I would have said keep the beta as it was as this increases leverage and flips better (I have tested this)
I have tested and found otherwise :P
Just no... Ask Nary or someone else.
No, they need the length, I've made enough of them :P

I don't. I'd rather question someone who's actually built a flipper in real life over a cheese eating surrender monkey.

You need the legnth, the bots with flippers mounted further forwards don't tend to flip "up" enough

Why don't you just accept the advice and never make the modifications, y'know. sweep it under the carpet... No one will know!

...Owait...

RA2 =/= IRL


Steeper starting angle gives more of the arc pushing up and forward whilst a flatter stating angle pushes the opponent both forwards then backwards at the end of the arc, (who wants to flip back into the arena?)
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

From what i know (not that much) it goes:
Steeper flipper = robot goes forwards.
Flatter flipper = Robot goes up.
If the flipper has a big enough arc then yes, the robot might go backwards.
:mrgreen:
Could do with another ant but i like it.

I didn't see any difference between Child Prodigy with 2 ants and 3 ants, and this uses the same motors, so I guess it's fine as it is. Also, thanks for the inspiration.
I'm just glad people are inspired by my building  :mrgreen:

Returning from the depths of your nightmares in LW form, Challenger X arrives.



SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE MULTI-COLOURED FLIPPER EXTENDERS >_<

Or at bare minimum give me a basic guide in making me some custom components w/o altering the original.

MSN don't seem to be working for me. I'm listening to a song which reminds me of you.

I'm in near-tears, but we both have to accept I've moved on.

I still love you though.

If you're not on your phone, I'll post it here.
