Cubee Robot https://amzn.to/3hny6x7 Wowstick Screwdriver: https://ebay.us/qfO4kv Replacement Servo Used: SG90 Servos: https://ebay.us/Jqp6bb Polymorph Low Temp Plastic : https://ebay.us/1edDEu CellMeter 8 Servo Tester And LIPO battery discharger: https://ebay.us/FhwD5i After my Cubee Robot Bluetooth Speaker took a fatal dive at the floor, I am determined to fix my Cubee problems I found in Part 1. In Part 2 I tore down Cubee and I Identified that the right leg and hip servos were broken and needed to be replaced. In this Part 3, I replaced the Cubee right ankle servo, what I imagined would be a simple task of extracting the broken servo and swapping in a replacement took far longer and was more difficult than than I expected. In this part 4 I replaced the right hip servo which was indeed damaged. I always advise people to watch the entire video series if they wish to copy (at their own risk) what I have done, but in this case its crucial you do or I can almost guarantee you will make the same mistakes I did, or worse and as I have the tools and resources to correct things you may be left with a Cubee you broke. Simple Don't skip through this video series if you have a Cubee.

Dancing Cubee Robot After #fixed1t Repair

I had somebody ask why I bothered to fix these £60 robots when they broke, they asked why I didn't just throw them away and get another.


To me its not about money, I can easily afford to buy new, its about not contributing to the rubbish mountains for broken electronic gadgets and toys, It's about fixing things so they can be passed on to new owners, who maybe couldn't afford the original full price, but can afford a second hand device, and imagining their joy when the open the boxes and find not a damaged seconded hand robot but one which is better than new. # Its also the joy of fixing that which is broken. My Cubee robot is Dancing and Singing as new after #fixed1t​ successfully replaced all four of his leg and hip servos damaged when he dived off my desk whilst I was using him as a bluetooth speaker to demonstrate my MadWaves MadPlayer. There is a link to the repair video series in the top right hand corner of the video.


If you have Tiktok You can find Cubee and many other of my dancing robots their, just search for #fixed1t​.

Unboxing CellMeter 8 Servo Testing Battery Discharge Checker


Unboxing and servo testing a CellMeter 8 Battery Voltage Capacity Checker, Balance Discharger/Servo Tester. This unit provides a quick way to test 5v servo's instead of setting up an Arduino or other micro processor, where a software or programming bug could give false results about Servo's. Its far better to know the servo is working before you start a project than to be writing and rewriting code or building new circuits believing your code is faulty when its a dead or damaged servo.

How To Tear Down An Anki Cozmo

#fixed1tROBOTtips A recently purchased Anki Cosmo turned out to have both a defective screen(just black pixelated with white dots) its full of stars and dying battery, so I plan to replace them both. I was hoping to repair the screen but given yet another stupid manufacturer Anki apparently paranoid about intellectual property had proprietary screens made by a manufacturer who no longer makes them, and Anki themselves went bust, it leaves owners in another stupid position. My view is if they have used standard screen hardware people would have been able to keep using them and get them fixed and companies wouldn't go bust due to increasing numbers of returns they can't fix and broken stock they can't recycle. This is part one of a three part video. Part One: Tearing Down An Anki Cozmo Please Subscribe #fixed1t youtube to be informed about the release of: Part 2: Identifying and replacing a Anki COZMO Battery Part 3: Re-assembling an Anki COZMO Re-assembly is not as simple as you may think which is why other videos say, now I'll put it back together and end.
