I think DSL would suit you better LRA2.

well... idk
i think he should start to make some ok bots before moving to dsl.

Once he has less open space and builds to the weight limit, learning to build in DSL and Stock becomes very different.

*facepalm*

Just left click, hold, then drag out to desktop or folder.

If you don't know something, Google's there to answer it. :P

Jebus christ.

Guys, Stop it. If he's not good at building let him improve in his own time. Pestering people only alienates them. I'm a pretty good example of that, and so is venko.

He'll get there, or pretty close eventually.

LRA2, try a LW first...

EDIT: Whoops.

Hmm, better than most of my flippers... Go for Rad's then try to replace the pinks with a black.

Also, try some rubbers.

Ok. Empty space wise, its actually a lot better, but I'm wondering if you built the chassis first and just got lucky fitting the components. What you should do is build a chassis for your robot that you think is big or small enough, put the components in it, then look at it and notice any empty space you've got. Then think; 'Well how could I get rid of this?' Move and replace the components so they're nicley compact, most emty space should be on the outside. Then redo the chassis so that its big enough to fit your components, but doesn't have the empty space. Hope this makes sence.

Also: don't use redbirds. They're too big. Use angle motors; they're just as powerful and take up much less space accordingly. If you use them, you should be able to fit in a black batt, or at least a nifty. You should be able to fit two DDT burst motors in there. Two is always better than one. Shiney hubs are also better than slippers. Finally, did you use DSA?

And did you actually replicate/clone a bot built by CB, or just name your bot after him?

your right people stop putting loads of help i cant do everything

Naryar · « **Reply #74 on:** May 30, 2009, 07:18:18 AM »

Ztek drive and shinies please, as well as a black battery.

But it's better than the previous bots... i think

JoeBlo · « **Reply #75 on:** May 30, 2009, 07:19:33 AM »

beginners showcases naturally spawn a load of help but remember they are trying to help you improve just the same as a coach helps the football team :-D

trying sitting down planning something and taking a dedicated half an hour or so making it, then test it out, improve it, then post it up, remember incomplete bots can be saved still

JoeBlo · « **Reply #77 on:** May 30, 2009, 07:29:45 AM »

replicas of real life bots are a better idea then other peoples RA2 bots, not to say you cant make similar bots and say that it was inspired by....

This is alot better for the chassis space. use Shiny hub wheels though to get the most out of the weight so you can add more weaponry. Also, build to the weight limit. Try to keep your weight 239-249, 389-399, or 784-799 everytime. Try it on your next bot.

WOW.

I leave for 3 days and I come back to 79 posts of bots of someone who really needs to read and take into account what other people say.
