FRS-XX ready to debut...

After much work and dedication to getting the FRS-XX ready to be fully revealed, we're ready to start showing you some more close up details of this amazing machine. In doing so we also redesigned the driver suit and VR display helmet. Since the vehicle has no windows, all control is viewed through the helmet display. This keeps the weight and complexity of the vehicle down by not having large onboard screens and allows full unobstructed views to the driver. More to come!

Official story on the 'leaked' spy shot FRS-XX

A few days ago an image was posted on Nuthin' But Mech blog of the rumored FRS follow up racing mech. The image was indeed of our newest addition to the FRS racing mech program, the FRS-XX. Deep in testing at the black forest test circuit in Southern Germany our crew was there for 14 days testing the new leg systems and contact shoes. Admittedly this image was taken by our official photographer Lucas Thyssen, but the 'leak' was more of a... 'peek' as Derek D of FLD might say :) We will reveal more info as the testing progresses, with the official full reveal in December this year. As the pic reveals we are working with Nuthin' But Mech Racing this year as a new sponsor and we continue to work with ALXART as our design team. We have other projects in the pipe as well, but right now our main focus is the FRS-XX and the new drone mech we mentioned a week ago. Our partners asked us to withhold any more official info for now, so enjoy the spy pick and let us know what you think so far!
Tschüss!

On this day in history from 2012...

On this day, Oct 14th 2012, Felix Baumgartner and the REDBULL Stratos team completed the highest jump, longest freefall and broke mach 1 in a free dive from the edge of Earth's atmosphere. Congratulations to them all for making breathtaking history today!

FRS-32r with drop down cockpit

Back from the testing grounds in the black forest of southern Germany, JAEGERTECH has completed phase 2 tests of the FRS-32r racing mech. The testing included multiple terrain types and both human and mech drivers. Although mech pilots are not yet legal in Mech World Racing Championship©  racing, JAEGERTECH is proposing a new league with autonomous and mech pilots. This FRS model is equipped as a dual mode driver, pictured here with the GN series auto pilot. In the trials the GN pilot proved to be only 2.4 seconds faster overall than our best human pilot Kurt Allen. Although Kurt did manage to pull faster times through the winding forest track and the open tarmac sections. The competition has a big challenge ahead of them when #22 hits the circuit early next year.
Next test is in the harsh terrain of the South American DAKAR circuit.

JAG's GN-series mech pilot

Here's another peak at JAEGERTECH's flagship GN series, this time with a glimpse of the new 'auto' pilot. This human form mech pilot can be added to the package for smaller recon and discrete missions away from or in tandem with the GN-oo1X1 tank. Complete with the same Xi series A.I. as the tank the Pilot and the tank are completely in sync and act as a lethal team. Read more in the  Nuthin' But Mech book from Design Studio Press.
