N-12's aren't grippy? It seems like it. Maybe it's the motors? I'll start the makeover right now.

We only look at the numbers and we ignore physics here. Besides, even if they could be grippy the sheer size would negate any advantage.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

RA2 ignores the physics of wheel size

its only the grip mesh that matters.. that is why you have have wheels move your robot without touching the ground.

Completed! Dentist XL is done!

Here's the outside:



...and this is the inside:



I put the inside's picture at that angle because I wanted to show you how the motors are in midair. I did that so if the disc, motor and extender were knocked off, he could drive upside-down.

Meh, it looks OK.  I would take out the pinks though because two blacks is plenty of power.

Yeah, I guess if I did that, I could put weapons on the side.

Nah, it's quite bad actually. But is OK for your level.

-Never use 4WD RAD drive, because Zteks or HPZ's are better for less weight. Or do not mix different motors for that matter. Try 2WD HPZ.
-1 black battery is enough
-Ice picks are bad for disc HS. Double ice picks are even worse. That weapon is barely going to deal any damage.

Yeah, the first time I played with Dentist XL, I Immediately liked Dentist better. I exported XL, but I'm going to delete him.

@WB-

The weapon looks too high, try to lower it and use maces OR keep it, put on irons or razors, and stick a wedge on.

Alright, since I haven't posted a Heavyweight yet, that is exactly what I'm going to do. One of my best bots: Dust Bunny!

This is, obviously, a snapshot of the outside:



And as you should know by now, a picture of the inside:



Yeah, I know what you're thinking. N-12's again? Just to let you know, I made him months ago. Looking back, since he only weighs 584.9 kgs, I should've used HP Z-Teks as the drive motors, and maybe upgraded the weapons. Back then, I liked razors a lot because Overheat was GREAT at destroying bots. (I made Dust Bunny before Dentist). I still do.

Fun Fact: Dust Bunny was my first bot to have a custom paint job. Basically, he was my first bot to have a decal I made.

And please don't swear on my showcase. Thank you.

Sometimes when I have a lot of components, it won't let me put on any more.

Just look through it and please start listening to advice. That one HS you built had potential. Try copying this (not so good) popup to start

Your awnser as to why, is in this link https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=Rule_of_Seven

Anyway, I'm not really going ot comment on this one, when you post a bot you've actually made recently, then we'll see how much you've improved.
