Hi all,

I would like to introduce you to my latest biped based on the Powered Up platform. Here's a copy and pasted quick introduction - 

Introducing Bot 7 - My 7th generation LEGO Powered Up humanoid biped. The bot is built with 8 Technic Large motors.
Bot 7 has 6 DOF for leg movement and 2 motors for shoulder joint and arm movement. The bot has been programmed 
using the Powered Up app. Battery boxes have been placed on the side of the bot to improve body tilting for movement
and provide stability when the bot perform a hip + knee tilt. This bot features - 

* Large step size continuous movement (forward, backward, left and right turn)
* 360 degrees shoulder movement
* 270 degrees arm movement
* Incredible hip + knee tilt without touching the ground
* a highly recognisable t-shirt 7 :)

Comments are welcome, happy building!

Very impressive!

I love the fact that you used the Control+ electronics for it rather than the Mindstorms ones; C+ seems to have most of the programmability of Mindstorms, but its inclusion in so many sets that don't need its programmability make it cheap!

Thanks 2GodBDGlory. I love the fact that Control+ allows me to send commands to multiple hubs at the same time, unlike the 51515. But the weight of the battery is definitely a factor in limiting the number of hubs I can use (the bot may not be able to move if carrying too many battery boxes), I guess that's where the 51515 hub is better due to the lighter weight of the battery.

I will definitely try to add another battery box (an another 4 motors) to it, let's hope the bot can hold up.

Happy building!
