In my opinion, it is. I wanted to make a stock version of SnSnSnSnS and at the same time make a variation of Hurricane, but for some reason it looked too much like Whirlpool. D:

You managed to put DSA on that ? I built a similar thing a while ago, and i never had the weight to put rubbers - it had shinies.

Pwnator · « **Reply #242 on:** September 05, 2009, 08:58:54 AM »

Yep. I had to stack the CB in the black to get the rubbers.

Vowel was too unstable to use shinies, and I had a little extra space...

blah. Inf did this a year and a half ago.

blah. Lugnut would be like this is I didn't make it an octogon.

Octagon??? o_O

Oh well, told you it was cheap. XD

Time for a more creative-ish bot.

Still using the original Impulse chassis, now at its fourth version. It now has a better plow and drive setup, giving it invertability. The only con I see is plastic armour.

Oh yeah, no one guessed the setup yet. XD

Also RAD's with iron spikes dont 'pick up' bots as well as they do with razor tips.

Pwnator · « **Reply #248 on:** September 05, 2009, 10:33:48 PM »

Hmmm... I'll make undercutter variants soon. :D

somestrangeguy · « **Reply #249 on:** September 06, 2009, 08:35:44 AM »

Is this the setup?

What I think you did is that you have those drive motors attached to these slightly upwards angled 20cm extenders and in beetween you have rotated the 20cm extender so that its straight towards the front and attached 20cm extenders there and then the weapon motors.

Altough there is that unexplained additional 20cm extender in your pic attached to the 20cm extender for the snowplow.

Also: ALL HAIL EPIC PAINT SKILLZ!

Pwnator · « **Reply #250 on:** September 06, 2009, 08:41:59 AM »

Yay! You got it! *hands over virtual cookie*

The weird extender angle for the plow is to get the plow at the right height to ensure invertibility. And I just found out that it can drive straight with the plow set up that way (all the previous dual-tribar Impulses drift slightly to the left). XD

DP!

Whipped this up originally for fun. I kinda tweaked it a bit for the Homage Series.

This is Mercenary. 24 razors, 1 black, the rest is visible. It was supposed to be an amalgam of Spearhead and Blade Wave, but it looked more like BW in the end. I was very lucky to stack the CB in between the tank and the black (that only happened to me twice. I was also able to attach an anchor halfway outside this chassis). And I still couldn't figure out why my pistons hardly get knocked off (usually the plows or the middle razor extenders fall off first). Wedges are decent, but when I fire the pistons too often, the whole bot vibrates rapidly (I dunno why).

probably a havok

Pwnator · « **Reply #253 on:** September 06, 2009, 11:55:50 AM »

A havok with the piston still in place? o_O

roboman2444 · « **Reply #254 on:** September 06, 2009, 11:57:34 AM »

i think it happedn to me once... but the pistons were connected to snappers

Pwnator · « **Reply #255 on:** September 06, 2009, 12:03:48 PM »

Axles on axles/bursts and pistons on bursts usually have havoks. Pistons, bursts and axles aren't supposed to havok when they're attached to an anchor. o_o

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #256 on:** September 06, 2009, 03:07:33 PM »

would be better with pistons back farther.

and dont worry about roboman, everyone on the forum should generally ignore him anyways.

Naryar · « **Reply #257 on:** September 06, 2009, 03:11:29 PM »

I saw the thing, i so immediately thought Blade Wave...

And yes, these pistons are very exposed.

somestrangeguy · « **Reply #258 on:** September 06, 2009, 04:58:08 PM »

Very nice bot there. I also saw Spearhead in that.

I tought that the pistons are too exposed, but if they dont fall off most of the time, it should be ok.

I also tought that why I had not tought up of placing the pistons outside, instead of using chassis space. If you dont mind, I might clone this setup if I make a Spearhead 2.
