Why are you so negative towards this? It's just an Open source project... who cares how good it is. It's a great way to learn, and play, and experiment.

That post is in the category „all knew it was impsossible until some stupid with no idea made it“

That somebody was 4 decades failing, does not mean that at some point it won‘t be possible. In the last 4 decades the prices have lowered and the quality is much better in the RC world, if you know where to buy.

I did not mean to criticize a hobbyist project for existing.

I meant to say "There is a reason there is no standard hobbyist-grade robotic arm."
