What is the deal with the snappers? I can't quite make it out

the drive is on them

It can't move.

The most efficient thing you can do is put the drive, weapons, and plow all on a single SnapperII with invertibility. Do you simply refuse to use SnapperIIs, or did you just not feel like using them at the time?

uh so much weight wasted, just attach your drive zteks on anchors.

Smolder (Yes, another HS)

So yeah. DSA, 396.7, 12 Razors.

i have a feeling that those extenders are going to come off very easily

GroudonRobotWars · « **Reply #446 on:** May 08, 2012, 11:51:09 PM »

Looks like a very cool design, but as Mr.AS had said those extenders look too fragile.

NFX · « **Reply #447 on:** May 09, 2012, 08:07:12 AM »

Looks quite interesting, but there's a lot more extender work going on than there should be. If you try Axle Loading the Servos, you could easily save around 20kg, and if you lost the forklift pieces from the back, that would save you more than enough weight to get maces and/or irons on the spinners instead of razors, which are probably going to get taken off pretty sharpish.

Interesting concept,
Cool.

Naryar · « **Reply #449 on:** May 09, 2012, 11:10:34 AM »

As everyone said, there's far too much extenders on there. As a general rule of thumb for extender work : Keep it the simplest, lightest, strongest, less exposed possible.

edit : oh wait it's stock, so extender strength does not really matter.

Was going for a HW Chained VS but it ended up as a MW thing.

DSA, 398.3. Gets kills quickly and the wedge is decent.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #451 on:** June 09, 2012, 08:13:54 PM »

Cool. reminds me of one of my bots.

NFX · « **Reply #452 on:** June 09, 2012, 08:38:05 PM »

Looks pretty cool. I'm concerned with its lack of defense, though, how well does it fare against HS with those exposed motors?

Fracture · « **Reply #453 on:** June 09, 2012, 08:44:48 PM »

Not sure if angled VS or just weird juggler? If it's the former I would rotate the weapon motors 180 degrees and bring them closer together and/or angle them more toward the front, and if it's the latter I would just angle them down more, possibly also toward the front as well. You need to get those HP Z-Teks protected.

Wacky Bob · « **Reply #454 on:** June 09, 2012, 08:51:39 PM »

Yeah, I noticed the motor exposure. Horizontal Spinners rip them off, unsurprisingly. So I think I'll just make it a Face Spinner.

Wacky Bob · « **Reply #455 on:** June 10, 2012, 08:44:20 AM »

I said I'd make it a Face Spinner, so I did:

Same insides and stuff, but now it's more damaging and the motors are protected.

Fracture · « **Reply #456 on:** June 10, 2012, 08:48:33 AM »

Looks great. Think you can centre the wedge though.

Wacky Bob · « **Reply #457 on:** June 12, 2012, 07:14:04 PM »

Yes, I still build

8 Irons and 2 Razors. Simple setup:

Mr. AS · « **Reply #458 on:** June 12, 2012, 07:15:50 PM »

are you sure you cant put those ba's against the chassis wall so you dont have to use the extenders ?

Team 9 · « **Reply #459 on:** June 12, 2012, 07:16:39 PM »

looks quite good, but the weapon motors are exposed on the sides, consider ramplates
