Thread: Get Flippen

    Id say make the lifting arm scoop bit more scoopier/shallower. The front side panels could be extended forwards to be shallower too to help deflect spinners and protect the lifting arm? Looks like youve got a very decent weapon set up for a US ant!

    Cant wait to see some vids when this goes into full combat

    I got all 3 ants done today.

    -Get-R-Done is 15.7oz and ready to rock!

    -Get Stuffed, which for this event is really Get-R-Done #2 is also 15.7oz and ready to go. I tried a few different things on this version, a new wheel set up and no back wedge. I took a little inspiration from Fuzzy for the wheels here. I think they look cool and they seem to perform better than the regular wheels.

    -Get Flippen is also done weighing in at 14.5oz. I will make a few different attachments, but I think how it is now will be how it will fight the majority of the time.

    -All that is left to do is make some sort of fodder bot to take the place of pookie for this event. I might just use a small little Wal-Mart car for this.

    Why is it the four bar linkage arm operates from the front ? I build K*bots and I can get a lot more force from firing from the rear bars. Ill put up a link in a little while to show you

    go to http://www.kbotworld.comhttp://www.kbotworld.com and go down the page until you see a pic of a gold flipper throwing another up, or go to http://www.kbotworld.com/kbotworld%20top%2010%20Division%20M%20kbots%20Page %2014.htmhttp://www.kbotworld.com/kbotworld%2...ts%20Page%2014 .htm

    and look at the top bot, thats currently the best 2 pivot(4 bar) flipper in kbots

    Oh, cool, youre from Vegas ? Lovely city, been there before, I was at the last World Championship (Im the big guy in blue near the bottom holding the england flag). Ill see if I can get some better shots of the mechanism.

    I would also like to point out that that same mech holds a kbot flip record. I kbot of 500g flipping a bot of the same weight 13ft forward (we couldnt measure the height)
