  • How Could I Improve...

    Raptor claw - See Jurassic Park

    Id change the name, there was already a Darke Destroyer in Robot Wars... You dont want to get confused with it:wink:

      Ah, but how does that combine with tracks?

        question; is there a disadvantage when say 4 motors power 6 wheels? (meaning 2 of the motors power 4 wheels with the other 2 powering only 2 wheels)

          I dont think thered be one, to my knowledge, but its better to have all three wheels on a side being powered by two motors, in case you get lifted up. That way you still get full motor power from that side even if only one wheel touches the ground.

            Im thinking it combines with the tracks by digging in as the tread rolls over the arena... I hope not because what Ive envisioned would be horrifically inefficient, and tear lumps out of the arena floor all the time

              Turning would become impossible to.

                Well, it works for raptors, why wouldnt it work for vapours? Raptors are pretty quick too

                  If you let you tracks dig in like that during a turn they would derail from the wheels.

                    Yes, but evolution did not intend raptors to be flipped around and hit with large spinning objects

                    (besides, I think they raised the claws off the ground when running, according to Walking With Dinosaurs anyway)

                      They must have done, because at the European Championships last year my raptor got hit with large spinning objects that flipped it around all over the arena

                        Ive completely overhauled Werewolf, because it was unneccesary and boring.

                            It was an invertible box with a front that looked...melted. The only way I can really describe it, it was wedged but sort of not at the same time.

                              Can someone take a look at this, please? Im dont really know if its in weight.

                              Also, Im not knowledgeable about bore and ram and stuff, so itd be great if someone could help me out there.

                                Not at all bad, the only thing I notice is that longer and shorter doesnt make much sense :P

                                For rams, I know zip about the sizes but I generally use 70mm bore as a benchmark for a decent flipper, going up to 100-110mm (or more if youre crazy) for a Gravity-style mega-flipper and about 50mm being the minimum to get any use out of. I may be wrong in my reasoning, but really at the end of the day its still a flipping thing, however technically you describe it
