why?
just put them on normal baseplate anchors then or put one snapper in the middle with a t-connector or something

But then it's too high, see

put HP z-teks on and angle it if it is too big still

You don't have to GMF swap anything, you just need to pay very close attention, and have a steady hand. Get the right camera angle, rotate it slowly, and you will see the "clicks". Count nine of them, and if it's off, then just try again. You need to learn patience and perseverance if you're going to be a good builder.

Introducing the new Undertaker:

It has a 97 kg juggler on a HPZ on a snapper and it's a bit unstable.
It eats Hammers for lunch

NFX · « **Reply #85 on:** October 29, 2011, 11:23:29 AM »

That's looking quite good so far. I imagine it might be AGOD with the maces, and the HPZ being on a SnapperII causing the unstableness. Something I would do is move the oter ramplates further outwards, so that they hang over the side of the front wedge. That'll protect it better against horizontal spinners.

I don't really think you need the blade for protecting the extender either, the ramplate does that job well enough. That'll net you at least another 10kg to play with.

move the spinner back a bit.

Get rid of the razors on the end and swap the weapons on the spinner around

What's AGOD? I've heard it before but I don't know what it is. Also what should I mount the HPZ on instead? It needs to be around that angle.

Axle Glitch Of Death
Yea that link

And just move the motor back

AGOD = Axle Glitch Of Death

It's basically when the display and collision meshes (press F12) of the component don't match up. It particularly happens on robots with spinning weapons, but it can happen on robots with burst wedges too. There is no way around it, unfortunately, so you just have to build it again. And you could use a 22.5 degree Baseplate Anchor to solve at least some of the instability. Use a 20cm round extender and trial and error to get the height right if you need to.

Thanks NFX and Smashy. Will post the updates later, I have to eat lunch.

Here's the new Undertaker:

How can I ~~waste~~ use some more weight? Also NFX it does fine against HS with the new setup.

Mr. AS · « **Reply #93 on:** October 29, 2011, 12:11:21 PM »

Maybe give it some moar drive (4wd). 2WD is terribly slow for a HW pop-up/FS.

Nate Tech · « **Reply #94 on:** October 29, 2011, 12:15:40 PM »

I really can't stack HPZ... and the chassis is as big as it can be and if the wedge was any steeper, no bot would go onto it. It is still pretty fast though.

Blue snappers are your friend.
you put the drive on the blue snapper, then you adjust it to be around the same height of the other drive.

You mean I should stack 3 supervolts? Gosh I'm not sure I can do that

NFX · « **Reply #98 on:** October 29, 2011, 01:02:39 PM »

Not necessarily. Again, it is doable, but it is very, VERY difficult to do. 2 Stacked and another one alongside should be alright.

Undertaker X:

I don't think it will run out of battery before the match ends, but I do not know as the match rarely lasts more that 30 seconds. :)
Also it was too fast with 4WD HP Ztek drive so I used normal zteks for the ones on the Snapper.
