Exotic industries made a few changes that either made extended spidertron tech too close together, or broke it completely.
Exotic industries removed the vanilla beacons in favor of two others: cooled beacons (ei_copper-beacon), available around the same time as vanilla beacon, and compact beacons (ei_iron-beacon), available later. It also pushed the portable fusion reactor much further down the tree but added the personal nuclear reactor, a weaker version available earlier (ei_personal-reactor).
Changes:
Spidertron MK2
Pushed down one stage further on the tech tree than the vanilla spidertron
Changes ingredients: portable fusion reactor to personal nuclear reactor, and vanilla beacon to cooled beacon
Ghost Weaver
Pushed down one stage further on the tech tree, to the same place as MK2
Immolator
Pushed down one stage further on the tech tree, to the same place as MK2
Changes ingredients: portable fusion reactor to personal nuclear reactor
Spidertron MK3
Moved even further down the tech tree, after portable fusion reactor and tier 5 modules (which are both one stage after the MK 2 was available)
Changes ingredients: Vanilla beacon to compact beacon (the later beacon), and the tier 3 speed and efficiency modules to tier 5
I modified the individual ingredients in recipes to swap out for the new ones rather than completely redefining the recipes which will hopefully improve compatibility with other mods that make recipe changes.
