Find in Clickbeetle's Showcase when he posted Heaven's Sawmill. Look at its back stabilizers. Thats how you make a good rear stabilizer.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

sorry but i say 5...
battle axe on the back doesnt have to be used as a stabilizer, take that off! all you have to do is just turn on the spinners when the enemy bot is on your wedges, thats what i have to do with my newest bot like that. or if you plan on AI'ing it then do what was suggested above an copy heavens sawmill stabilizer setup  :gawe:

and before i go /facepalm...weight limit man! get it atleast close to 780!

I never see how people can't make it to the weight limit. I always have trouble staying inside of it >.>
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Too much empty space, could probably fit a Nifty in there, don't use Y connectors, and try to use Mowers instead of Ramplates. And you posted the picture on the left of the splash twice.    :(

Yeah right? I hate when I have a great idea and run out of weight.
 
Then the chassis shaving begins... :rage

he used the Y connector to get more range out of the spikes, and using a lawnmower blade instead of a ramplate...? ramplate protects the whole front slopes, while the lawnmower blade covers like 3/8 of the front?

Remove pinks, and replace the battleaxe with a series of extenders to keep it stable, possibly with a iron on the end. Put your spinners on burst motors, maybe another snapper, they'll spin MUCH faster. 2 stacked Blackvolts is a must in this bot, and swap the snapper wedges for DDT's, I think, and that should eat up most of the weight left over.

IDK, it looks like he just put some random comments in his splash so he could feel good about himself.
