Spot Version 3 - Powered UP!
Rebuilt Spot with Powered UP functions!
See pictures below of Spot Version 1 (Left) and Spot Version 3 (Right) for size, scale, and detail comparison.
As you can see, scale of the build has increased with the added functionality and is now close to 1:3 scale.
Overall, very impressed with the speed and performance of the new Powered UP motors to handle the added size and weight of Version 3. Building a new Powered Up App to control Version 3 however, has proven a bit more challenging than the build itself:)
Videos of Version 3 walking and steering coming soon!
