I would advise flipping the tribar, and attaching the 2 extenders like this : tribar-= It will give it better reach.
                                                                                                           ^extenders
You could also try attaching the HPZ to a snapper (or anchor), and shinking the chassis to save weight for an extra razor.  ;)

If you can AI, try and make a personal AI pack for yourself to practice with, and gradually upgrade the AI bots as you get better.

That bot really isn't bad for someone who "suck(s) at 99% of games" If you had a nifty instead of a black, and had 6 eFFe'd maced on, it would be a good robot.

BTW, you'll end up looking back on your old bots and cringing if you name them after "fhanny interbutts meems" like that. I know that from personal experience.

I'd try making the chassis smaller and then stacking the baseplate anchors (which isn't too hard when it comes to BAs so just try it out) and then mount the drive off that.

If so, ill try it tomorrow.

I'd go RADs, shrink the chassis and try to get a plow on. Dunno if you'd get enough weight though, I'm out of stock practice.

Try mounting the motors inside the chassis, saving you the extender weight.
Title: Re: playzooki's terrible stock showcase
Post by: playzooki on April 05, 2014, 11:13:09 AM
actually what would save weight is getting a mouse and stacking the bas would save more, ill do that tonight

You should crop your images.

The bot, however, isn't bad. I would put the weapon motor inside the chassis, though.

casters are useless

don't think you need 2 blacks as well.

too much razors, stick to maximum 4 per DDT

Title: Re: playzooki's terrible stock showcase
Post by: Pwnator on April 06, 2014, 10:13:31 PM
Much better. Ideally you would want 2 blacks in there, although if you wanna go along this route you can also improve it by making the chassis wedge shallower instead.
Title: Re: playzooki's terrible stock showcase
Post by: Badnik96 on April 06, 2014, 11:34:21 PM
Try shortening the wedge, getting rid of a few razors and adding a ramplate at the front. That might help.

You're relying on a short single-wedged bot to get under bots twice its weight? Aim a bit lower, dude. It looks good enough.

I thought that was what you guys used? also the red extenders are because im using sages skin pack and it has a green mark where the ap is. Ill test it against the wedge mws tonight. or maybe earlier.

Did you clone the tutorial rammer on the BeetleBros website? (Nothing wrong with that. Still a good build.)

Nice job stacking the blacks. Does it have DSA?

Also, you should angle the icepicks so they touch the ground (if you haven't already)
Title: Re: playzooki's terrible stock showcase

Post by: ty4er on August 23, 2014, 03:46:30 PM
make the entire chassis smaller, then move the ba right to the edge of the chassis (exostack if you can) and use 1 extender for the plow and maybe 1 extender for the weapon rads if you can.
Title: Re: playzooki's terrible stock showcase
Post by: Virus Bomb on August 23, 2014, 05:12:34 PM

Yeah, that.

Honestly, after you're done with this bot, I would export it as "Child's Play Clone" and then rebuild it to be original. Do something CUHRAZY and WHUACKY to be original like putting the drive on the outside of the chassis or getting rid of the plow for better drive, or using casters instead of a plow.

Put the anchors flush against the chassis so you'll have weight for HPZs, also shrink the chassis a bit.
But not bad. :)

Post by: RedAce on December 17, 2015, 03:34:24 PM
Not bad.  I you want to use up some weight, you could snapper load the HPZ onto the Snapper Axle itself, rather than a separate extender and then you could attach some claws after.

Also, I feel you might be able to turn the RADs inward so the wheels won't be as exposed.  Okay, maybe not, but that might help out with combat in general.

thanks, ill try the snapper loading thing. imo turning the rads inward will not work well as it will make turning slower.

weapon work can be lightened by 4kg by attaching every weapon to the same red extender.

you may find it worthwhile to go plastic and use hpz's. maybe longer pistons ? i think stock pistons have the same weight ?

also that outside red extender is a bit exposed. put a weapon on the extremity.
