  • pretty much the most stable movement here.

    if they are ever going to make a household robot that would individually move, they should make those kind of insect legs i think ^^

  • And so we see why nature prefers even numbers of legs

  • why not use your fourth servo, from the eye, for a fourth legg and make it walk bether

  • that wall-e needs a good foot on his ass

  • Ahahahahahaha

  • u need the legs from this with the other head

  • maybe some rubber feet covers with more grip.

    ...this is totally awesome!

  • looks like a dragoon on sc

  • first swashbot were making much nicer sounds...

  • just a thought, what if you added revolving wheels to the feet. It would be harder to control but it's just a thought.

  • very interesting

  • Silence mortals! This is awesome :D SwashBot2 is the best robot evar!

  • :O cool

  • that helicopter looks like a Blade 400

  • It is not made from a helicopter. Leg servos are standard size servos, not the micro ones used in a blade 400 :) There are a few sub micro servos in the head, but they were spare servos I had laying around... I don't have a blade 400, so no parts came from it.

  • No helis were harmed in the making of this retarded thing. It uses the ccpm principle of a heli transmitter that mixes the way the 3 servos function together, NOT made from a heli. The only parts that are specifically for helis are the ball links, which were worn out links from one of my helicopters, They were no longer safe to fly with, and instead of tossing them, I made a flashlight with legs.

  • Dude your wasting you time replying to this dork. This is truly a cool robot.

  • Thanks. Anyone has the right to post what they feel :) I actually get a kick out of people who doesn't appreciate something a little different. The rebellious part of me loves the fact that they can't accept creativity. After all he is right, it is a flashlight with legs. But have you ever seen a 3 legged flashlight with direct r/c control? The reason that I responded is that he thought I had taken a heli and destroyed it to make this. I would never destroy one of my helis on purpose lol :)

  • Very interesting. I have a similar robot design in mind, but mine will be neural network controlled. Where can I get the servos?

  • maby u could make weels that only go forward so when they go back there draging the back wheel n the back wheel will push the front weels forward u get what im saying

  • His locomotion is a bit odd but he seems to have a lot of personality

  • Personality? You're a moron, the thing is remote controlled.

  • I'm talking about the design, numbnuts.

  • star wars

  • thats a bad ass invention man good moey to be made there..

  • zincdustdust y dont u go make one

  • i think thats the best out of the three ive seen. i think that the sci-fi like theme is what people are looking of in robots today. :D

  • u should put some type of rubber grips on the bottom of the feet so it moves along faster and less like its not really moving

  • A supersized swashbot. Aaaaaah! You'll have to give all 3 of them some pincher arms like your Crab Fu video some day. Great work!

  • You should apply to IT, show them these videos. ;)

  • Sorry, I meant MIT. ;)

  • Can he jump?

  • im feeling dance fever!

  • Fun

  • BEAST!!! RAW BOMBTITS!!!! suppre coooolnessss!!!

  • does any one no wat heli that is?

    tell me on my channel

  • You should put googley eyes on the next one. That'd really put it over the top for me.

  • Great job on the woodwork.

  • wow man that is amazing. how did you learn to make all these little robots?

  • dude you're a beast at making robots

  • interesting i love the new and advanced version nice!

  • I don't know a lot about robots, but I was just wondering if you had considered putting 5 servos on it for an extra leg? Would that make it travel faster?

  • lookin forward to swash bot 3 =D

  • with thst speed it cud beat a lambo in a drag race hands down lol...gr8 project, someday might be more than a project u neva no...keep at it =D

  • dude, you could rule the world!

  • that is really cool!!!!!!!!

  • tell me how to build one

  • so life like,

  • hes got alot of time on his hands

  • crazy walker:D

  • nice :P

  • looks almost alive :) i really like it.. but it looks like it takes alot of practice to get it moving

  • this robot is useless

  • Well what do u know?U want it to get you lemonade?Dork...

  • This has better legs, but stil non efficient enough

  • when he hold it upside down does anyone else think that he could make like a really awesome power claw or someit?

