I’ll see about making a video. I actually don’t know the state of the battery since I haven’t used it in a while. If you want to see some of the moves, this is the promotional video for it. The fact that it uses typical RC servos was the biggest selling point for me. Typically, these types of robots have custom servos that are easily $100+ per servo and use anywhere from 15 for a basic model to 20+ for a more advanced model.
 
Ehhh, I wish it was like that with robots. I guess if you pony up for commercial-class stuff like the Lynxmotion PRO series servos (they start at $1k), you could use 6s they are typically used for robots between 4 and 5 feet tall. But with the size of the robots I prefer, they typically don’t go over 3s. Plus, with a lot of it being closed-source stuff, you really don’t want to risk burning up components—unless you can afford it. Now, as for a jetpack, does a hexacopter count? I used one of the drones I used for my DSLR camera to parachute a robot before, but not this one.
