Hilarious! Although I think @Richard R's InMoov should referree, and serve me booze while I watch my Doom crush the children's robots...
@Richard R
I think EZ:2 is fiberglass, and fiberglass is not plastic, unless some of the panels are plastic. Sure, XLR-One is PLA for now, but wait till @Anthony and I partner up (if we do) and reproduce him in better materials!
@Toymaker
Love how the EZ:2 evolved so much, however I never got those motors you promised me? Everything cool?
I think intelligence-wise, Doombot is the dumbest
I think Doom Is still the best as he is METALLLLLL! \m/ \m/ \m/
Anyway this is great guys kinda like Celebrity Death Match!
If you still need these motors, I will send another shipment but will need to check if I have your right address.

I'm sure the XLR series of robots will become more intelligent as time goes on. If you think about it though, we are comparing a robot built from revising older robots (EZ:2) against a very new robot that hasn't really been given any time on the programming side of things other than scripted actions and moves.
I've always said I'm on hand to guide for any scripting and EZ-B projects and Anthony has come to me for one specific idea he has (which I can't divulge any information on) and once the kickstarter gets those robots out I'm sure we will see revised robots with more sensors and better programming.
P.S. Jarvis would win any fight, he is much like how God is depicted, you can't see him but you know he is there
That's what I'm asking on my Dirgebot post...I know what I'm good at, I know my limitations. That's why i need an in house programmer... I'd like a right out of the box commercial software package. But it has to be spectacular, because it would be a shame not to use the EZb's capabilities...it's just that amazing.
When I finish the Dirgebot prototype I may give away some samples out here...for software development. I'm not going the Kickstarter route. When the proto is done I will go into production immediately. Like I said I already have a warehouse I'm ready to use and I got all the tools and machines I need.
NO! I never got that dude. You know I wouldve said something on here if I did. Id still like to give it a try if youre still willing to send it. I was gonna send you some stuff too in the future.
I'll take you up on that. send me an email with your personal contact if you want.

@Toymaker
Oh yeah the address is correct.
Tony
I have several of these motors that Toymaker sent me last year. I wont be using them. I did mod one of them but it's still just like new I think. I can send them to you free of charge just like Tony did for me. Let me know and I can get them to you next week.
They're Bosch worm gear motors with an internal potentiometer. If both Dave and Tony are sending me some I'd throw some out your way... Not literally of course!
cheers

I use these motors extensively on the EZ:1 (and EZ:2) robots as they have plenty of torque and are virtually silent in operation and because they are worm driven they have no holding slippage and require no holding current.
On the MD5DOF arm above I use two for the shoulder their voltage is upped (from the main 12v battery) to 18v for the extra torque required. Another is used in the bicep and a further one is used in the wrist. They also work great for pan/tilt in the head. This arm can pick up a can of drink with no problems.
