Wow, you're out of the loop.

Epic 4 way (lawl) helicopter brawl between myself, Pwn, Sage and Scrap. CHECK THE CHALLENGE BOARD.

I'm not even worried about Sage. He lost to Scrap (who sucks, btw) so he's obviously a noob.

Ah, good old trash talk.

This is going to be epic. I like the wheelguards as well, and it reminds me a fair bit of Iron Storm 5.

Wouldn't maces be better ?

No idea where to use the weight. :P

But I already kinda sorta fixed it. XD

AND A NEW BOT WITH AN OLD CHASSIS! AGAIN!

VELOCIRAPTOR CLINTTHRUST (Top Gear fans should know what I'm talking about)! 2 blacks, AND YES THAT IS A WORKING COUNTERWEIGHT SYSTEM!

And I'm too lazy to thoroughly test it, but preliminary runs show that it has decent wedges and a pretty nasty ramming rack. And BEAR kept on eating the hammer arm. Which is annoying. Gah.

[Edit] If you're wondering why that setup looks so familiar, it's because I stole the chassis from my old AWTH clone (and a sucky and AGODed one at that).

I FOUND WALDO!

Also, EPIC NAME.

What does the counterweight system do?

Curve extenders moar to protect against bear, and maybe have more irons slanted up or a plow to keep bots down.

Makes it easier to retract the arm because it's too long.

I'll probably remove one sledge for a plow and some moar weapons... later. Still too lazy. XD

IMO it needs moar 45-degree-angled vertical irons to trap better.

Most likely better than my bot though.

Unfortunately this just feels like a cut-rate DEADBEAT with a weapon rack instead of casters. >.<

And I'm not entirely satisfied with this Backyard Ripper rebuild either:

2 blacks, Snapper2 wedges, and everything's static except for the drive (which is servo-boosted). Will revise it later with the drive pushed inwards and hopefully better wedges.
