I think there needs to be more testing on resistance. Also, Buzzards need a black skin.

It could be. I might look into that at some point.

Perhaps if the lower Iron was replaced with a razor, would that help at all? If the chassis was trimmed down a touch, you might get two irons and two razors on each arm, along with the mace at the end.

Resistance doesn't have anything to do with turn speed. It's more like how much the wheel slides. A low resistance means the wheel will 'slide' a lot... think drifting in a car. A wheel with high resistance means the turning will be crisper and more precise. Speed doesn't factor into it.

What this means for SnS is, if you have wheels with higher resistance, the bot will tend to stay in one place more and not drift across the arena. Could be a good thing if you want to avoid hazards, but could be a bad thing if you want to avoid immobility.

MW juggler, nothing too spectacular. Might be an entry into RoboLeague. Possibly along with a Skrzak update too.

*Totally did not shamelessly klone one of Geice's setups*

Looks very nice. Doesn't have Bounty Hunter Syndrome, does it?

Am I the only one here who has no clue what Bounty-Hunter syndrome is exactly?

Really no one knows about it except NFX, and it's when Snapper II wedges suck because they have a bunch of stuff attached to the secret attachment point.

From what I've heard it's attaching your dive to the hidden attachment point on the Snapper II and causing poor wedges.

Doesn't it have 3 attachment points, though?

Yeah but only one of the secret ones can be used per Snapper II.

Well yea, it has to attach to the chassis somehow!

It's like what Bounty Hunter had in BBEANS 5, where you attach a nice extender setup, with drive, weaponry, etc. on the secret AP of the SnapperII, and using the normal AP to create a wedge from. Because the wedges are effectively static in comparison to the drive motors and such, they're not actually very good, as opposed to if they'd been used solely for wedges, where they may have been somewhat okay. Bounty Hunter Syndrome's just what I call it, it's easier than having to explain it every time.

Awesome, AWESOME bot.

Beautiful

Nothing too special, just another MW VS.

DSA, 100cm discs, the works. Setup is pretty simple, just 3 20cms and a 40cm extender. Turning actually isn't a big problem, despite the near-vertical chassis.

Comments?

FOTEPX · « **Reply #377 on:** July 04, 2011, 02:50:37 AM »

Aww, it's cute...

and BADASS.

I'd probably move the caster down though.

NFX · « **Reply #378 on:** July 04, 2011, 04:38:46 AM »

The maces at the back look a little bit pointless to me. I might swap them for razors, and get a second caster on the underside.

R0B0SH4RK · « **Reply #379 on:** July 04, 2011, 11:04:49 AM »

The maces protect the setup that holds on the blades. Without that apparatus, the bot falls over.
