Okay, Sparkey, here's what you do:

First of all, take the first extender on the DDT and mount it sideways, like this:
_
X

Put more extenders on it the same way, make sure the connection points all face upwards, like this:

_____
X

Then you can stick 8 razors on that setup. More damage and such. =)

Also, do the Snapper'd Z-Teks not wobble around when you drive? 'Cause I tried something like that and the bot was all over the place.

That actually looked pretty good.

But then again, make your wedge like this:

And not like this:

Such a small degree of change in the angle can determine the victory or defeat against Absolute Chaos.

Add razors like NFX illustrated, and if you still have free weight, add a blade on each wedge extender like PitA 8 for protection.

Ramplates are useless, can we have a view of the rear?

You've

A) Got them at the wrong angle, and

B) They're behind the chassis, so won't stop anything.

He means that the ramplates should protect the chassis and not catch the robots.

NFX · « **Reply #1090 on:** May 03, 2010, 02:43:25 PM »

Ramplates should definitely be at the front. In fact, try and two more on there, you've got more than enough weight. Or make it 4 wheel drive.

Why is that one worse than the one before it?

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #1092 on:** May 03, 2010, 04:08:26 PM »

why do you ask things like that?

NFX · « **Reply #1093 on:** May 03, 2010, 06:19:53 PM »

1. Attach the extenders and razors to the DDTs like I showed you
2. Put the ramplates on the front like in the first one
That should make it a much better bot.

Incidentally, what do you have on the other side of the bot where the motor should be in that pic?

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #1094 on:** May 03, 2010, 06:33:47 PM »

if I put more razors on it would ruin the design I'm goin for, look at the first bot in Sages showcase........

inplabth · « **Reply #1095 on:** May 03, 2010, 07:02:22 PM »

Even like that you should be able to get 4 razors on each DDT.

(Unless you already have. If so, then ignore this)

Sage · « **Reply #1096 on:** May 03, 2010, 08:16:10 PM »

My design has 4 razors on each but still looks like it has 2.

inplabth · « **Reply #1097 on:** May 03, 2010, 09:45:56 PM »

Yeah, I noticed that when I looked at your showcase. Nice dodge of the rule of 7.

It'll really take a

of a lot of time to make him build a good popup...

Now in 1 year he'll build a 36-iron.

Pwnator · « **Reply #1099 on:** May 04, 2010, 01:37:57 AM »

36-iron is vague. He built a 36 mace some time ago, but it was a SHW and only had 1 HPZ for the drive. :P
