VERY nice LW there NFX.
I like the idea for the HW a lot I must say, if you want to make the wedges more stable you should try and move the disks a bit more forward along the ramp, and try using razorz rather than the irons in order to decrease the weapons radius if needs be, so you can move the weight distribution forward on the wedges.

Yet another LW.

249.0, DSA, Invertible. Probably gonna swap the iron for another razor and widen the casters.

A different version of the bot posted yesterday. Not sure if it's better or worse. But it is invertible. Still 249.0, still DSA.

(Image removed from quote.)

Have you tried attaching the weapon motors by the end attach point, like you did on the LW you just posted? I imagine a wider weapon would make it better at grabbing HS's and taking off extenders.

Both LW's look fantastic.

Wanted to rebuild False Popup today. Also mend the quarrel SKBT and I had over naming rights. With that in mind, here's Paradox.

397.2, DSA, 2 Blacks, 6 razors. Not tested the wedge yet, but knowing me, it'll probably suck.

First I thought it was LW. O.O

its so small...

its awesome but im scared about hs hitting the top

madman3 · « **Reply #527 on:** April 23, 2012, 02:07:24 PM »

It looks pointlessly small and too easy to knock back.

Sage · « **Reply #528 on:** April 24, 2012, 06:18:13 PM »

Nice stack on the blacks + CB! not easy to do. Cool build, but yea it's too small. Compact is only really ever good on HS.

NFX · « **Reply #529 on:** April 25, 2012, 06:21:25 AM »

I think I've just gotten into the habit of building chassis as small as I can. Less weight for the chassis means more weight for stuff. Anyhow, here's what I've got in mind for Jonzu's RW Series 8 tourney.

398.7, Aluminium armour. I wanted to keep the appearance of the casters and wheelguards on the first version with the blades, but they actually deal some okay damage too. Technically invertible as well, but it can also self-right reliably.

Concept time, with a 1WD LW SnS.

248.9, DSA, Nifty. 4 casters, 1 on each corner. Sort of scuttles around when it's inverted. Took a couple of goes to get the setup how I wanted.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #532 on:** April 29, 2012, 07:03:53 AM »

Insides? Where does the battery go?

Pwnator · « **Reply #533 on:** April 29, 2012, 07:09:02 AM »

Right beside the snapper (based on the pic, snapper on the left & batt on the right).

Correct. I was quite lucky to get the chassis the right shape and size to fit the Nifty, SnapperII and four casters, and just be on the weight limit. Bonus invisible cookie to anyone who can guess the setup.

Sage · « **Reply #535 on:** April 29, 2012, 12:21:50 PM »

That's the sickest LW i've ever seen.

NFX · « **Reply #536 on:** May 03, 2012, 07:52:55 AM »

Middleweight version.

397.9, 2 Niftys, 1 SnapperII. Broadly the same setup as last time, except the Snapper's on its side to accomodate the extra HPZ.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #537 on:** May 03, 2012, 11:13:57 AM »

That looks awesome. Is it invertible or does it scuttle around like the last one?

NFX · « **Reply #538 on:** May 03, 2012, 11:24:35 AM »

Nah, properly invertible this time. Uses more or less the same AI as Urjak's Bane series. I'm not really sure if I should rotate the extenders upwards, or if that would expose them to popups too much.

Fracture · « **Reply #539 on:** May 04, 2012, 03:59:04 PM »

Wait, so how does the AI work? Does it start out as an SnS and switch to FBSPlus when the immobility counter starts?
