snow plows do nothing on HS because they don't do damage to other weapons (as far as I remember) but maybe a ramplate could be good

2 ramplates aren't big enough to cover the entire front. Although, if I angle them it will make the bot cooler.......

Guess what bot this bot's tributing.
skrzak

should I downgrade to normal Z-teks to get grannies and 2 snowplows ?
Snowplows make HS much easier for popups to get under. As long as it's invertible there's no reason to get grannies either.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

i'm very late but it's happy returns right? saw the name of yours and instantly thought of it, though not quite sure why it deserves a tribute

more on-topic: ORGYBEAR looks sick. i would keep the hpz's because the extra torque is nice, on another note you can trade the casters for frontal armour or weapons since the bottom spinners should knock away most wedges trying to get under. drive motors and wheels are kinda exposed

Yes you're right it is Happy Returns !

And no the bottom spinners can't knock away wedges and with a chassis this small I can't risk getting OHKOed.

What do you mean ? The hybrid combo ? It actually works pretty well since if the VS gets locked then the hammer can freely hit the top and if VS gets to lift the opponent then the hammer turns into a pseudo-popup and hits it's bottom.

It does ? It would appear the hammer striking down would interfere with the VS lifting opponents.

Nah I bet half of the time the hammer prevents the VS from flinging bots upward and causes the motors to get stuck. It should work as you say in theory, but the hammer isn't curved enough and you're already at the weight limit.

You could try a single motor setup and see if it's better.

No doubt about it being cool. But it's just that this particular hybrid is counterintuitive.

1 black and 2 normal airtanks

I was trying to do a remake of Meteor for Thrackerzod's Parking Lot tourney and Starcore V4 but then I realized that this thing is way too different from Meteor. The 1 problem this bot has is that it takes way too long for the bot to land on it's feet, so against faster bots it just gets rushed down.

Nice original bot.

Seems like it needs more HP in stabilizers though.

I know that, but how do I get the weight for them? If I take out a razor on the hammer then it's much less reliable at OHKO/sniping game-winning parts which is absolutely crucial since on average you only get 2 tries, if I downgrade the drive then it'll even longer for the bot to get on its feet, and if I remove an airtank then the hammer has less power.

Post some clear shots of your extender work. I reckon there's 10-12 kg that can be shaved off from there but I'm not quite sure if it's worth downgrading to plastic for an extra set of plows.

Maybe replace the red extenders you have the drive mounted on with 140cm Square extenders?
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.
