It's not bad.
Aye, but "not bad" isn't the same as "good", so it still needs major improvements

You could try raising components with the Ctrl button. That would allow you to use all the space in the bot.

But the best way you could improve this is with your extender setup. At the moment, you could remove all the forward-facing 20cm extenders, and just attach the irons straight on. You could also use the second attachment point on the extenders to attach twice the amount of Irons facing forwards, giving you more damage.
 
Scrap makes a good point about wheels. Combining 6WD speed and traction with the Piston's force should give you a lot more damage.

For example, She doesn't need that many red extenders.
Also, I have a feeling this bot is a weird T-Mobile clone o__O

No no, not a clone as such, though their designs are similar. This one was just playing around with extenders to see if I could get them lined up correctly.

But yes, this one can climb up walls too. Horay for similar wheel structure

So, on suggestion of JD, I made a replica :3

Here's the original - Absolute Spike Defense by Suzaku

Fixed. Spell it wrong again and I'll kill you. K? :3

Anyway, it's a replica - it's meant to look as close to Suzaku's bot as possible :3

Shamless plug FTW.

Bot is indeed pretty good, but you can shrink the chassis and get some caster armour.

But it's a replica - I built it how Suzaku had made it.

I'll be making improvements tomorrow :3

The other bot has a better chassis though.

The way I saw it, each "arm" was 3 squares by two squares

See if you can make the arms slightly shorter, as well as maybe thinning the arms to an extent which still lets you add HP-Zteks. It should only be about two pixels in distance from the grid.

Put some casters on the bottom to eat up weight and protect you from popups. Otherwise, it looks GHEYYY great.
