actually, for back to the roots, you can't use effe and you can't have more than 4 razors. so you will have to remove 2 razors. might as well throw another pink in there.

Oops, Ill do it quick sticks chris.

EDIT: ok, here he is:

oops, forgot there were even more restrictions on popups

looks good now, just rotate the razors to face the same way if possible. and you may want wedges that are just a bit longer since any single-wedge bot with extenders longer than you will get under you. personally i would also get rid of a pink battery and switch to rubber wheels which are smaller targets, and move the servos closer to the centre so that the wedge extenders are protected by the chassis

Using a bunch of 20 cm extenders actually reaches longer than a corresponding single extender.  For example, 3 20cms are longer than 1 60cm.  Try that for your frontal wedges.

Yup, that's pretty what I'd consider a finished product. Nice work.

Actually, it turns out that since the servos are closer together, you don't need the long wedges. Remember I only wanted you to lengthen them to counter single wedges, but you can see that right now a single wedge can't even fit between your wedges, so just make them as short as possible and it should be good (this may provide weight for another pink). And if you want to go more advanced, make the bot more symmetric by fitting the pink beside the black or between the DDTs, and also do a 180 on the DDTs so that the razors are concentrated in the centre of the bot

...Ah crap.  Servo wedges.  Nice loophole exploit there.

I feel like this bot is not at all in the proper "roots" spirit, but it should do well from a competitive standpoint.

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

yeah, it's basically a modern popup but with servo wedges.
