If you post one more bot that hasn't been properly cropped, this thread is closed. Which will be evidence that you haven't been listening to us.

Also, if you continue to spew out bots OR posts at an exponential rate, this topic is closed.

Other than that, if you can learn from these mistakes, have fun.

It's...better, again.

But why have the flipping arm above the wheels? That makes it non-invertible.

good point, but lets say the arm gets pushed down when he's flipped, so he can drive inverted, he can self rite, though.

That's a pretty weak flipping arm then

EDIT: Actually, no, my mistake. It could get bent down regardless of material or power, but still you'd only have like 2 or 4 wheels on the ground and not be able to manoeuvre correctly. I guess it doesn't matter though if you're trying to get away to self-right and you have decent speed.

Shouldn't there be support near the front of the bot so that it doesn't drag against the floor? You know to keep the bot level?

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

It was more of a suggestion actually, not pointing out a design flaw. If that's what you were shooting for, fine by me.
