I may as well start a showcase here. I'll start by showing you all the new wheck setup on Chick Norris. The new setup makes it more stable, and i still have almost 50kgs left, but what can I do with them?

A hammer/FS hybrid. Nice one.
Ill suggest putting the DDTs higher (or else the hammer arms will broke easily), elongating the hammer arm (to strike HS's center of tribars and so weapon motors), and adding a wedge or two. But this is more difficult due principally to tight chassis...
Oh, and just one critic: use JPGs instead of BMPs, they take ages to load.

I Finally have something interesting to showcase. My final version of Trinity
Unfortunately, My main version of RA2 is screwed up again; I can't battle! So I exported it to RA2GE.

That's no easy task integrating all three spinner dimensions effectively. But it looks pretty effective to me. The weapons couldn't be positioned any better. I only worry about armor and stability... but what can you do. It's got 6 spinners.
For some reason I like the cow skin better. It matches the components.

Ok thats better. I have comments now!: Here's an inside view. Yes, there are two batterys in there. I actually managed to stack them
It's actually fairly stable until it starts losing spikes on the vertical and horizontal spinners, and even then it's controllable. The motors are somewhat exposed, but they don't ussually get knocked off for some reason. It may be different if I was fighting Starcore AI. BTW the cow skin is in RA2 GE the flame skin is in stock.

MNB, ditto what CB observed. Only thing I canthink of is maybe the chassis could be made a little smaller. Other than that, I think it looks pretty good.
I'd like to see it in action.

Looks good but why not upgrade the face spinners to hp? You have the 10kgs to do it.

It's been a long time in coming, but it's finally here, a brand new robot! Unfortunately, it's not a very exciting one. I'm not done though.

You don't even know. It's actually named after real person! Anyway, I want to build at least one more robot before I leave again in about 5 days.:cry: I'll try to get to it in the next couple of days.

I promised you one more robot and I deliver! It's something I haven't built in awhile, a rammer!
since it's wedge-less, it's only good against other wedge-less bots witch in todays robot building world limits it to heavily-armed HS's. It beat Little Darling by immobility which is the best it can do because little darling always manages to knock of a couple of it's wheels, causing it to drive in circles.

Both of those bots are excellently built. BOT-CHOY on crack could use a wedge, and I can't think of any way to make Sgt. Challenger better. There are ways you could get weight for a wedge on the rammer, but I doubt you have time right now and it's not a necessity anyways (lots of rammers lack wedges).

You could just use 2 rows of spikes rather than 4 half rows of spikes, maybe that would save weight.
Also you could alternate pointy tips and 20cm pole spikes, same weight, same length but more protection from the pointy tips.
