Hi there. It has been a while since I have put anything out on the forum. My last visit was to show the modifications...

DJ's Jd's Friday The 13Th
Beware of the robots on Friday the 13th! Thanks for the face mask Justin :D
Will try to be patient. I apologize in advance if the female comes out in me. :o)
BTW is there any other females on here? I don't think I have run across any.
You my have to invest in some metal gear servos for the most heavly loaded joints in the arms.
Exspensive but should last for years , So a good investment .

PS love the left arm (gripper + gun + flamethower) How about a cattle prod .
Specifically from robotics website , 260 oz in torque , 19.99 , great sweet spot , price vs performance.

Even if your servo stalls , having metal gears means they are less likely to be damaged and more likely to just stop moving.
Something I.am.doing.you may want to think about is using two servos in tandem to handle the servo stress vs one. , two cheap $20 servos like from pololu could grant you 520 oz in torque from $40 but still have a snappy movement rate , each servo would carry the exact same signal , splice the wire. , I plan the same mad scientists idea for the elbows as well so my bot won't have problems picking stuff up.
This is a strongest one at good speed:
Savox SA-1283SG SUPER TORQUE Steel Gear Standard Digital servo .13sec/416.6oz-in
This is excellent for general movements:
Savox SC-0251MG Larger Standard High Torque Metal Gear Digital servo .18sec/222.2oz-in

PS @Bookmaker Did you set fire to your work bench with that flamethrower yet . *eek*
Again many thanks.
RF may cause issues with the bluetooth connection, Will have to test very carefully , I agree its going to be the sound thats the real scary thing .
