How come no-one ever noticed these until now?? They should have been noticed years ago since components folder has been modified more than alot in the past.
I think they shouldnt be considered as stock but as special parts that can be enabled for use in tournament rules if someone wants them to be used.

The thing badnik showed needs a .txt file.

I am also quite surprised.

I saw these gmf's, especially the second redbird, but did not really bothered about it.

I saw that extender, but i didn't know how to count guess, i thought there were seven in normal gameplay...

The Beta redbird is slower than a RAD and can't be attach to a baseplate anchor.
Anyway, I just released a CFZ with them in it.

Since the 140 cm extender only has half of a collision mesh, if it is to be legal, it should be the 35 kg it comes as. Balance the invulnerability with lots of weight.

That's a good idea ROBO. Everyone good with that?

090901 · « **Reply #567 on:** May 02, 2010, 08:17:29 PM »

yeah, sure.
I just discovered the 140cm Square Extender weighs 5kg and is not cut off!

someone needs to sticky a topic like this

Fine with me.

Really felt like building something intricate. Had an idea for a popup built off some snappers, and went ahead and did it. Took forever, much planning, and many snapper loads. When I finally finished... it was 770.3. It had two black batts. I had planned for 3. FFUUUUU-
So anyways, don't feel like rebuilding it quite yet just to shave off .4 kgs of weight on the chassis. Thought I'd show the awesomeness xD

4 DDTs with 3 razors on each, DDT wedges, 3 blacks, 799.9 6 ramplates, 4hpz drive. DSA.

*Jaw drops*

Wow. Just wow. That looks great. Nice skins too. :)

*Insert R0B0 smiley here*

It looks better than Hot Wheels. *drools*

Oh, and the wedges aren't at the same height. D:

That happens all the time in stock

Pwnator · « **Reply #574 on:** May 15, 2010, 03:49:47 AM »

That usually doesn't happen for Snapper II and DDT wedges. Snapper2 wedges are prone to this.

090901 · « **Reply #575 on:** May 15, 2010, 10:31:29 AM »

It seems that if the wedges are on the snapper2's they wobble around a lot and kill the wedge.

NFX · « **Reply #576 on:** May 15, 2010, 10:55:29 AM »

Yeah, I've found that out myself. Nonetheless, looks like an awesome bot. :D

One of the wedges seems to be too high up.

It looks cool, how are the wedges? Anytime I try to make something like this I just get a bunch of AGOD.

Sage · « **Reply #578 on:** May 15, 2010, 06:07:18 PM »

Yea it was like 1 AM when I finished it... I don't blame myself for not getting the wedges right xD

Still has some problems (doesn't drive straight, for one) so I can't test the wedges and stuff.
One thing I really like about this design is that the chassis isn't wedged, so HS can't hit the chassis unless all the ramplates are gone :D

lookin coolio sagey, but might be too complicated for its own good.
