinking the height of the chassis down, you can keep the invertibility.

I actually can double up the weapon tips if you want :)

And I can also make a havok-ing spinner if you want and will snapper II's work for boosting?

Not that bad for a first bot.
