− | Drive motors: Copals, Astroflights, Slimbodies, TWM3, TWM3R (DRIVE VERSION ONLY), all of the NPC's and the DRIVE E-tek are supposed to be for drive. All the other are weapon motors, and using a weapon motor for drive is wasting weight, as well as the opposite. (Technically, drive motors are stronger (superior torque) but have average speed, and weapon motors are weaker but MUCH faster, making these better for damage since the damage of a spinning weapon is directly proportional to the speed of the weapon) | + | **Drive motors: Copals, Astroflights, Slimbodies, TWM3, TWM3R (DRIVE VERSION ONLY), all of the NPC's and the DRIVE E-tek are supposed to be for drive.

| *Unless you know what SwitchDirEcoOmni.py is and are ready to use it, don't put weapons on your back. It is better to focus all your attack power on the front like most real life combat robots do. This obviously doesn't applies if you are building a horizontal spinner or a sit-and-spinner. | | *Unless you know what SwitchDirEcoOmni.py is and are ready to use it, don't put weapons on your back.
