If the 35kg is in fact needed (which I’m not prepared to debate, probably needed, but I can’t prove / disprove), you are exactly right. Yes, you could maybe save a couple dollars with cheaper servo brands, but honestly for a 35kg servo, you’re going to pay a decent amount for 12 of them.

Yes and I noticed this robot can jump completely off the ground. Pretty nice!
