Hi all Im very new here and not long had my ez b controller and so far love it. Ive linked a video to what im using my controller on which is a full replica of johnny 5 from short circuit.

Amazing work, Dave! that's a great looking Johnny 5. Welcome to the community!
now thats a robot. Amazing work, I dont want to know how much time you spent on that!
I think I'm into the millions of hours now hahaha
@Dave
Fantastic work, great to see a full size build.
Where are you located in the UK?
I'm down in Devon. Paignton.
Great Job can you mount the Camera in the eyes on on the head so you can use head tracking, I use this on my Inmoov and it works very well. also I don't mind the servo and gear noise it is a Robot after all, and robots should sound like robots.
Do you have a website with more info somewhere? Im curious about a lot of things, but particularly how you move the head. Those orange cylinders look like pneumatic or even hydraulic actuators, but when I looked up the original, yours look 105% identical to those on the movie version (as does everything else, seriously!), and those where made to look like hydraulic actuators,. Then again, the movie version also had to move, so maybe they were real lol. Anyway, is that what they actually are on yours?
Dave_Hall, Great ROBOT, I will be following updates. Steve S
