I see how it was put together, I'm just iffy about the semi-exposed disks

And for more robot shenanigans:

I'm pretty sure this is the exact same robot everyone has made at least 30 times over, but I always wanted to try and make something like that.
The 4 HP spinners are mounted on the bluebirds(lolrupt)
The back HPs are mounted on a purple/green motor.
This thing's control is horribly unorthodox, but it does crazy amounts of damage.
And apparently its part unicorn.

weight limit? just snapper load the drive in there, take out the pink batteries, and put 2 spikes or razors on the disk. and i dont think a bot like that is effective, excuse me if im wrong, but it doesnt even have a wedge, therefor making it easy to get under, and concluding to it not being able to survive long and do damage?

it would be better if you just redo the chassis, add a wedge, or leave as is and atleast put on grannies or something to make it invertible with a snow plow in the front for protection.

Yup needs a wedge.

It's actually very hard to make anti-wedge bots in Stock, aside from HS's ike Absolute Chaos. But ramplates like Seism 13 would negate that. So definitely put a wedge on it.

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEE... Oh, why do I even bother?

I think if I re-built the front plate part in order to stack more stuff on it, I could fit a wedge under there.
*goes off to see what I can come up with*

So I got around to adding a wedge to this thing:

I'm liking these tires better, as the robot has more control.
It still turns on a dime, but it does not have a seizure when you try to drive it forward, unlike the previous version.

And apparently I traded the horn for a Mohawk.

instead of a ram plate, put a plow and make the wedge longer..

A Snowplow could work.
And why make the wedge longer?
It gets under other robots pretty well.

longer wedge= BETTER chance of getting under bots. bots with 2 wedges outwedge bots with 1 short wedge. to make up for that 1 wedge, just make it a little longer. but its up to you

If you got the extender work right, you could probably add another HPZ to that.

I'm not sure if I hit the 7 connection limit, but I guess I could try adding another wedge

Each Bluebird already has 2 HPs mounted on it.

Dude, it's a servo, not a bluebird :)

Pwnator · « **Reply #75 on:** August 18, 2010, 02:51:07 AM »

Aww... it's cute :3

But yeah, a longer wedge (or better yet, 2 wedges) helps.

Yea, I was thinking about adding another wedge on there, provided, I mange to do that.

In the meantime, another bot to add to this "collection":

I wanted to try and make a robot using this style, but I think I'm doing it wrong.

Sledgehammers=bad

Use either Razor tips or iron spikes, and many of them

Sage · « **Reply #78 on:** August 18, 2010, 12:58:12 PM »

You could just show us the whole bot, and multiple angles. Taking off parts makes it hard to tell what the bot looks like.
