you would save weight if the drive was static
I don't think that SnowJob's chassis can fit 3 hpz... Can it?

But I have BAs obstructing that. :P

You don't need the side BAs anyway. AT MOST you'll need 2 BAs and a SnapperII in the middle for 3-4 racks. It will be more generic, though.

Well, I felt like revisiting Nightshade (for those of you who don't know, Nightshade was my first showcased bot), and also making a bot without a chassis wedge, so here you go!

And also, Gravitic Reversal, 1 year anniversary edition!

VS way is too small for its own good, and there has to be a better way to mount the weapon motor. Extender could def be simplified as well.

The popup definitely look's better, if a little on the bland side.

A new bot! Finally! This is going to Emergency Exit, where it has no chance of winning!

Plastic.
It goes ding when there's no longer stuff.
Also, how do people get shovels on these things?! Or are they using normal Z-Teks? XD

Do you see droves Middleweights of with 180kgs of weaponry and a plow?

Ahhhhhhh, I see my mistake.

Looking at the bots I was thinking of, they have less than that. The way I've seen them, it looked like they did XD

considering how tough emergency's DSS chassis is, i'd say this can't KO emergency in 1min30.

I wanted to wait until 09's tourney left signups (as it's my secondary entry) to upload this:

Fun fact: This was supposed to be my GTMCS entry! It actually took that long to get this stack.

You should consider switching the maces out for irons; iron have more range (and therefore tip speed) to them and the tribars don't need the extra protection of the maces.

Pwnator · « **Reply #211 on:** April 10, 2017, 12:39:10 AM »

Use 0-degree anchors instead of the 90-degree anchors you got there. You'll pull that plow placement off with an 80cm and a 20cm so maybe you could use the free weight to center the wedge.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #212 on:** April 10, 2017, 01:09:44 AM »

it is an impressive stack. im not sure where your weight has gone but if you can get hpzs do so. you only need one black, i'm not sure if you have one or two

It's only one blackvolt. Actually, I like your idea Pwnator, thanks!
Actually, I may be able to get hpz with that, idk tho.
Centering the wedge may be impossible, pwn. I had to put it on the snapper(not enough chassis room :P).

Oh, hey, that Silverfish guy built a bot. I thought he retired.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #215 on:** May 28, 2017, 08:17:56 AM »

Not sure what that's going to beat? The wedges will be pretty bad with the single motor and it only has 4 weapons.

???
What motor are you talking about? The wedges aren't attached to the snapper II, if that's what you mean.
Otherwise, kinda just an experiment with doing mw jugglers.

Badger · « **Reply #217 on:** May 28, 2017, 12:13:08 PM »

Steep wedge and not much weaponry means it won't be a very good bot, the only way its gonna get kills is by outwedging a popup. And the single spinner means that it'll just push bots off the top instead of juggling them. Maybe try having 2 spinners on RADs or redbirds instead?

I'll take a look at that. I'm not that good at jugglers, this is my second. XD

I don't see that being effective at all, but it is neat i guess.
