I'm starting to build a bot-fed wall defense. I'm new to using things like flamethrowers and modularized factorio.
The wall is based on alternating between flamethrower turrets and another turret like Flamethower, gun, flamethrower, laser, repeat. The gun turrets and flamethrowers are stocked by bots from around my base. I keep a stack (200) red ammo, and 30 barrels of oil in my requester chests for backlog. Every 4th module I manually add a radar, and if I need a train path in/out I'll remove the gun turret at the top and make a path through the accumulators and add gates in the walls.
This is only my second play though and biters are a lot stronger in 0.17
than they were when I started in 0.16
.
What are my main weaknesses in this setup?
What should I be looking out for?

You're going all out on supply redundancy!
I am not in the habit of using flamethrower turrets, so I can't comment on how effective the defense will be overall. But I do often use gun turrets, and I have some suggestions:
