Probably the first stock fbs posted in a while.




2 niftys, dsa, bunch of razors

originally had flails and pistons but it took to long to spin up to be any good. I also wonder what bursts click used on thunder cloud, because this uses a blue snapper that loves to flex a lot.

My first trinity SnS


Lujo

1 black, dsa. beats pretty much anything that isn't an HS and delivers some big hits (highest was over 10,000 IIRC).

2 bots in one day :gawe:


Unit 357

1 black, dsa, 36 irons. Not nearly as good as Lujo but it can hold its own well. For some reason I don't want grannys on this and I'm .3 kgs away from giving this another black so it will be rebuilt.

Love the custom skin.

You could try removing the razors located next to the HPs to give you room for that 2nd Black.
(IMO, they seem a little un-needed)

J- he can just minimize the chassis a bit, lose .3kg, and add the second black. No need to remove 21 kgs of weight :/
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Pssst Scrap I think you showcased this with the wrong account. :P I thought it was you, not vb who challenged Robo, Pwn, and sage.


@VB: Cool take on the 36 HS.

I dunno, I just figured with all the spinning, the tribals would always always knock the other robot around and not let it get a chance to actually hit the motors.
But ehhh....

As SKBT said, a very nice take on the 36HS. I take it it's a Sit n Spin as well, which means it should deal massive damage.

Thunder Cloud uses a DDT.


I tried recently to make a Thunder Cloud 5 with a Snapper II, invertibility, and flails, but couldn't get it to have controlled movement (the momentum of the spinning chassis twists the drive so it can't move forward).  How does that one do?

It has the same problems as yours. The drive would stop spinning after a while, but when I try to move forward, the drive starts spinning again and the bot moves around in tiny circles. I can kinda make it move forward by alternating between the forward & backward buttons, but it moves pretty slow.

Stock FBS are more of a come-to-me type bot like non Melty-Brain SnS and FSS, so mobility shouldn't be super important.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

Hottentotta

2 blacks, dsa. The razors are closer together than they are in the pic now and it performs fine.

Veeery nice machine. I think Pwn could be right about the raised plows, I think the opponents wouldn't get past the axe heads much.

Flatbed juggler? I don't know


The Eviscerator

798, 2 blacks. Not as powerful as Evisceration but it's much faster with the 4WD, which that old bot desperately needed.
