However it looks like both brands offer much of the exact same products with the same specs. Must be a profit and loss thing. Follow the money to find the answers.
Servo City has changed many products and others are discontinued.
Like the servo Gearboxes, "now" they only come with "their servos". (they all over 100.00)
In the past, I purchased the GearBoxes without their servos (less expensive) I used servos I had hanging around. I feel that was a bad decision. (as of 2022)
GoBuilda has nice products also.
Today, I hope to get a video on Mr. Metal in action
You know, what most these robots can do is just move forward and back, mouth moves while talking, eyes light up, head moves left and right, grippers grab things, arms move in two directions, camera on head sees - all with ARC software
after the, it just sit somewhere in my home :-(
I guess on what I am saying is the planning, building and programming is what I enjoy :-)
Here is a short video for now, more videos later with auto position
I plan to have a conversation with Mr. Metal - AIML - Bot
re-worked the AIML code
Very nice ! good to see Mr Metal on the go again
