Designs
FlipSter
FlipSter has 3 WDMA bursts placed under the flippers. The bot appeared in Light vs. Dark but lost due to components being too heavy to do an OOTA.
FlipSter 2&3
FlipSter 2 added 2 spike strips on the center flipper in hope of inflicting more damage. The addition of the strips added the weight, and furthermore removed the possibility of OOTA.
FlipSter 3 had only internals changed. It included cambered wheels, a plate on the bottom of the chassis, and different batteries.
FlipSter IV
The latest of the bunch FlipSter IV ditched the arabic numbers, in favour of roman numbers. It was a huge update from FlipSter 3 as it has shorter, but more powerful flipper. The bursts were placed at the back of the bot, and are protected with aluminum armor plates (now lexan). It can even OOTA super heavyweight bots.
