It's... big?

Amusingly, this is a extremely common design for stock newbies.

Use round extenders, they're really much better than any other extender in stock. Excepted for spinners.

Rule of thumb : try to make your bot the lightest possible without compromising any of it's qualities (offense, defense, speed, looks, etc)

no can do with the round extenders, there's no way to gauge where the two attachment points are facing, so it's complete guesswork.

if you rotate components they are turned by 10° aka you have to turn the extenter 9 tome to make it 90°. you just have to find out which direction you have to turn.

Yes you can, no there is, and no it's not. You think i'm giving you crap advice ? There is a way to gauge where the AP's are facing. Try switching attachment points when you make long racks of 20cm extenders to hold weapons.

Shrink the chassis so there's a near-airtight fit around your components. Then replace the batteries in there with a single black.

Check out my MW poker, Quote, to see what you should be doing (but of course you can use irons or razors instead of maces if they're easier to use):

Now you're doing it wrong with batteries... use just one nifty for 2 HPZ's. Don't change the drive. Put 2 weapons on each 20cm extender.

Also build to weight limit.

Also 1 large air tank is better than 2 small ones.

And you need a homogenous rack, so the weapons all hit at the same time.

whats with all this empty space around the picture ? we cant see anything at that angle, a topdown view would probably be better
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.

Use only razors. Rotate them more if you can't insert them.

after a certain point, they simply refuse to go in, that's why i used pole spikes instead of razors there, becaue razors wouldn't fit. no matter how much i twist them
