Jeremie · Answer

Wow @pranav, that's awesome! Great idea with using form board, should make your robot pretty light weight. What about the name Navbot 2500?

Wolfie · Answer

Id name it Foamy

CardboardHacker · Answer

STSB Strong tall stylish bot. Try acronyms that sound good.

Danger! · Answer

That looks awsome! It is hard to believe that it is put together from scratch. You refered to it as "she." A feminine play on the name "EZ-B" could be something like. "Ezzibell."

Sounds good to me. Sort of space/futuristic like. I'm telling you man, Nova's really getting to me. I want to make one! Let me rephrase that: I REALLY want to make one!

Alexi 3000 ..... , lol it's not what you think though, it was the name plate on the tram that led into the hive in resident evil the first movie. I was watching it this morning.

MovieMaker · Answer

Those are a lot of good names. I liked Foamy.

CardboardHacker · Answer

How'd you build it? Wooden frame? Or is it all foam board?

pranav · Answer

It is all foam board...

CardboardHacker · Answer

How much did all that foam board cost?!?

pranav · Answer

Here in India, it is 2300 rupees... That would end up at $30-$35 for the whole foam board... Used 5mm thick foam board for base and 3mm for the remaining shell... I have lot of board still left out... So we're now making a hexapod, I can say a replica for DJ's SIX... I loved that bot...

jstarne1 · Answer

@pranav , you should get the REAL SIX

CardboardHacker · Answer

Up here you get smaller pieces for twice the price sadly. Well, not all hope is lost. Maybe buy some board during the Christmas sales. Did it take fairly long to build? I'm very interested so I hope you don't mind I'm asking so many questions.

pranav · Answer

Nope not at all @technopro , This community has taught me so much, this is the only way i can prove worthy of it... It took around 3 days to build the whole robot.. Coz we had to go to college and come back and work on it in the nights.. So it took 3 days... If you sit on it full fledged, it can be done in a day or two... Wouldn't be possible without a friend of mine named Pruthvi... Josh, I come from a middle class family. I took home tution for 8 months to buy a EZ-Complete kit... I didn't have enough money to but an omnibot 2000 from ebay... So, built it from scrap... I love DJ's SIX and JD.. But I'll have to wait for atleast an year to make money for it.. So in the mean time, I would build one myself...

CardboardHacker · Answer

Very cool. You might just find a replica floating around soon!

pranav · Answer

Thanks @technopro ... These are some of the works of my friend Pruthvi who helped me complete the robot...

CardboardHacker · Answer

Wow! He's very skilled!

Dave Schulpius · Answer

If your still looking for a name, how about GQ?

CardboardHacker · Answer

Hey! One more question. What motors did you use?

pranav · Answer

I used 300rpm motors which have a torque of about 10 Kg-cm... I used an L298n motor driver to control them... Any more questions? Feel free to ask...

CardboardHacker · Answer

Do you have any links to the motors? I have an l298n on order so I'm good there.

pranav · Answer

I actually bought it from a local supplier... The whole bot ended up at some 6-8 Kgs... So, I selected the motors that have a torque of about 10Kg-cm...
