Holy crap!!! WOW, and ....more! Amazing!! I wants!

Man I need that for my suit.

Thats Honus's build and it is quite hard to do. Parts alone cost over almost 300.00. Then you need the arm and the mounting plates.

We're getting the "hard to do" part. Doesn't stop the jealousy...

I really wanted to make it metal or aluminum but needed to make this as easy and cheap as possible... the arms I made was just rubber-sheet (foamies is that called?) reinforced with plastic card (sintra) and the hinges were all plastic tubes, uses just 3 servos; a 9g servo, a 19g servo and a 37.2g standard servo (salvaged from an old tamiya car) then powered by my old electric RC helicopter's 11.1v battery (had to make the voltage regulator circuit so that it would output only 5v)

I'm not jealous just waiting to do that part myself, and wondering were to get the arm and platform.
