A cartoon isn't a true representation of how two machines will or would react in those circumstances. Lets now see how those two machine react for real in a real environment.
I've run an Avant 428, which was the biggest machine at the college i attended in southern Sweden, and i prefer Avant over other brands and manufacturers. Then again, Avant is the only brand i've tried, and considering how it looks today, Avant, Bobcat and Multione might just be the only manufacturers i will ever try out. Personally, i don't mind other brands, but i myself stick to Avant, because it's again the only brand i have operated and have experience with.
Makes sense, since the Avant has no articulation in the joint. It works like a hinge where it moves on one axis only. Hence the higher tipping force ( the rear part of the machine acts as a full counter balance) Even when cornering.
Ok, first off, the center boom design isn’t conventional, and it isn’t as good. A machine that has the boom further forward, with the pivot point further up, with two arms, you could keep side entry, lose the telescoping arm, and have a more conventional machine. I’d also like to see these compared in real life.
