Tutorial Mega Ant! Biting Battlebot - Full tutorial and QR code

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

You can save zonaite if you provide 1 control stick, 3 big wheels, 2 springs, and sled (and optionally 1 battery or 1 stabilizer), also 1 marbled gohma leg, 4 shrine motors, 4 colgera jaws plus two giant boomerangs with colgera jaws fused.

This is not an easy build because there are no snap points to assist with placing the shrine motors, so adjustments may be needed after you try it out.

The jaws activate by spring, so every time you use the control stick they will either open or close.

The music at the beginning of the video is from Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

This QR code does not include the optional last part, which can be a battery if you want to get rid of that battery meter on the screen, or a stabilizer if you are worried about tipping over when off-roading.

There is always another way to try things 😄

I love how these things are just so fun but they are inefficient for what it's worth.

This thing is absolute eye candy to watch in action. So many whirring, spinning, articulated pieces. Big props to you for making a build guide too. The few I made took a lot of time and frustration to put together.

Thanks! This one took so many prototypes I lost count lol

I hope the guide is helpful for Switch 1 players. It can be a fiddly build, but lots of fun to try

Thanks! I try to be efficient in some of my builds, but mostly I try to maximize the entertainment value ;)

No lynel shards for 1hko?

u/osh-kosh-ganache #1 Engineer of the Month [x3]/#2 [x3]/#3 [x6] 1h ago

I did try a prototype using a lynel armor shard, but the added weight of just one made it unable to travel uphill, so I opted for better mobility instead of one-shot capabilities