  • do you have to have that controller

    ???

  • it's a good for nothin cutsy robot

  • I preffered the old cute one.

  • kind of reminds me of those large ants in half life 2

  • lol is humpin teh ground when it walk lol

  • this one is cooler, but the first one was cuter.

  • lol

  • It's like the first one only cooler looking and better.

  • WOW i would love 2 know how 2 make 1 of these :D

  • u could stalk some people if you put cameras with it

  • That would be funny

    having it come up to you and do a dance

  • U should make a big one and instead of the head make the head an airsoft gun

  • pretty cool

  • its like a breakdancing crab........awesome

  • hints the user name crabfu

  • Ur MOM!

  • iJustsu, wanna try to make one that's better and post it? :]

  • their just gettin better its awsome and scary if there was a amry of them they could destroy the world jus give them guns

  • cute looking thing XD

    I want one :D

  • it'd be awesome if u could attach a camera to the head of that thing.. lol

  • it looked like it was doing it lol

  • it looks like its dancing

  • dude swashbot3 was the best!

  • Very innovative, I must say, but a robot runs on artificial intelligence that must be programmed. That will turn your 'machine' into a functioning robot. Maybe a thought for swashbot 3. :) Nice job. I like it. Think of using the computer from Lego Mindstorm for the 'brain'. You can convert those computers to be programmed with C.

  • pretty badass. looks like a crab.

  • im gonna try making one wid my controll car that i got from my mom on my birthday that i cherish very much xD.... Nah im just kidding :D but i will try :P

  • Man.. those robots one time come to life when ur a sleep and they will killyou.. they will kill you..

  • haha xD

  • neat, wood.

    WOW it's so maneuverable

  • This one was cooler than the first

  • This robots hermroids have to be huge with all the butt dropping. Very cool though

  • the helicopter is cooler to use and fly with it, but the robot is cool to make

  • it is fantastic,

    im going to make one right now!!

    you should put a wireless camera on the top instead of lights.

  • HAHA almost a second WALLE

  • that's so cool! you could do work making movie gagdets.

  • it looks alive

  • It is interesting the way the middle part underneath (is that the batteries) is used occasionally almost as a fourth leg...

  • it looks like the robots of the impire ....star wars...

  • its awsome

  • sick :P

  • niice :)

  • i think its a nice thing but its not that intresting to buy it. it cant run fast only its clever to make and i dont think you will spend much time with it

  • Freak!

  • yeah man seriously sell them!!! or detailed instructions on how to make them...

  • hehehe IT'S so sweet :P

  • It's his hobby. You watch youtube videos, he builds robots.

  • what is the purpose of these shit WTF i cant get it, is it for sale, and where can i buy it.

  • is like the itle robot in gunbound lol.. the nyx launcher he red car... when he fires the litle suicide robots... its like it!!! niceeeeeeeeeeeeeee sell then ^_^

  • His big bro.

  • lol

  • the hind leg is the only one giving an effort to mobilized its self.

  • /watch?v=_SFTp8uGhk4

  • Very Metaculous. You should add quirky music to your demo. Give the robot some more personality since its organic movement is so extraordinary. I was wondering if you were going to make some eyes that have connection movement with other little quirky features. The legs, body, head all have a great off angular features that really gives bot a interesting look. How expensive is the helicopter that you used the parts for?

  • it looks a bit bity compared to swah bot 1, lol, great work, im gonna try and make one now, i have all the bits :D

  • ppllllleeeeeeease teach me how to make one =[

  • fur real it does

  • This guy should have been working for George Lucas in the early days

  • please make wow tripod

  • The Headcrab?

  • just a suggestion, but if you glue something rubbery to the back leg, i think it would move forward and back faster because it will stick to the ground better and u get more traction, just my opinion/suggestion

  • how bout all the legs

  • Then it wouldent go anywere XD

  • wheels on the front feet with a caster on the back foot might make an interesting addition.

