Is there much difference between 2WD glitch spin speed and 4WD glitch spin speed?
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Stock Dump.
 

 
1) LW Rammer. 248.9, DSA, Nifty/CB Stacked, 1 SnapperII. Very little havok, but slightly front-heavy.
2) MW HS/Rammer. 398.9, DSA, Nifty/CB Stacked, 2 SnapperII's. Same chassis as the previous one, definitely too fast for its own good.
3) MW HS. 398.8, DSA, 1 Black, 1 SnapperII. 15 maces and a plow with RAD drive, so it's not QUITE a klone of Fury. Possible RoboLeague entry.
4) HW SnS. 800.0, DSA, 4 Pinks, 2 Low Power Servos. 36 irons and 12 maces, 48 weapons in total. Not tooo unbalanced when it loses anything. Possible Ironbot entry.
5) MW True Popup. 398-ish, DSA, 2 Blacks, 1 SnapperII. A bit like Geice's one, but hopefully better. 5 razors on a Snapper2 as well. Entered into RoboLeague.
6) HW VS. 797.something, DSA, 2 Blacks. Tweaked it a little bit, aligned the motors better and gave it better stabilisers. And a name - Upward Inflection.

NFX I was in awe at the weights until #6. :P

#3 is exactly like my RL entry, just with a black.



(I haven't entered it yet because it's one I'm going to AI by myself)

#4 is....strange. Low power servo drive? Or if it's just for a compact chassis, why not Snapper IIs?

That wasn't two weeks was it?

Anyway, I think he means servos for stacking the weapons?

Yes it was two weeks and a day.

Also, there's not enough weight to stack the weapons on servos, plus the rule of seven would get in the way if the weapon motors aren't baseplate anchored.

No no no, #4 doesn't have servo drive. It has HPZ Drive, and there are two Lo Power Servos stacked into each other, which is how I get the tribars like that. The servos don't actually spin, they're static.

And don't worry about #6, Fracture. After some more tweaking, it now has HPZs + Rubbers and is 799.0.

I love #6's name.

Also I guess #5 doesn't suffer from Bounty Hunter syndrome?

I like them all, apart from #1. It's been ages since a Sotck rammer was cool.

CHALLENGE:

Make a Stock LW/MW rammer actually look GOOD.

Mmmmmm I think its more of an FBS to be honest. SnS seems to me more of an HS that spins in circles, yours is more static. We really need to distinguish these types better...

FBS tend to look something like this:



DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT WHAT A GOOD FULL BODY SPINNER LOOKS LIKE

They kind of work like the NCR glitch, actually, in the sense that the chassis spins and the drive is static.

Personal I always thought RA2s bot type names were messed up. IMO a FBS should be like it's real life counterpart, a robot that spins in place. A thwack would be an FBS with a weapon arm, a SnS would be a thwack with two arms, etc.
