ok, and maybe, just maybe, after that i MAYBE can stack an extra black in there too.



MW HS only need one black. more weapons or armor is better.

thanks, naryar!

anyway, i think this is my half of the team for the ra2 league(creepalot and i are going as a team). It's a pretty simple hw popup, Gravitic Reversal 2! (i scrapped the first version because it sucked eggs).



And the Internals:



EDIT: and yes, i know that one of us cannot make a popup, creepalot isn't.

the bot is too short. i've tried. it impedes the drive.

EDIT: one sideways, however, worked.

You could attach your DDTs to the snapper II setup that the drive is on. You could then do an external setup for the ramplates with multiextenders, or possibly caster armour.

make sure all the razors face the same way to maximize damage potential.

imo, the chassis is a bit bulky(unless the standard armor is plastic for hses). is that correct?

You should be able to get 36 Maces, 2 Blacks, 2 HPZ Drive and DSA. Try working on your setup to save some weight.
Hint: Don't use 4 snappers.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

adding to what s_m said, here's a helpful guide sage posted awhile back. it's a little old, but still pretty helpful for building a traditional 36hs
The point of making a 36 HS is that you figure it our yourself to prove your skills. The rules are also fairly strict:

1. 36 weapons that weight 10 kgs each, ex. Iron Spikes and Maces. (You can, if you have the weight, add a frontal weapon for protection)

2. These 36 weapons will be on 4 tribars that are on 4 HP-Zteks.

3. The drive will be 2 HP-Zteks, usually with shiny hub wheels on them.

4. The power will be 2 Black Batteries.

5. This is optional, but you will get much more respect if you can make it invertible as well.


That said, I have built a lot of them and will you give you a few tips:

1. Pretty much the only way is to use two blue Snapper II's. There are two workable designs that use 2 servos and a few with one snapper II... but i already made those :P

2. You should learn snapper loading before you attempt this. (Look in my signature for a tutorial.)

3. There are many, many ways to do a setup for this type of bot (which is why they are fun to build) but it's becoming hard to come up with new ones as of late. I would suggest looking at other peoples versions and copying the design. After you make your first it's easier to design a new setup.

4. Come up with the setup in your head or on paper before even attempting it in game. This will usually help. The weight of the stuff is 762-766 kgs (depending on if you use 2 20cms or 4 20cms for your setup) so your chassis will have to be fairly small. The breakdown for the components is here:

360= Weapons

120= Weapon Motors

60= Drive Motors

60= Batteries

56= Tribars

48= Extenders for weapons

26= Snapper II's

24= Wheels (Shiny Hubs)

4-8= Extenders for setup

4= Control Board



Hope that helps!

made a 36hs, but it has a stability problem. and also, whenever i try to use the back extension point of a snapper II, it resets to being straight up whenever i go to the test garage and back. why is this happening?

You have to attach it in the position you want it to be in when the match starts.
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.
