Re: pic: Midnight Invention's New battle bot?
Now, would it be possible to make all sides angled? That would further prevent spinners from knocking you accross the arena, but then again that ~13fps does sound kind of nice.

Or if angling the sides is not possible and if it complies to the rules, 4 mounted 3 inch cylindrical spikes 2 on each side. Your main concern is keeping their spinners away from your weak spot.

Pool noodles! I kinda like that spike idea to go on the sides though. It could act as some sort of defense and be little stablizers. |

Re: pic: Midnight Invention's New battle bot?
EDIT: nevermind, I just read the description
Like everyone said, your worst enemy will be those horizontal spinners & full body spinners. |

Re: pic: Midnight Invention's New battle bot?
Did I ever say they were invincible? I also didn't deny that good driving is the key to winning fights.
I said that it would be your worst enemy (take it with a grain of salt, I was just making a joking comment); for one thing I've noticed that robots with a 90* vertical side going against a FBS usually get thrown pretty hard when one of the spinner's teeth catches on a corner or side.
