Allright, this one's final. My love is renewed!

Meet Tristandon II:


As you can see I've added a HS motor with 6 irons, it works well and gives me much more options in terms of combat manoeuvres. Mostly because the new irons reach beyond the snowplows and the back of the robot. It's also alot harder to tip it on it's back and it's not as vurnerable at it's back either.

You could still double up on weapons, and get rid of the HS tribar.

Otherwise, I <3  :approve:

He can't double the VS weapons because of the rule of 7.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

Complex spinner looks great. Can't see that much wrong with it. Would it make a difference if the VS servos were swapped for HP Z-Teks?

What complex spinner ? I see  hybrids here, not CS's.

It has become a VS/HS hybrid with the VS part having boosted motors (or chained.. I prefer to call it boosting since I feel "chained motors" sounds like all motors are spinning and they aren't). To be a complex spinner it would require spinner motors on the end of a spinning tribar (or any extender spinning radially).

To answer your question NFX, It wouldn't matter if they were HP zteks. It's the fact that the spinner motors have another mechanical device in their attachment chain that makes them spin faster, it might aswell have been a snapper or DDT or whatever. The tribars allready spin so fast they appear to be stationary.


Edit: Btw. The bot appears to be auto-self righting as a result of adding the third spinner, nice bonus!
