This project has evolved some , the basic rundown is I'm modding two Omnibots , one a regular the other a larger 2000 model. I will have two ezb kits , rad base idea was thrown out because of so much noise but could go back on the table if the omnibot drivetrain is too weak to pull it.

Hi from Mr. Metal, hope all are doing well Body move soon EzAng
Ooooo I didnt know that.
Getting our kids in on the robots , my little brother alequa is 15 and stocked I'm building a robot and wants to help , he is late in the game as I'm 80 percent done with this build , the vacuum bot I'm gonna let him really get his hands dirty
Servos I believe I will use for elbow and shoulder movement , I am thinking of doubling up two in random for elbow , and shoulder up down movement giving the robot 520 oz in torque , http://www.pololu.com/catalog/product/1057 Pololu HD metal gear servos 19.99 , that would mean 200 would cover all servos for both arms if I upgraded. , right now for building purposes I can use the 645mg I have 130oz which will move fine but not great for lifting.
What about these? Although I think it may not be correct specs. Tell me what you think.

##EDIT## Yeah those numbers dont add up right. Here are the MG996R. They arent as strong but much cheaper.

Or this more expensive stronger one.

really good for very strong servos all types and more,look at hobbyking.com ,i buy alot from them and very cheap all brands
@glickclick , ill check those out in the morning
@robotmaker yes I love hobbyking those guys are so cheap , I wonder how they do it.
I spent the better part of today prepping parts , sanding out imperfections and gouge marks. I used 400 grit and wet sanded with soapy water. So far I have one arm and handles to finish hitting with 400. And the front chest piece must be sanded / prepped. As far as mods I still must do , I need to mold in the rear drawer and cut holes for video card connections. The arms I'm thinking of cutting a slot for the servo before it goes off to paint.
WHEN i get mine ready to paint i dont know if i get my friend who owns a car paint shop to do it,or do it my self i am looking at silver or gold or chrome
current to do list
Maybe to do list
Raising torso gives more room for electronics. Raising base should solve space constraints I've.been having for battery space , speakers and the ups backup control board. The challenge here is keeping the body /shell light as to not weight him down. O would like to have a third battery in.the base to lower center.of gravity.
