B.O.B. Bret's Omnibot

So I am finally to a point to report some progress on my omnibot hack. I call him BOB. I decided to change his color as there are so many white ones out there. I used a flat black with silver accents.

Am I right , is the torso for regs omnibot the same as omnibot 2000?

#26  

Not exactly, but very close. The bottom of the 2000s torso is taller and includes the slot for the drink tray. I also think there is a slight difference where the arms attach. But other than that, they are pretty much identical.

I ran accross another omnibot 2000 150 shipped.:) just bought on eBay , lol so I would have two motorized arms:)

the difference is the black one writ will twist otherwise the black and yellow one goes for 40 bucks from OWI at hobby lobby, online and ebay. it uses 5 different dc motors with worm gears so it holds position well. anyways just throwing out some ideas so you can get your omnibot reaching andd picking up things !:)
