Neon Tries Stock

[Pwnator]

If it's wobbly, ditch the Snapper IIs and attach the motors on anchors instead. Place them a bit more forward so you don't have to use the flippers.

Also it seems like you have a habit of placing your batteries in front of the drive. If you can stack the blacks, you can get away with a smaller chassis with the blacks placed between the drive motors instead.

Some MW I made since i'm bored at DSL.

Also it seems like you have a habit of placing your batteries in front of the drive.

This is especially bad for spinners (and much, much worse for single HSes) since the weapons protect the bot better than the plow. If it pushes a bot away, it leaves your wheels open to attack. Just place your battery in between your drive and it will be more protected and even steers better.

DSA, I'm going to AI it with Pusher.py

[Dark-Al]

That's not a bad weapon set up for a HS. Just keep in mind that the weapon motors could be ripped off easily considering how far forward the Weapon motors are. But still, despite being underweight I like the work you've done so far.

[Naryar]

if you have enough weight you could try to upgrade drive or batteries. i am unsure about drive, maybe you don't have the weight for redbirds.

how did you setup that plow/HS design ? is it on 2 of the snapper's AP's ? you could try setting it up on only 1 to save 2kg worth of extenders.

What's the point of a plow if your weapon motors are going to be ripped off in 1:00 to 1:30?

[Pwnator]

You don't need that nub at the front of your chassis. Six sides is enough for the setup that you have.

Also, your motors are sticking too far out. Just use a simple T-extender instead of that weird asymmetrical setup.

You also have the option to switch to 3 razors per arm instead of 2 maces, but that's entirely up to you. Otherwise, just stick in another plow.

What Pwn said

[Dark-Al]

Not bad overall. My only recommendation is to tighten the Chassis to try get the snapper closer to the battery if you can, since there is a bit of a gap between both the Snapper and the Supervolt that could be filled. Other wise, good work Neon.

[Naryar]

i think you could use only 2 multiextenders round extenders and "snapper" load that setup off a horizontal, forwards pointing axle mount

[Badger]

If you wanted more efficiency you could put the drive on the snapper too, and shrink the chassis. As well as what Nar said.

[090901]

do what neon said, use one horizontal round extender instead of 2 to attach your HPZ,  and swap your razors to either bear claws maces or irons since razors blow. dont put the drive on a snapper since you wont save enough weight to make it worth while of making the setup more complicated

My first attempt at stacking nifty's, just lurked a little. May have plans to improve messiah

[Badnik96]

small wedge > emergency wedge most of the time. other than that it's pretty good, can't really tell much else from this angle

I know Badnik did point out about using a small wedge over an Emergency wedge. But from the angle of your photo, your wedge set-up looks too high up to be classed as a good wedge. Try lowering the starting position of the wedge down near to the lower line of the Chassis' bracket wedge or play around with the wedge high if you wish to achieve a lower wedge. But just don't leave the bot hanging off it's wheels. Alternatively, try placing in the snapper in the chassis at it's lowest connection point by the main part of the snapper itself, this will allow you to get the wedge in as low as possible without having the worries of not being able of getting the wedge in as low as possible and will save a bit of room in your chassis for you to tighten up or possibly add a Supervolt.

If you wanted an example of this alternative idea, this should give you a clue on how to make a good wedge set up:

 

[Jammy Dodger]

he just needs to change the E wedge to a small wedge, he doesnt need double wedges as he has a long enough wedge to counter that

[Dark-Al]

I'm aware that you don't need a double wedge, if you have a good first wedge. The picture was meant to show about how to place out the snappers to get the best wedge, but I apologies for the poor example of a picture.

[090901]

change rubbers to shines, change the e-wedge to a small wedge, use that extra weight to change one of the nifties to a black. flip the ddts so your razors are closer together in the middle.
