Any help?

Didn't Heaven's Sawmill have a triangular chassis?

Take my bot Liberator off the exchange to see how a Heaven's Sawmill-type bot should be done, and go from there.

dat chassis is so big.

Doesnt look like much of a good idea really.

RpJk · « **Reply #624 on:** August 26, 2011, 02:08:21 PM »

Ok leaving that idea for another day because I am going back and improving the LW VS.

I gave it a name: Psynergetic Theory 4.5. (Its old name was called Thumpernail)
I also skinned the Snowplow to make it a reference to another game. (Ironbot entry has a reference as well and the first part of the name)

It is really good but it is unstable and I don't want to get rid of the snowplow so Any help?

Side stabilizers is what you need.
Use up the spare weight for them.

Better version of my LW VS. Still needs a wedge.

RpJk · « **Reply #627 on:** September 01, 2011, 06:50:17 AM »

DP. Any Help?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #628 on:** September 01, 2011, 06:51:30 AM »

Yeah, make it wedge less, ie. side stabilisers instead of front plow.

RpJk · « **Reply #629 on:** September 01, 2011, 07:08:12 AM »

A set up like this?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #630 on:** September 01, 2011, 07:09:55 AM »

Without the wedge and with less exposed extender work, you could also get a caster on the front.

RpJk · « **Reply #631 on:** September 01, 2011, 07:24:48 AM »

Better?

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #632 on:** September 01, 2011, 07:52:54 AM »

No. The snowplow version was better/less-of-a-clone. The extender work is just bad on the others. And the drive setup is pretty bad like that.

RpJk · « **Reply #633 on:** September 01, 2011, 08:03:50 AM »

But won't I need a wedge on the snowplow version?

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #634 on:** September 01, 2011, 08:23:50 AM »

A good, efficient wedge? Sorry, not possible for a LW VS.

RpJk · « **Reply #635 on:** September 01, 2011, 08:25:53 AM »

Then what should I do with the Snowplow version of the bot?

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #636 on:** September 01, 2011, 08:33:08 AM »

Keep it if you like it? Or redesign it as you see fit? IDK, I am not your conscience.

RpJk · « **Reply #637 on:** September 10, 2011, 05:19:36 AM »

Ok introducing another robot that needs bucket loads of help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tried to make a LW rammer but went to over weight.

Also I tried stacking the CB but does not work Took it away before I took the picture.

ty4er · « **Reply #638 on:** September 10, 2011, 05:21:18 AM »

get rid of the plow.

And i don't like that chassis shape much.

and swap the angle for a normal extender

Avalanche · « **Reply #639 on:** September 10, 2011, 05:40:31 AM »

Try try again to stack.Or slightly raise teh height of the chassis and place cb ontop of teh nifty, not best idea.
