Stop using t connectors.

For the most part yes, but unless you can find a suitable extender setup with a 20cm instead of the t connector, as well as finding a use for 6kgs in this design, don't give him "advice" he can't use.

I have some ideas, but I agree with Sage. It's only 6kgs.

Stop using t connectors.

Many rammers and other bots use t connectors. I'll try to stop using them but on this bot it doesn't really matter as I'm still under the weight limit.
I have some more stuff to post, just need to do a few things.

^Sage was right. The rule of 7 got in the way.

Anyways, nothing special here. Just a psycolone (sp?) popup:

NFX · « **Reply #64 on:** August 17, 2011, 05:10:07 AM »

Not quite a Pyscolone popup yet. You need rubber wheels on there. Chassis could be shrunk a little bit to obtain the weight.

The Zephyr · « **Reply #65 on:** August 17, 2011, 05:11:04 AM »

Whoops, forgot about rubbers. I'll do that now.

Is the wedge attached to the side DDT's? Or are they just intersecting?

Just intersecting. It's on the middle one.

This is more of a proof of concept:

Waaaaay too fast. I'll probably switch for redbirds. The weapon is awesome, though. It sends Fury from SCV4 flying.

Weapons with normals = not good idea on a spinner

The Zephyr · « **Reply #72 on:** August 17, 2011, 12:42:01 PM »

I remember someone saying that ice-picks are a good idea because:

1) They protect the extenders/discs.
2) They work on a spinner.

I can't remember where I read it...

090901 · « **Reply #73 on:** August 17, 2011, 12:48:57 PM »

they suck, just use irons.

The Zephyr · « **Reply #74 on:** August 17, 2011, 12:49:26 PM »

Ok. Like I said, proof of concept.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #75 on:** August 17, 2011, 05:15:23 PM »

You don't need 4WD. Use 2wd and frontal stabilizers, then moar weaponry.

You're thinking of maces. You want to use Iron Spikes on this design, lose the rear wheels, add some front stabilisers, and add some more weaponry on the disc.

The Zephyr · « **Reply #77 on:** August 18, 2011, 10:48:56 AM »

^Oh, ok. Fail on my part. :P

Anyways, a very generic MW HS:

2 plows, 11 irons/maces (missing 1) and 1 black.

NFX · « **Reply #78 on:** August 18, 2011, 11:01:30 AM »

That is Fury. If you stacked the CB into the black, you might be able to get the last iron on there. You should ideally use the same weapons on both Spinners as well.
