the black snapper motor being quite fun lol
I'm assuming you mean the Mag? If you're making a popup, use BSG's, they save weight.
 
I'm definitely entering this with my 360 replica, though. Unless I can get something else done.

Here's the bracket I'm going to use for this if it gets voted in. (And I have a feeling it will)

Sorry for big pic

DP

If you are planning to build a bot in the near future, and you have everything straightened out except the bot isn'r built, you could send me a concept pic of the RL bot and make a RA2 rep of it! (Because GK just asked.)

Alright then, I've narrowed down my list, and I'll build a rep for it soon. Hopefully I'll have made a good choice- I've got a Third Seeding to defend.

Still need to finalize/finalise/how ever the heck you spell that word my design.
I tried to get away with s.m.i.d.s.y but obviously that was never gonna be a lightweight.

Hmmm, i just got an idea...

When you say...

-BFE and cheatbot parts allowed only if it makes the rep more like the real thing (no overpowered reps!)

Does that mean i can bfe a multibot chassis?

Cos i non sexually love gemini

I suspect it will be a no though
<<< Stalk me on the Twitter! (... Please... I'm lonely)

4th place in COTT! My word...

You do know this is an LW tournament? So you'd have two AW bots fighting one LW bot? ;)

If you can. Which I seriously doubt. The second chassis has to be a crawler anyway which makes the bot a fail.

Well mine's all ready, just need to skin it  ::2mad
I'm also not too sure about competitiveness, do stronger burst motors effect beater bars.

To be fair i'm gonna use a mousetrap replica, so it's not like the skin is the main problem.

I just HATE skinning.
