'''Box of BS''' was a Middleweight robot built by [[Radio F Software]]. It was entered in the fourth sanctioned [[AceUplink]] tournament but the robot was disqualified due to RFS having been banned from the forums before the start of the tournament. The robot was cube-shaped and featured an [[Iron Spike]] on each corner. Rather than ram its opponents Box of BS was a [[Sit & Spinner]] capable of driving while spinning, a feature known as "Tornado Drive" in real-life robotics.
The robot's paint job was all blank with bright green Impact lettering reading "BS" on every side of the robot including the top which was used as a reference point for Box of BS' forward heading.
==Tornado Drive==
Box of BS achieved its "Tornado Drive" by means of featuring four drive motors and a series of switch-based controls that only spun three motors at a time. The robot would perpetually spin in place but could also demonstrate translational movement with minimal input. The robot's weaponry spun clockwise meaning that Box of BS was only capable of making right turns with its weaponry activated. In order to perform sharper turns, and to spin at full speed, there was an additional switch input added that activated all four motors to spin in the robot in a normal sit n' spin manner.
==Performance==
Box of BS was not permitted to participate in the AceUplink tournament due to RFS' dismissal from the community and the robot was never entered into another event. Because of this its efficacy was never determined.
Due to the unique nature behind the robot's drive system Box of BS is incapable of being rebuilt and submitted to a modern-day tournament because it cannot be suitably AI'd.
