Got some time before school starts, here's stock middleweight Hugsalotbot:

398.6kg, DSA armor

I can tell you've been lurking, and it definitely showing. Nice first bot.
HP Zteks are twice as powerful as regular ones for just 5Kgs more each, so 4WD here is a waste of weight. Try putting on some more weapons with the weight you get back from 2WD and a smaller chassis. Honestly I kinda doubt the usefulness of the wedge too since this is a rammer, but I'll leave that up to you, since there are occasionally good rammers with wedges.

not bad for a new guy.
Anyways the weapons are too low.

Tried out a 2WD version and found the bot was veering a lot. Don't know why.
All HP Z-teks now, raised the weapons up a bit and added more with the weight (razors and pole spikes to keep it a MW)
398.6kg still

Veering is determined by weight distribution when you put the wheels on. As in, if you put the wheels on when the bot is not evenly balanced and then proceed to make it evenly balanced later on, it'll still veer.

I like the skin

Or the veering could be caused by placing the motors too far apart from each other in terms of being parralel from each other.
Oh the bot looks to be a great rammer. Off to a good start so far in terms of building.

Love the skin.
Pole spikes only deal damage with the tip so they probably don't work very well on the end of weapon racks.
