My " friend"?
found two RC type robots at a garage sale for next to nothing, a roaring Trex and a V2 Robosapian in working condition! Yesterday snooping around a thrift store I drifted thru the childrens section (what was I thinking) and this "YANO Interactive Story Teller The Original San Francisco Toy Makers" popped out at me! I paid the $2:50 and carried him off! It requires 6 volts c type or my own home brew power supply to see what works on it! V4 and its smaller size will be very welcome for these guys!
( Be careful what you wish for)
any one hack a v2 ?whits one is the ir to use .and the gnd .thank you [img]/uploads/180120141502-635256193721932117.jpg[/img
@nomad, thank you so much for the great advice on the fire hazard issue! I will definitely now, remove the batteries and check out the wiring harness! Its interesting that only the V2 has this poor wiring?! With this robot working so well, its a difficult choice to hack it and install an EZ-B. If it were broken the choice would be a lot easier
Also it would be better to change out the D cells for a LIPO , install a charging rod on the Robo and have it self charge! Would you know if there is a circuit diagram somewhere on the net? That would make hacking it a whole lot easier!

you can find much info on robocommunity.com. i can help you restore the wiring. in the link you will find all info about the v2. am also on skype as robot elvis restore v2
the v2 needs his d-cells to keep standing up.els he will fall over by surten moves. you can try to find a diagram for rechargebles batterie to use.
Cool , little collection. I am a sucker for wow wee robots. I love how they make a inexpensive robot , they just need some ezb love.

@josh you got that right (ezb love)! The wow wee line seem to be quite advanced. @nomad holy moley! 32! " i got some 32 robots.but i need that one speciale ez robot." is what some people say about girl friends!
