I give you: T.M.R.O.B.I.H.!

This is what happens when I get bored. It can drive backwards up walls and hang onto them to keep from falling off, it crosses the combat zone arena in under a second, and it can throw robots all over the place in tabletop fights. What do you think?

Chain those wheels, and add weapons.

Get rid of the pink batteries and at least put a couple of spikes on there for minimal damage ... TWELVE Z-Teks????????? Put 'em on one of the Snappers so you can rotate them in and out.

Chained spinners have absolutely no torque. And it takes so long to spin up that there is no arena big enough to get to full speed.

Huh? I've made a chained Z tek drive before, and it worked perfectly.

Then it must be different from spinners.

It's a sumo/tabletop bot, I don't need to do damage. All the Starcore bots are off the arena before they can even take off the blade.

Even wedges?

It would be possible to make that bot lighter and more compact by putting the motors on burst motors and glitching them on. There's something to be said for the good old-fashioned way too, however. I've noticed that bots with drive on burst motors tend to be harder to control. For 800-kg bots without glitching, that's definitely the most drive motors I've seen.
