RoboCat – A Self-Improving Robotic Agent

I am eagerly awaiting a cheap clone of Dynamixel quality servos.

Is it really just tuning? That seems like something that would pay off for an aliexpress copycat. A servo is pretty simple/cheap to build, right?

I guess there are only a handful of us who really want high-accuracy, high-torque component servos...

There is FEETECH on ali-express. About 0.5-0.25 times Dynamixel price. I've never tried it though. You're right very few of us want High Torque and High Accuracy which is the problem

Will MKS SERVO42 going to work? Installs onto back of NEMA17 stepping motors, works in closed loop using magnetic encoder, has to be stepped but infinite rotating and $20 apiece with a motor. Latest 42D variants seems to work with CAN or RS485 too.
