Anyone made a HW Juggler in Stock? That would be awesome.

THE STUPID, IT BURNS

happy thanksgiving

2 blacks, 2 air tanks, dsa. i'll probably move the zteks further apart so they stop picking up debris and jamming.

plastic & nifty.

Fatal 2 looks a little... prototype-ish to me. Needs a more finished, solid look to it. Cool idea though.

I was thinking more along the lines of "fragile". :P

Moving the Z-teks further apart will definitely help.

Exhumer looks great though, nothing to complain about there except maybe lack of invertibility.

Yes, fragile is a better word.

Widened the spinners or FataL and made them spin upwards instead of downwards, now it works way better.

1 black, DSA and stuff. Wedges are very good and can get under Seism 16 but it has a small tendency of flipping over in hard collisons.

1 black, DSA, bunch of razors. Basically a MW Halftone, wedge is good and it works well, but HSes are a problem.

If the birds are static, then there's no way around that. Angling them upwards usually remedy that, but I'm not sure if the wedges will be just as good when you burst your motors.

AND WOOT MW HALFTONE

Brigand looks cool, and HS's might be less of a problem for Garroter if you angle the front razors up and down like they are on the side hammer, so they protect the chassis better. As it is now I bet HS's could sneak and hit that upper part of the chassis.

Won't these casters block wedges on Brigand ?

Pwnator · « **Reply #449 on:** December 06, 2010, 04:06:25 AM »

When the snapper arms flex, the casters won't be much of a hindrance.

Terramax 2, 795 kg, DSA, 2 blacks, 4WD

Better than the old one since it's way easier to drive, better wedges, and more weapons.

That looks very nice. I can't see any glaringly obvious problems with it.

Looks awesome, I like the look of the forward pointed juggers.

Sage · « **Reply #454 on:** January 02, 2011, 05:49:23 PM »

Besides the obvious T connector weakspot, looks pretty cool.

Naryar · « **Reply #455 on:** January 02, 2011, 05:57:25 PM »

I don't know about that sage, looks pretty protected to me...

Well, it will either break when outwedged against a gut-ripper, more particularly popup (at which point it is screwed anyway) but i doubt that T is going to get hit before both discs are gone (at which point it is ALSO screwed anyway)

NFX · « **Reply #456 on:** January 02, 2011, 06:42:52 PM »

I reckon the T connector is well-protected enough to be a viable component in this instance. A rammer's not exactly going to get to it past the discs.

Scrap Daddy · « **Reply #457 on:** January 02, 2011, 07:02:16 PM »

:O

I built something almost exactly the same yesterday, but with maces. Nice bot.

Somebody · « **Reply #458 on:** January 02, 2011, 07:33:02 PM »

Wow Scrap built the same bot as VB? Surprise surprise...

I bet Sarissa could... but yeah, it's safe from any ordinary rammer.

Wait... is that bot actually DSL realistic? (aside from the undoubtedly stacked batteries)

In any case it looks at least mostly realistic. Which is cool. Also cool how unlike NWB it is.
