Eh hem... the top picture clearly shows the wedge going all the way to the wheels while the side picture shows several inches of space between them. |

Sparkey, it is perfectly acceptable to admit defeat and ask someone who can CAD, nicely, to do your robots for you - I've done it an awful lot (almost exclusively, with the exception of that thing that won the Artistic Annihilator and a few very early pics that were done in Paint, all of my robots have either had CADs by other people or a detailed enough description not to warrant one) As for the future...um. I honestly don't know if I am continuing in ARC after this series as I have a featherweight to build and A levels to study for, although I might be able to scrape together some sort of entry for Fantasy Fury. If I do enter again it might have to be as a reduced team again but Drive *might* make another appearance, with one or two modifications, and the odd idea or two that floats around in my head could get put to paper and entered in the other weight classes. Or I might just enter a massively upscaled Jigsaw XD |

I'm sorry but are you Fucking blind? A popup is a lifter or flipper that uses spikes or any sharp object to lift other bots. Exactley that. |

As much as it goes against my principles to agree with an ARC person, I couldn't agree with you more on this issue. (as a side note, I play RA2 quite a bit myself and this is the first time I have heard someone actually refer to this term 'popup') |

Yeah, I never liked "pop-up". I was trying to make an inverted flipper like Firestorm when I stumbled onto the fact that it does massive damage in RA2. Sparkey, can you do us all a favor and when you are talking about real robotics or posting in any CFL related topic please forget that you have ever heard of RA2... It is for the best believe me. |
