Problems

  • The belt did not properly it into the pullet and continuously fell into the stator
  • The weapon motor burned out due to a combination of a (possibly) overpowered ESE, an opponent that was resistant to our primary method of attack, and (definitely) incompetent driving
  • Weight savings on top and bottom plate led to the deformation of the material and caused the electronics to sag


Good aspects

  • Absurdly powerful weapon
  • Arguably the peak of Motorama 2020
  • Almost successfully completed a self destruct sequence
  • Robust design and construction of chassis

Changes/Improvements

  • Redesign weapon with aluminum base w/ steel bolts to improve range and redistribute weight for better uses
  • Reinforce the top and bottom plates (redesigning, possibly aluminum??)
  • Remaking side plates because they got banged up
