Super Engine Bot
Here are some pics of the boy’s newest robot kit – which he has named Super Engine Bot.
It can be setup with one of four different arm or leg configurations at a time. First we built it with the ‘orangutan mode’ which has arms and it swings them to move along a string suspended off the ground. (No pictures yet)
Now we have the ’spider mode’ legs on and it moves as you’d imagine. Next will be the ‘gorilla mode’ legs and last the ‘centaur mode’. Apparently, gorillas have 2 legs. We’ll report back here on which one moved the best and which was the boy’s favorite in the end…
