Well, he did use DSA for his first bot, so this one should be DSA as well.

Yes, Somebody, It is using DSA. I'm also seeing a lot of people with SCv4 but it doesn't appear to be on Starcore's website available for download.
Where do I get it? I'm confused:?.

Unfortunately, thanks to Ribbs' recent discovery, half of my primary team's robots (signature team, actually) have been put on hiatus. Here's one of the few robots that remain: Devil's Rosebush:
Your average 36-Mace, Including:
-DSA
-Servo-mounted weaponry
-HPZ drive with shiny hub wheels
-2 Supervolts
I've built other 36-mace HSs; this one's quite outdated, but still pretty good.

I'm assuming no one has anything to say about my last bot, so I'm going to move on. Here's Disembowelment, my LW popup:
Reversible angle motors with shiny hub wheels
1 supervolt
4 razors on a snapper2
Snapper II wedge
For armor, castors and either plastic or DSA (I can't remember which one, probably the latter)
It has a very powerful weapon, but it's not very fast or wedgy. The castor armor was to defend against HS, but it only proved to be a waste of weight and wouldn't allow opponents to climb up on the wedge. The wheels are exposed as well.

Well done, but I'd swap the castor armour for at least RedBird drive.

Though not really that efficient, birds are still faster than RADs and popups like to be fast.

I'll try, but I am most likely to redesign the entire robot in the process. At least it might make it wedgier.

Basically the same as the first one. However, it now uses Redbirds, rubber wheels, and DSA, and the front is now really exposed.
What do you think R0B0SH4RK?

I think you can trim the chassis a little. Instead of using an eight point chassis (that means there are eight verticies on your base), use 6, like your previous bot. Narrow the back end so that there is just enough room (the motors should almost be touching) for drive. Move the black battery back too, so you can hopefully make the chassis wedge longer. You can snapper-load the wedge on. Also centre the wedge. You probably don't need rubber wheels either. Switch back to shinies and mabye add another razor.
I'm getting into the really nit-picky stuff now, which is good. There's always room for improvement though :)

Personally like v1 better. While speed is good on a popup, RAD drive isn't TOO shabby on a LW, and v2 is really exposed as you said. It's even more vulnerable to HSs, with that long side.
EDIT: Just read V1's caster armour didn't do so much. Try moving it around.

I was originally planning to place the black battery toward the back and snapper load the wedge on, but then I read that having weight in the front of your wedge makes it more effective. the reason the wedge wasn't centered was because I could not move the snapper anymore to the side.
Still, thanks for the advice. I'll see what I can do.
