I'm not sure whether that was updated by ACAMS or Starcore, but I'm only showing you the point of 'fitting the chassis to the components' and not the other way around.

i really suck at that kind of thing... takes too much time. all i wanna build is something that will beat the crap out of the stock HW's.

Which is why you can earn other peoples' respect if you try.

@ ACAMS - is that the maximum amount of posts a user can have? :P

Good effort, Hydro. Be patient, you've got some very good builders helping you.

Since he's turned in for the night, I'll answer your inquiry: 'No.'

so... something like this only with a piston?

For the fifth time make your chassis smaller...

Just build something similar to Lethal Force but without wedges and 2 pistons as well as a large air tank.

Cloning a bot is alright if you're still in the learning phase; then when you start to be good, it's frowned upon.

Also i think you can ask an admin to rename your showcase to Hydro's Stock Bots... they're not that poorly built.

Not bad.

Only thing you need to do now is just getting 1 large air tank rather than 2 small ones, and reduce chassis space again by turning that black 90 degrees. (i've rebuilt PitA 8's chassis more than 15 times you know)

Hydro · « **Reply #108 on:** May 11, 2009, 09:47:44 AM »

i turned it like that so i could fit the air tanks... oh well. i'll see what i can do when i get home from school.

chassis still too big i know, but other than that, how it be?

Pwnator · « **Reply #110 on:** May 12, 2009, 11:19:50 PM »

Hmmm... other than that, pretty much nothing else. Maybe you can rotate the tank 90 degrees and squeeze the HPZs inward. This should give you enough weight (hopefully) for more irons. :D

yeesh.

i'll do it later... watching robot wars on youtube :-D

Hydro · « **Reply #115 on:** May 13, 2009, 08:14:16 AM »

small enough then? or what?

Naryar · « **Reply #116 on:** May 13, 2009, 08:15:35 AM »

Well it's probably five times better than the first one. A little more battery power would be good though.

Hydro · « **Reply #117 on:** May 13, 2009, 08:16:27 AM »

i shall do what i can :-D

edit: it looks as if there is not enough weight left to add batteries.

Naryar · « **Reply #118 on:** May 13, 2009, 08:18:08 AM »

Well, now that you can build good pokers and rammers, you can further expand your bot building skills by trying another thing.

hmm... i'll go try to make a spinner of some kind.

edit: here's a lw spinner. haven't named it yet, but it's here.

what say you?
