I need help
« on: March 27, 2010, 06:53:30 PM »
Im still not sure if this would be the proper area but can someone help me with wedges on bots.


every single wedge i make is useless and can never outwedge anything.


would someone be able to help me or give me tips.


i tried to build a HazCon type wedge on my BBEANS6 robot and it fails majorly.
it cant get under anything so how am i going to win battles against others if they have the advantage of a proper wedge.

HazCon's wedge took Naryar a while to perfect.

Use metal hinges.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

and/or 90 degree axle mounts (I may be wrong, but axle wedges get under HazCon.)

Metal hinges generally make good wedges too.
