Pilot Labs& Zeus Battle Robot captured our hearts at CES back in January, because, well, just look at this crazy thing:Seemingly against all odds, the ‘bot is now available for purchase through Amazon.
And the price tag is as insane as the rest of it: $1,600 for the kit and $1,700 for a pre-assembled version.
That price includes a wireless controller, battery, charger, case and the robot, naturally.
There are also a bunch of design files for further customizing it.
The Zeus stands 14-inches, weighs just under five pounds and sports 22 motors.
We were pretty impressed by the demo we got at CES, though that model hit a bit of a snag, after battling it out all day.
You can see in the video that it got a bit of a wonky arm thing going on.
Hopefully the shipping version has those snags worked out.The battery should get up to 50 minutes of fight time on a charge.
Pilot says it already working on future versions with AI, computer vision and, potentially, Alexa voice control.
It also plans to sponsor &an international fighting Robot contest with big cash prizes,& so maybe you can win back some the arm and leg that you paid for it.
