Sorry for the overload of bots but i have more, here's Raw Steel!

6 HPZ-teks total for weapons
4WD HPZ-tek drive
3 supervolts
780.4 KG
And if your wondering where the control board is, it's inside the bigvolts. (yeah, he's like 90% BFE)
up next is Flip Me!

2 DDTs
2WD HPZ-teks drive
1 supervolt
398.6 KG
He's pretty much like The Dreaded Shredder, if he was a middle weight.

Raw Steel could be built without the use of BFE, though I would definitely position the plows to offer better protection to the motors. And probably lose two drive motors to add more irons. Looks cool, though.

The popup however is much less convincing...

By that I mean that it is unneccesarily messy, you don't need these irons, keep drive inside so it is more protected, and your razors need to hit flat against the baseplate of the enemy bot to do damage. Here only one effectively hits. Turn your second pair of razors 90 degrees so they can hit.

Here's my first (good) 36HS Spinner, BoomBox:

DSA
1 Big volt (will add another one later)
2 Snapper IIs
2 HPZs for drive
4 HPZs for weapons
36 Maces (come on it's called 36HS Spinner)
769.2KG, but when i add the other Bigvolt, it will be 799.2KG

And him unfolded:

I might enter him in Ironbot.

You know that's ULTIMATUM with maces, right? The exact same bot.

Here's a lightweight SNS:

DSA
1 Bigvolt
2 HPZs for drive
5 Iron spikes
247.7KG

And another picture to see insides easier:

Could you get away with a nifty?

Looks nice, raising the motors for the wheels should help.

Make it invertible

I could maybe fit a Nifty in, but i made the chassis just for a Bigvolt. Thanks, i will raise the motors (why didn't I think of that.)

it actually drives invertible somehow, not that good tho. i'll raise the motors to fix that.

NFX · « **Reply #69 on:** July 25, 2011, 12:14:51 PM »

The razor is pointless. Remove it and you receive 11kg, and you can then lower the chassis to two "clicks" high to save more weight. Raising the BA's to make it invertible would be good, but you might want to be cautious of the tail unbalancing the machine.

Here's a rammer i made, Venom:

4 Pointy spikes
793.8 KG

Congrats on cloning very easy to build, already established bots. gj

Very nice bot, keep up the good work. I would think razors could substitute the pointy tips, though.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #73 on:** August 03, 2011, 04:39:24 PM »

Turn the left-side axes the other way. It'd look awesome.

Nah, in this situation, pointy tips are definately better.

NFX · « **Reply #75 on:** August 03, 2011, 04:43:07 PM »

Not too bad. Strictly speaking, it needs 2 Blackvolts, though.

It's too much of a generic design to be a clone.

Thanks! but i think the pointy tips look cooler. :P

I tried that, too bad it wouldn't let me.

I would have, but I didn't have enough weight.

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #77 on:** August 03, 2011, 10:50:40 PM »

That is actually Osiris. So no. A direct clone...but who am I to speak about RA2 history....clearly YOU know much more than I!

That looks similar to Osiris. Not a direct clone....you're totally awesome, man. (Image removed from quote.)

Fixed
