I failed the test but i did make it better. I think this is good enough so no more improvements for now. I may rebuild it though

7 Razors and 3 DDTs

Try and smallen that chassis by putting the wheels on the outside and squish the bot lenghways

Line up all the DDT's in a row Across the bot, then you'll be able to make the chassis smaller

As I said i will rebuild that bot although for now their is a new Middleweight. Here is the Face Spinner, Furtige
Outside

Inside

This needs to be invertible, and the discs are too large for it to be invertible.

Try to get wedges and use shiny hub wheels.

Also, you might want to learn the 3 basics: Axle load, snapper load and battery stacking, just in case you might need them in future builds.

Theres something off about that one, just can't put my finger on it.

THE ASYMMETRY

IT BUUUUUUURRRRRRRNNNNSSSSS

Build the chassis around your components, not the other way around.

Poor skinning is poor

use shiny hub wheels.

Judging the size of the chassis, what about N-12's?

NFX · « **Reply #32 on:** January 01, 2011, 07:15:12 AM »

N-12's look cool, but suck. Always use shinies, they're much lower weight than all other wheels. If you want a low ground clearance/better wedges, then use rubbers. If you're wanting an invertible HS or something similar, use grannies.

My last bot did have shiny hubs. Here is my next bot, Bite my Bot
Outside

Inside

6 Razors.
I also have some questions about my bot building.
1) Should I stay at Starcore or go To Inf`s or Pys`s AI Packs for different designs?
2) Who do I build like on this forum?

NFX · « **Reply #34 on:** January 01, 2011, 05:11:48 PM »

I'm wondering how many batteries it has, and what armour it is as well.

1) Inf and Pys' AI packs are much harder than Starcore, but I think Starcore has more different designs. Not sure, though.
2) I'm not sure who you build like, really, it's a fairly generic rookie building style. If you lurk around and look at the setups of some bots, you should pick up some new ideas.

It has one batt and DSA armour like all bots i make.
Also what does generic mean?

Scorpion · « **Reply #36 on:** January 01, 2011, 05:18:11 PM »

Generic means dull, boring, sh** basically, it was an incredibly insulting thing for NFX to say and I think you should hate on him for it as it's one of the most horrible things you can say to anbody.

Anyway, that bot's got faaar to much empty space to be any good.

NFX · « **Reply #37 on:** January 01, 2011, 06:09:29 PM »

I didn't mean anything bad by it, I just meant that it was a fairly newcomer style. He is improving, he's learning, but he's not quite there yet, if you get my drift. If he gets rid of the unnecessary empty space, that might make his bots look a bit better.

Ben Purse · « **Reply #38 on:** January 01, 2011, 06:14:08 PM »

Thats ok. Here here my lightweight HS Glory

NFX · « **Reply #39 on:** January 01, 2011, 06:36:20 PM »

That's actually not that bad. First thing you'd want to do is rotate the first round extenders 90 degrees, so the other one attaches directly below it. And eFFe them on (hover them over the attachment point, spin the motor, then click to attach) so you can get the razors hitting the opponent at the same time. That should considerably increase your damage on this bot.
