Re: Invertible, expandable, double bar spinner, wheeless brushbot called Vibrant.

That's one of the most original robots I've ever seen :P How much does it weigh? The version in the picture was almost 150g, but after getting it confirmed that it should be classed as a walker/shufflebot I am working on bigger motors, aluminium blades with Carbide tips and going for the 225g limit...
