This is probably the weirdest bot I have ever build. This concept is similar to tilted cruiser. By building a bot diagonally, you can kind of mount guns on angled surfaces relative to the bot.



This would be practically if there's some kind of diagonal movement implemented, but with what we have now, this bot can only move in a weird way which has both advantages and disadvantages.



The disadvantages are obvious because it's weird, not only in driving, but also in building. The fact that there's no diagonal mirror line also doesn't help.



Now, let's talk about the advantages. As you can see in the video, this bot can do (partial) strafing without the use of currently annoying camera control steering.



This applies to rotorblades and mech legs too. I think that this concept has potential and worth sharing. In the meantime, I'm probably going to build some kind of asymmetric hover bots using this concept. The new diagonal aerorods also could have some use.



Edit : Progress added. This could easily be a nice B-2 spirit artbot. I'm unfamiliar with triforcing in this type of bots though.
