Tamiya RC Insect Kit A total self-link - pictures of a toy remote controlled robotic insect kit being built.[More:]Please delete if I'm breaking guidelines/etiquette.
Oh that is so cool, porpoise. I want one. So many evil things could be done with this.

There has to be a way to make that wireless.... !

There is so totally a way to make it go wireless; I'm looking up the parts to jury rig into this. More juice to make it go faster and better feet for the legs, too.

porpoise, you fabulous geek, you. That's wonderful. Thanks for posting it.

Sucks that it's not wireless, but I think the motion of it is really cool (and a little unexpected). As Tim Taylor would say, "It needs more power!"

Its pretty neat but I'm not sure how you'd mount a machine gun to it.

I remember reading about a hack where you can control Lego Mindstorms gear with a wireless PDA, maybe that'd be an option here?

I am always telling people that Mel Gibson is just as nuts as Cruise... || Renter's insurance in NYC?