  • i think a helicopteron his back would be cool... but i dont think it will happen.

  • neato! glad to see no 1 wasn't sacrificed in the making of 2.

  • please try to sell them to a company so they start producing them and then i can buy em

  • This one looks cool..but SwashBot 1 was cuter and a lot faster/

  • i think the 1st one was cuter. but that's awesome!

  • does that big thing fly.

  • Dude seriously give the damn thing an extra leg!

  • Sweet!!

  • can u make it move forward fast?

  • mabey put it on carpet for traction?

  • you could make a lot of money if you send the designs to a company and they like it and put it into producation, just a thought

  • it looks like hes doing the wave with his body lol

    AWESOME!!!! MORE, MORE!!!!!

  • looks like 1 of my drawings :P

  • omg omg omg I want 1!!! how much? omg omg omg still want 1 !!! you could get rich off these!!! lol

  • these robots ROCK! nice job!

  • wow take forever to move!! but great job tho that awsome!

  • thats awesome it looks like something off of Universe at war . from the Hierarchy faction.sweet !!!

  • OMG watch this video with "Justice - Let There Be Light (DJ Funk's Bounce Dat Ass)" playing in the background, I laughed out loud it fit so well! :) amazing robot, you need to post a vid of it dancing to said track!

  • haha, it does

  • cooooooooooooooollllllllllllll­llllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeoooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 3:47 looks like the swashbot is saying oh no u didn't

  • u no this 1 is faster than #1

  • number 1 was cuter

  • :D I love how the head compensates!

  • Kinda off topic, what are your feelings on bell-hiller upgrades?

  • its so cute wen it has trouble moving forward

  • it would be cooler if you could rig the part of the helocopter into a swash that could fly

  • i think this one is better engineered than the other one

  • i think number 1 was cooler lol

  • linkages is a tight word!

  • make him fly!

  • if i didnt know this was controlled i would be very very surprised at its apparent AI.

  • sicksicksicksick your awesome dude!!!

  • have you considered selling these? you may need some copyright crap from the guys who made the copter - i dunno im only 14 - but if these were on the market - i would consider buying!

  • No he probably wouldn't since he uses PARTS from the copter, and turned it into a completely different thing. Now if he just made some modifications to the copter and try to sell it as his own then yeah. But dude.... I'm 13 and I know this stuff. Plus it's not THAT easy to get something on the market.

  • uhh u do realize that you said he can't cuss he used parts from the thing and made it his own......which is basically the same thing as making modifications to the copter

    and if he was going to sell it they would both be illegal without letting the company that made the copter chip in or at least crediting them... thats like me taking a copter putting a different blade on the top and selling it.

  • smart guy :)

  • i think i prefer the hely :P

  • lol, that is unrealisticly freickin awesome! i def. want to buy one, im not good enough with electronics to make my own... hey, i got an idea, mabee you can make a second swashbot 2 ( my fav. outta the 3) then sell it to me over ebay! noone else just me : ) that'd be amasing.

  • use rubber things so it wont slip

  • you should make more and sell and get righ ;)

  • Once again the joint strucure is not really you getting any where. It can travel in circles, but what about a straight line at 3mph?

  • Dont use him on a slipy table!!

    then he would move faster

  • it's scary. But tht's so cool

  • hopefully you can sell this make to a product toy

  • so it is pretty much just 3 servos, a reciver, and a power source? Do you program the reciver for the response to the controller movements? please mail me on my username to let me know, Thank you

  • looks cool, the movement is weird. How about a wheel on the hind leg?

  • i think you need to make the back leg with a grip so it can go faster

  • his first swashbot had a rubber thing at the tip. it moved much faster

  • i think he/she should add more rubber on the last tip make it grip and go faster

    maybe even hop

  • reminds me of one of those weird crab things from the game "Oddworld"

  • i want one XD

  • that might just be the scariest thing that I have ever seen in my entire life... but it is still awesome.

  • t bag

  • god idea that's cool.

  • Once again, interesting.

  • that is awsome..
