FBSDS ground clearence is way too low. This is especially bad for spinners as it can quite likely be beached by debris from its opponant.
Please disregard, I thought I put 8mm or 0.8cm. Either way, its fixed now.
While were on that subject you might want to change it for all your other machines as well as they all have the xact same mistake.
Oh by the way, Cosmic Thunder has hinged wedges all around making it at 0mm all around. Underneath those wedges the clearence is something like 8mm. So that should be that over.
I cant find that mistake for any of my other robots though...
I like keeping helpful quotes in case I ever need to refer for information. Heres one that I think Nick once said:
People keep going around bragging about 1 mm clearence as if it were a good thing. But its better to be tossed around by high wedges than to get stuck on the smallest pieces of shrapnel. 1 cm or higher is preferred, perhaps less in some areas far from the wheels. ESPECIALLY FOR FULL-BODY SPINNERS.
On a different note Im working on some new robots at the moment to put in here, sorry about the delay.
Too late to join?
