Mini 6 fabricated Robot This is my next EZ Robot, after helping my grandson Hunter build his first robot. I have always liked the Six by EZ Robot, so I wanted to build a mini. Thank You EZ Robot and D.J. Sures. My Six is powered with a EZB3 controller. It is made with very simple parts, micro servos, aluminum stock, concrete anchors, Numerous screws and bolts, Dollar tupperware type bowl, 2 in 1 Bluetooth speaker. "Lots of trial and error!" 12 custom fabricated aluminum brackets 42 center punches 42 holes & deburring I have to say it has been very rewarding, could not include everthing I wanted to build now, have many new ideas to add later. Hope you like my latest EZ Robot. Steve S

Thanks Steve....really appreciate your comments. That helps me gain a better picture of what I can expect and how I may have to run the class.

It will add to the motivation to speak up loud and clear and so who can get the robot to do the selected action!

After watching the "Humans Need Not Apply " video on youtube I feel it is important for all children to have a good understanding of robots!

I look forward to posting video of the class in action later this year!

Mini 6 now has a small cargo belly that can hold Lipo batteries. My fabricated mini 6 sure likes performing his new song & dance, along w/his new Lipo battery. His performance was enhanced! Along with the Turnigy 1.7 Lipo battery, he now has a low voltage alarm, both from HobbyKing. EZ Robot is so MUCH FUN!

Yes, eventually Patrick. I have one more EZB3 (might be saving it for another grandson), and 2 EZB4s that will be shipping soon. I was surprised of the performance of my new 2 cell Lipo batteries over my old Ni-Cd and Ni-MH packs. Also have a parallel cable to double up the Turnigy 1700 Lipos if I want more run time. The low voltage alarm plugs into the balance leads.
