I think 2-3 pinks would be fine for this. Just an idea, try stacking 2-3 pinks on one side, and shrink the part on the other side. And instead of using a T connector for the drive, use a sideways extender and just snapper load the birds in. And you can also replace the T connector on the piston with a sideway extender and attach more weapons. :D

Better yet, just replace the Snapper with a baseplate anchor.  You don't need it for stacking; it's basically a 13kg baseplate anchor right now.


That will get you at least 7 kgs, which is a whole razor tip's worth.


Not a bad bot, just need to do something with that extra weight.

You don't need the pinks, try and attach the weapon motor to a baseplate anchor instead of a snapper (will make it much more efficient and stable), and then using the weight you gained from that try putting at least a little frontal armor.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

And after you remove the pinks, switch to snapper 2's Instead of the Blue Snaps.

Wedges are perfectly good, nearly as good as S-16. I put the hpz on a burst for a reason (So it uses that one glitch to increase speed). I'll try more armour though.

Well if it's damage you're going for then you might as well switch to razors.

You could figure out a much cleaner setup. Try getting the motors in closer to the chassis, or just more even.
