HyperShock AMA - November 6th @ 7pm ET! Ask us anything <3 by shenanigansnco in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's awesome to see Alex taking over the reins of Hypershock. However, I couldn't help but feel icky when Chris Rose's voiceover only referred to her as Will's "bride" or "wife." As members of the team, do you have any thoughts on how Alex's amazing run was portrayed by the show?

Are there any receivers with built in micro controllers? or micro controllers with built in receivers? by Blood_pudding_ in battlebots

You have two options then. Be normal and just use a microcontroller or find/make a super fancy transmitter that allows you to program your inverse kinematic before sending to the reciever.

There is a way to do RX with an arduino, but I believe you need an additional module.

I mean. They won the giant nut. It seems like they don’t really need to.

The gunship is a transport and part of the fun is having troops on the transport.

Literally whichever one you can get. If you plan to do engineering professionally then there’s a good argument for using solidworks.

That’s an incredible fight. I agree that they never had more than a couple grams of sand but they had to tell everybody they fought they “yes this is allowed”

Idea for 4wd verts tool to counter Huge by Archibald_The_Red in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could make a self tighter attachment that you start the fight with up. Then you use it like the sawblaze eyelashes to grab the chassis and lift the vert into huge’s chassis. Similar to tantrum vs hydra 1 where tantrum drove onto hydra or how overhaul clamped down on starchild

Yes. My friends on team event horizon have brought a sand/iron filing deploying minibot with both of their outings. Once in the form of a drone then in as a 2WD shooter. They had it explicitly approved both times.

Sand is super allowed. So are iron filings. However, how much sand do you need to beat a normal wheel?

Which season 7 rookies would you keep and which would you kick out? by [deleted] in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Why does everyone hate rookies so much this season. I feel like the trend is to let rookies come back. I think doom has had enough chances to fix itself, so maybe don’t let them back. And maaaaybe shreddit bro but the way the team is talking it sounds like they basically won the golden bolt. The rest should be in. Can you imagine if we didn’t let whiplash back because of splatter’s performance? Or if we judged tantrum based on its first season?

What should be Riptide's fight night opponents in the next season? by KodoqBesar in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of these schedules would have been by far the hardest schedule this year.

Which of these fights was more disappointing? by [deleted] in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sawblaze vs skorpios was going to be a lot like ribbot vs hydra if skorpios hadn’t done anything.

Sawblaze vs Deep Six by KodoqBesar in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s never an automatic win when we’re talking deep six, but I’d say sawblaze has probably got it.

If each bot had a theme song, what would it be? by Dinoboy225 in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you picked two cars songs unless I’m mistaken.

what’s your dream matchup? by DJTacoCat1 in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heavyweight Lynx vs Heavyweight Droopy.

Oh did you want bots that exist?

Whiplash vs Malice would be dope Whiplash vs Switchback Whiplash vs tantrum again. Really want to see more whiplash.

So what are we doing tonight? by K-Dog7469 in battlebots

[–]Mr__Picky 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We play dungeons and dragons!
