Hey all,

I present to you my TC11 entry in progress

It is called Fire Fighter because it has fire stickers on it
It has tracks for easy drive and steering
The blades at the side are for defend and as weapon. (I won't tell my signature move as it isn't build yet.)

This vehicle is 45 studs long, 29 studs wide(without blades) and about 16 studs high.
As for the discussion about the size, I find my vehicle quite big.
So 45x45x45 is big enough to me

I like how low it is, seems very hard to flip over.

And yeah, it is quite big, and there is still lots of space left! 15 studs on the sides, and a lot of room to go up and mount signature move device!

Nicely done. The only concern I would have is that the tracks typically do not generate enough friction. As such, maybe some rubber inserts (as those that came in the EV3 Extension Set) might help here. 

Woohooo, this thing looks massive and mean!  

Lucky situation, that we use LEGO parts, those blades would show no mercy for tires in the metal reality.  

Or alternative:

I haven't had problems with tracks before so I try without these rubbers inserts(and I do not have them;)

That is one good looking robot.

i see our robots have a few things in common

- tracks, i first tried with wheels. 2 connected to a motor and  1 swivel wheel. But that didnt work so i have a chassis with tracks.

- i had cages around the wheels and i'm ppb going to do that as well around my tracks. and maybe front&rear sides. It makes it look sturdy and i''m sure it protects the robot a lot.

I hope we don't have the same signature move.

Hey all,

Here is finally some progress as I finally had some time last week to build.

The yellow part is part of my special move, but it isn't finished yet.
After that I need some finetuning to make it look a bit better.

A picture of my controller can be found here: http://bricksafe.com/pages/nick97/tc11

Hope you like it
