Peter Wallers Robot Ramblings

[Remote-Controlled Dave]

Thirded. Because googly eyes are awesome.

[peterwaller]

I think 8 eyes would be over the top and tend to trivialise an otherwise serious robot so I raided my grandaughters craft supplies and came up with this.

awesome! we need more crushers in ants and this design is unique! who will it be entering instead of pete?

[peterwaller]

Thats a good question.
I have to have at least one spinner so Anticyclone is safe.
Flippant did the best last time so I had better keep that.
Defiant is the cluster so that stays so it looks like I will have to drop Dominant.
I suppose I could remove some balast from Dominant and make that the cluster.
This is always assuming I haven't built anything new before the next AWS.

[playzooki]

this is awesome. keep up the good work

[Remote-Controlled Dave]

That is just ace. I hope it heralds a new dawn in more inventive ants!

[Hogi]

how much does the new one weigh? you could always put alsoran with it instead of defiant. that would make one monster of a team!

[peterwaller]

Thats already slightly over at 151.5.
I might have to remove the googly eyes as they stop the opposition robot from sliding up the incline so they are harder to lift but that will only save 0.2 gms.

i look forward to seeing the new one in action however many eyes it's got, how are the two servos controlled?
