strangely looks exactly like the old AC

Somebody · « **Reply #281 on:** April 06, 2009, 02:26:09 PM »

no, this is a product of 3 failed attempts and a very boring math class.

Venko's bot Anti-Pacman has an... interesting attachment point for his HP Z-Tek

Venko, please explain to me how you attached this Z-Tek.

For those who don't know what to look at, it is just an extender off of the Snapper2 , with the Z-Tek floating under it.

lol it uses the bottom attachment point for the z-tek:

the top attachment point just has an extender coming off it.

Nice idea. Extender armour.

Somebody · « **Reply #285 on:** April 18, 2009, 10:59:26 AM »

OMG 3rd attachment point!

System32 · « **Reply #286 on:** April 18, 2009, 11:34:53 AM »

... Everyone knows that. Attachment Fail.

Wait, you didn't know that?

Hell, i knew you're really not quick in learning Stock bot building, Somebody, but i never thought you would be that ignorant...

Somebody · « **Reply #289 on:** April 18, 2009, 12:50:19 PM »

Fine, but you guys didn't have to make me feel so bad about it

System32 · « **Reply #290 on:** April 18, 2009, 01:24:02 PM »

Naryar makes everyone feel bad about their showcase, it's just him.

...

HAHA YOU DIDN'T KNOW! NA NA NAA NA NAH!

Kidding.

I will recommend this setup for your HS, since its possible and will make your chassis significantly smaller...

My showcase have good things in it, but too badly its spammed a lot, so everyone don't have much interest to look at it...

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #292 on:** April 18, 2009, 04:43:43 PM »

...WOW

Somebody · « **Reply #293 on:** April 19, 2009, 05:42:43 AM »

I actually tried that setup before, but I just couldn't get the Snapper2 stacked in it. And it all fit perfectly too...

Urjak · « **Reply #294 on:** April 19, 2009, 11:08:58 AM »

I didn't mean to make you feel bad Somebody, I was actually wondering whether you were refering to a whole other attachment point I had not idea about.

Somebody · « **Reply #295 on:** April 25, 2009, 12:23:10 PM »

Well I talked with Starcore about a team for SCv4, and he said that he would like different kinds of bots basically, and one thing included was flippers. I could do a Rupter, but that seems a bit to generic. I got to thinking how I could build a pure flipper, that would be effective. It took me a couple of days, but I got the design. After checking what Venko made which was that the DDTs can lift 320 each, I knew that I needed at least 4
I started building and this is what I got: Silo
DSA
4 black batteries
wedges that are as good as 321 Blastoffs
4 DDTs
4 HP Z-Teks

And I have something to be showcased soon that involves my first bot (Atomic) and 3-2-1 Blastoff!

System32 · « **Reply #296 on:** April 25, 2009, 12:47:21 PM »

I like it. Not sure if others will, due to the upside down wedge.

Somebody · « **Reply #297 on:** April 25, 2009, 12:56:42 PM »

It has to be that way or it is too steep.

System32 · « **Reply #298 on:** April 25, 2009, 01:10:42 PM »

I know.

somestrangeguy · « **Reply #299 on:** April 25, 2009, 02:59:16 PM »

I like it, not too many pure flippers these days.
Might be because most matches are fought in Combat Arena and flippers arent much effective there.
