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.

I left my phone on video record and captured this. Hmmm
You may have to weigh those bottles because I think a wine bottle it more than that. Maybe a 12 oz can or 20 oz bottle. The stock motors were geared WAY down though and could probably hold position without power to them. I couldnt test mine because the elbow was broke when i got it.
Yea both my arms are broken at the elbow , its a weak spot. I will weight a wine bottle later to see.
here is a link to the digital stand servo's that was on sale,i bought them for my johnny five and have 2 left for my omnibot high power servos hobbyking might have bigger or cheaper ones on my robot projects do have 2 up,time kinda hard right now ,with work projects at home,my house projects ,holiday with my girlfriend but by 4 foot roomba robot project all most done
Why arent you posting your progress for your bot? , yea that's a awesome servo ! , two of those would be great for elbows and shoulders
Those are $145 for 180 degree rotation and require 7.4 volts for 611oz of torque. Can you list the 680oz ones you got for $70? That would help Jstarne1 out a bunch.
yes they are the ones,was on sale.i thought is was 680 oz i was wrong this one is close to it on sale
high power servo
@josh here is a link to my roomba project,my compass came in this week need to make adapter board,mount it ,finished the rest of my custom cables ,then EZB code
my irobot roomba project my projects sometimes takes longer,because i do much testing and research ,so dont have to fill in any holes or make any mistakes that have to re-do
i did find this one at 430 oz at hobbyking for $60
high power servo it seems that JOSH is doing the same i am for my hands too,lift wine and pour drinks ,and get beer,i hade a spectrometer design looking to add to mine,to tell whats in the drinks,also have force sensors to tell how much to pour too
Turnigy is a great brand in general , that's awesome for the price , metal case and all titanium gears.
there are one of the top 10.hitec is another,they dont have high torque like hitec has
