  1. In this particular contest, only one bot is required. We have already cover that few posts back... Also, only one video is required.
  2. No, but, as suggested, you can use rubber bands, and if that is loose, try wrapping them few times until it is tight.
  3. PKW, lets try to read rules and replies. - It is already said both in replies, and noted in the Rules, that you can present only one bot. Furthermore, rules stated you can have max 3 pictures, and those pictures should be of your finished model, not building and progress. In discussion topic, you can show building and progress, but again, only from one bot. - Please take care of your posted image size, you have posted image twice the size of the allowed size.
  4. Yes, too many motors is the problem. If you don't have other options, try to add one more receiver to split the load. You could even leave the second receiver on the same channel as the first one, so you can operate both receivers from one stick on the remote controller.
  5. IR receivers should work pretty responsive up to their limit distance of few meters (officially up to 10m). But...if you are outside, on the sun, it decreases a lot. Other than that, if you have some obstacles between your controller and a receiver, your commands may get delayed or unresponsive. SBrick can work at much greater distance, sun does not bother it, and you can put the receiver deep inside the model, without the need for direct visibility between the controller and Sbrick. So, your IR should work good if you have all the requirements fulfilled.
  6. Please read the rules on the first page. Yes, you do need a video. No there is no maximum video time. The shorter, the better, as voters wont have a time to look all in details.
  7. And that's what we are looking for. A machine that will look like what is supposed to look - a fierce gladiator capable of push, pull, punch, drive over and destroy the opponent. No one said it has to look pretty. It has to look good for what it is. It needs to be subjective. Each of the builders and each of the voters will have its own opinion which machine has the most "likeliness to win the battle", and will build and vote accordingly.
  8. Rules say your model needs to have steering and driving, and at least one motorized signature move. Besides that you can have additional motorized functions. Someone might want to use all the channels available, or signature move could require different movements with different motors.
  9. Yes, you can! Happy building! Also, try to use capital letters at the start of the sentence.
  10. Correct. No, it has to be a single bot. No, but it can shoot rockets and other stuff, as long as the trigger is remotely operated. Arena is the space where you will take the video and pictures of your model. There are no rules or requirements about that. Your "arena" must be sufficient for your bot to demonstrate its ability to drive/steer smoothly and show off its signature move. So enough space and enough light.
  11. You can build any battle machine you want, as long as it fits the rules. There is no fixed rule about the look, BUT try to follow the spirit of the contest! So, unmanned tanks, walkers, bipeds...are okay. Just make sure it can drive/steer and to have a signature move.
  12. If you have already posted pictures of the model of battle bot, then you can't enter the competition with that model. But you are free to start a new one! I really don't understand what you mean here...
  13. 1. No modifying parts. 2. Will get back to this. 3. Yes, video is mandatory, it is stated in the rules :) Still just Studs.
  14. That's correct, or lets just quote our TC11 Expert Guest Judge: β€œThe greatest victory is that which requires no battle.”
  15. @Madoca 1977 Their pictures and promoting them in any way (even in negative context) is not welcomed, and we will remove those, so don't worry about the pics. Your work is very appreciated and hope we will see much more great models from you!
  16. None of the contest top three entries wasn't added. They will be soon. Thanks!
  17. Having quoted that, thanks for your and thanks to Imanol BB suggestions, I have already made a post for HOF. But, we will have those in mind for the next update, which will be regular again. Also, I am looking for a volunteer to help me out with some short (one line) creative writing, once every two weeks. If someone is interested, let me know via PM.

  20. Great looking and awesome performance. Nice driving, too :)
  21. Alone or with some company?
  22. Guys, I am picking some great MOCs from Technic forum to list them in HOF, and would like to ask you to make your suggestions! When posting suggestions, don't forget to add an image and link to EB topic!
