Then why the title change ?

G.K. · « **Reply #182 on:** February 05, 2011, 03:55:41 PM »

Why not?

Scorpion · « **Reply #183 on:** February 05, 2011, 04:37:51 PM »

Cause it's strange.
Anyway, yep, the bot looks good, is it invertible?

Looks awesome. Is it invertible?

So we have "When 11 isnt enough" and now "Thirteen" :P

now someone needs to make one of those type of HS robots with a name suggesting or including the number 14 :P

Vertigo · « **Reply #186 on:** February 06, 2011, 03:06:53 AM »

I made a bot like that a while back

Good job GK :D

@Latest robot: It looks awesome. and you gotta' love the Flaming Whizzer-style.
Also, what sort of drive did you use? It looks like angle motors O,o

Just 1 more question:
You used round extenders + 2 T-Connectors to fit the HP motors in place. Right?

G.K. · « **Reply #190 on:** February 06, 2011, 03:07:16 PM »

2 of each.

It feels good to play RA2 again. I swear I've played it, like once in 2 months to make my NQRW bot and my bot for 090901's tournament. Football Manager, Command And Conquer: Generals Zero Hour and of all things, Lego Island 2, have taken up my non-revision computer time. Time for some rusty bots from a rusty builder.

Anyhow, firstly, an old bot I found, a remake of Zaphod Stock's True Form:

I can't remember if the wedges were epic on this or the original bot. It was definitely one of the two. Anyhow, I want to lose 2 kg from the chassis so I can put 10kg of ballast in if I remove the pointless anchor and extender, but I'm not sure how I can without reducing stability, anyone got any ideas?

Also a new bot:

Named Gicquel after a French right back on Football Manager I had, this is just me basically getting back into building. I tried to make a n00bot-esque MW, but I'm not sure I got it wide enough. 1 black I think. Construcctive criticism greatly appreciated.

Stock is all about chassis trimming :P

And MW Popups need 2 Blacks

Scorpion · « **Reply #193 on:** June 10, 2011, 01:51:34 PM »

That does have two blacks doesn't it?

I kinda realised. :P

However, it doesn't help. I'm still stuck.

Psyc popups can, but this bot's chassis is a

of a lot heavier. As far as I'm aware, no MW popups with external armour have 2 blacks without deficiency in other areas. 2 blacks would be nice, but it's unfeasible on this design.

Sage · « **Reply #195 on:** June 10, 2011, 03:47:54 PM »

You could get a second black in there by removing 1 razor and extender from each DDT (4 is a tad much anyway) and making the wheels shiny.

Vertigos right, for 2 DDTs you need more than 1 black (1000 intake, 800 output = not full power.)

Fracture · « **Reply #196 on:** June 10, 2011, 04:23:46 PM »

2 DDTs and 2 Hp Z-teks only have 825 intake, so it's not that underpowered. (500/1.6 + 500/1.6 + 100 + 100)

NFX · « **Reply #197 on:** June 10, 2011, 04:25:21 PM »

Where does the 1.6 come into it?
