Do you guys understand this robot entirely? If yes , can you contact my YouTube account please. My father bought me one of these when they first came out and I have a problem with the back track gears not connecting with each other so I skips some treads when trying to make it balance on it's rear tracks.

I think its pretty cool. I would build one if I had 600 to spend. Dont mind the haters, they jealous.
-
gotta love that seductive music.

After seeing this video we looked long and hard to find the original robot. We finally have a variant available at RobotShop (product code RB-Oci-01). Note that the maximum stair height it can climb is about 6 inches. This makes a great platform for development.

whats the name of the music used in this video? pretty awesome robot!

Let's see it climb curved stairs.
And what toysRus did you get this from again?

Ebay, and then rebuilt the innards. Hey...it was a cheap platform to start from, and with a $600 budget...sometimes you have to start cheap.
Can't buy a $50,000 robot on a $600 budget.

"And yes it does matter?" Honestly, now that you've established its not a "robot," how did that matter? Exactly what has been accomplished by that? Do you feel better? Feel smarter? Just curious what the important point you were making was...

this is just an RC... no robot?

Honestly, you actually took the time to post this comment? Its a remote-controlled vehicle, that can be deployed into a house. It sends a video signal back out so it can be driven, and explore the house. It is what it is. If you don't want to call it a "robot," that is fine. Admittedly, it has no artificial intelligence, and no articulatable arms or tools. The project is dead, so it doesn't really matter a whole bunch what we call it, eh?

Is it my imagination or is this the music from the toilet scene in trainspotting... when he goes down under water to get the suppositories.

Yes. I know the music is from Trainspotting. Good ear. I'm not sure its the toilet scene, but its as likely as not.
