)

ARGH NOT ONLY IT IS A CLONE BUT IT'S NOT BETTER THAN HAZCON

Anyway, I would probably recommend freeing up some weight to get a metal hinge wedge. I think all else is covered.

actually in the first version it used a metal hinge wedge, although in this design the wedge wasn´t that good, then i tried with a ´skirt hinge it worked WAY better, anyway here is the new version (the one in the pic beating hazcon)

Dude, removing the BSG and replacing it with a long ME is as easy as not doing your homework. :P

I said that for a reason. :P

And it's because it has infinite HP when on the 'baseplate'. And ditch the vertical poly behind the plow, it's not gonna make your bot move when inverted.

Silly newbie. I didn't said it couldn't beat hazcon. I meant it was much less clean and more messy than hazcon.

Beating my 4 year old bot doesn't prove anything.

Also it's still ridiculously messy in extender work.

i just wanted to prove how powerful it was, and the messy extender work is for this

dunno why, but it works.

He deserves an art award for that.

Not a bad idea, I think. I'll let more experienced users decide.

@Kurt Wylde: i just wanted to make it simple, and the extender also works as a "anti situations being imbobilised because my back is flat" method, or you can call it "asbibmbif"

yahutzee · « **Reply #110 on:** February 28, 2012, 10:42:47 PM »

here is my new juggle, it is a try at doing my own design but i just can´t make a way to be invertible or self righting method, help please?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #111 on:** February 29, 2012, 12:16:08 PM »

It's... unique...

I would get rid of the smaller beater bars and add both a metal hinge wedge and some kind of plow at the back.

Also if something can get under you you're dead meat anyway so there's no need for a srimech.

yahutzee · « **Reply #112 on:** February 29, 2012, 03:56:46 PM »

i want a srimech because sometimes you can get flipped, havok or anything else, and you have enough time to self-right, it have happened to me so much times, but with this one there is no posible way to self right (i was in a battle against blood runner, he had left 1 wheel and i was flipped, it was going to get counted out but it managed to move and then i was counted out)

MassimoV · « **Reply #113 on:** February 29, 2012, 04:17:15 PM »

Reminds me of Evil. Yeah you need a metal hinge and the back 2 drums aren't gonna do much.

Scorpion · « **Reply #114 on:** February 29, 2012, 06:10:00 PM »

Srimechs on this type of bot are not necessarily a good thing, they take up quite a bit of weight when you factor in burst and ants, note how most (if not all) good RA2 bots are either invertible, or rely on their weaponry to flip them back over, not a dedicated srimech.

Anywho, for the new Juggler, you should try using hexplates or plain old DSL disks rather than the drums, the hexplates will give you tighter weapons more easily for low weight, but disks are also a great option as they allow for more spaced out weaponry and better "juggling" ability.
Metal hinges are a much for modern day wedges as they are much more effective than skirt hinge wedges (though still keep the secondary ramp wedges on top on a skirt hinge for stability). Metal hinges can be a bit glitchy BTW, i'd recommend putting them on your boy first before putting on any other components.

yahutzee · « **Reply #115 on:** February 29, 2012, 10:39:00 PM »

just added 2 cf ectenders to the bot and... TADA! self righting mechanism, and the extenders also work as a snowplow, well, alittle bit, anyway expect a complete re-do of the bot.

yahutzee · « **Reply #116 on:** March 02, 2012, 09:37:44 PM »

new version!

this one works well, but still i cant beat spinners

comments?

also, i was watching my blades of fury match against frequency (great job NFX btw) but, how do you make those motor on to spinners? wouldn´t they block the spinner path?

FOTEPX · « **Reply #117 on:** March 03, 2012, 10:20:34 AM »

For some reason, I really like how that looks.

It's dying for a plow, though.

NFX · « **Reply #118 on:** March 03, 2012, 10:27:39 AM »

Newest juggler, what I would do is drop down to three Piglets, and have a much simpler and lighter rear stabiliser. I'd use the weight saved from that to add a Medium plow on the top, as FOTEPX suggested, and also add some stronger and angled feeder skirts, preferably Titanium, to give you more of an edge when fighting spinners.

I'm glad you like Frequency, though. =) The trouble with motor-on-top spinners in RA2 is that they are inherently unrealistic by virtue of the game mechanics, in the same way Ring Spinners are unrealistic. You can either use a poly extender to raise the motor up above the chassis, or if you're knowledgeable enough in BFE, attach the motor via an ME inside of a much taller chassis, then BFE the chassis height to the level you want. If you do have a motor or axle outwith the chassis, however, remember to add the necessary extender "supports". They might not do anything, but a real motor-on top design would need something to securely mount the motor onto.

comments?

@nfx: would you do me a favor? would you show me how is the motor attached to the chassis of frequency? please?

PS: dont expect ¡me posting too much the following days because tomorrow is my first day of school
