Brian, can you show us how exactly on the lower wedge it's hinged... on 3, erm, sides? Because if you mean the edges, I'm... not really seeing how that's possible

Sorry if I sound like a fool but I'm legit confused

I mean that the whole bottom wedge is hinged where it meets the steeper sloped wedge. TinkerCAD has a lot of limitations on the detail of the models, and whenever you group two or more parts together you always get lines between them. The entire bottom part is one piece, ignore the lines, and where it meets the higher wedge is where it's hinged.

It's been a while since I've introduced an all new robot, and not simply a redesign or re-imagining of an existing design.

But now, introducing, in the Super Heavyweight division: Nitro 2&#33;

Nitro 2 is the successor to Nitro Express. It's a 2WD robot armed with a large horizontal flywheel, mounted low to serve as either an undercutter or an overcutter, depending on whether or not the robot is inverted.

Stats:
Speed: 6
Traction: 4
Torque: 1
Armor: 6
Weapon: 13

Another new robot?&#33; WHAA??

A newcomer to the ARC tournament, Veto is already one of the most feared robots in the Lightweight division. Well, the twisted geniuses responsible for it have created an even more ferocious incarnation of it&#33; Introducing, the new, improved, and even more deadly... Veto&#33;













Image

The newest version of Veto features a rarely used technology in robot combat, the "shuffle drive." Eight legs on each side move in a shuffling motion to propel the robot across the floor, and are even shorter in height than any wheel available that's feasible for a fighting robot. As a result, with the help of compact NiMH battery packs, Veto could be given a much lower profile, giving it the lowest mounted blade out of all the overhead spinners. It also has nearly twice the reach as the current incarnation fighting in Ruination: The Contagion at this time. The blade is made of titanium, with holes drilled into it to keep the weight down, and spins at nearly 220 mph at the tips.

Stats are as follows:
Speed: 4
Traction: 3
Torque: 1
Armor: 8
Weapon: 14

Holy cow, the new Veto looks insane.

Yeah. It just looks like it embodies evil. I didn't realize when I first conceived this redesign how scary it would look, it came out better than I ever hoped.

That's a pretty neat design there. I can't wait to see how it performs&#33;

I think the motor looks like a lego :P it's a solid design, and completely rediculous. should do well

Nitro 2 seriously reminds me of Tip-Top from Robot Wars, but Seriously though this LW is already solid&#33;

Reminds me somewhat of Influenza. Should be an interesting bot to watch.

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