You just need to rotate the Samurai Swords so they slant downwards and keep the front off the ground.

Tried that at first and it didn't really make much of a difference.

Looks too much like S_M's now except for the fact that his is better built.

Welcome to Stock building.

I'm a bit confused to the rear wheel setup, lersonally. You could attach them to the front stuff, perhaps, with some 20cm extenders. That would allow you to shrink the chassis around the Nifty, but you probably need to protect that assembly at the front. A quick rammer'll probably take it off fairly sharpish.

Dat drive...
You could scrap the rear baseplate anchor method and just attach the drive back from where the swords are attached.

That back BA was a poor attempt at making it different to S_M's. The stack was just lucky.

714 kgs. Could probably stack another black in and put on some side protection.

NFX · « **Reply #807 on:** September 26, 2011, 11:46:29 AM »

Only needs one black for this, though. Nicely done, though, I reckon you could lose the casters, however, and possibly add some more weaponry with the rule of 7.

It looks so... small...

And yeah two blacks is overkill. One black is fine but tends to slow down after 2 minutes. One black and one nifty for 4 spin motors seems to be the best choice.

Of course it's still overpowered as

, but you will need the lasting power.

QOOC?

By the way, there's three racks of weapons.

Somehow it drives as straight as an arrow. I don't like the amount of irons on this one. I think that I could sacrifice a wedge so that I could add some more.

Get a room you two!

And by that I mean a chatroom :L

3WD is awesome :D

NFX · « **Reply #814 on:** September 27, 2011, 05:08:41 PM »

THREE WHEEL DRIVE.

If you want, you could lose the ramplate and add more irons that way.

Virus Bomb · « **Reply #815 on:** September 27, 2011, 06:40:09 PM »

lose the black for a nifty.

Nifty = 2 HPz
Black= 4 HPz

Would it be best to make it underpowered for more weight?

I honestly don't know

Because I am a n00b and I can't even stack :D

Nifty doesn't make it underpowered.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #818 on:** October 02, 2011, 10:29:17 PM »

Cool bot.

Switching to a Nifty and ditching the ram plate will only get you enough weight for 3 more irons though... maybe use razors instead, just so you can have better coverage across the chassis?

Smashy, just DON'T POST if you can't give good advice. Kthx.

Anyways, a nifty can power this bot yeah, but it's batteries will be flat after two minutes.
