the side casters look a little worthless

could use a third DDT rather that that much load on 2

shrink some space

possibly add another black in there I think it would need more then 2

Edit: That looks like Ounce's skin from his doomed bots entry "Go Up Here"

He's using the "Blue Flame end" skin, it's in ACAMS texture pack.

I just cannot turn the 'rods' to face where I want it to. I tried Sage's skin pack, pressing F12, nothing works!

Edit: I just did it after I posted.

Im gonna have to say that the minimun drive for LW popups is red bird, most preferred would be Z-Tek as HP might be too fast.

Should I replace the black battery with a red one to fit 2 redbirds?

Leave the black and toss out the wedge.

Most LW popups don't have a wedge. That gives this one a clear advantage.


For once the mods did something right

since they are only LW robots would a blue snapper not be powerful enough to fire razors ? especially it you cut down extender work ?

Blue snappers fail at weapons.

The Snapper II's for the wedge. The Snapper2's the one with the weapons. But yeah, cut down on the extender work and chassis space (if you can stack the CB into the black) and you'll have enough weight for a better wedge or beefier drive. :D

This is the latest version of Packie 17



The reason I have only been posting popups is because that is literally the only type of bot I can make.

Quote from: Natef;81225
This is the final version of Packie 17

Never call any bot final!

You can make the chassis a tad narrower, which will let the casters stick out to the sides more, which will protect the bot's front corners.  That will help against HS.

And if you can get the weight, you should use Snapper 2's or DDTs for the wedges.  Snapper II's generally aren't good for wedges.

But otherwise there is really nothing you can do to make the bot better.  It's pretty much at the pinnacle of its design.

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

What they said, and you should fix your caster placement. It slightly hurts my eyes. :P
