Evil Robot of Doom!

I made this thing today using parts from 2 hard drives, a old Sony CD player, an RC car, sim cards, a lighter and a pinewood derby car. It is equipped with motors to make it move, a flamethrower and a light-up face with LED. I can get the flame from the flamethrower much bigger but my lighter was running low.

wow that looks funny LOL

If you ever end up modding, here's a suggestion: Try replacing the flamethrower with two upside-down cans of air. You now have a cryo-thrower! (it will actually create frost on a sprayed object.)

Ok you got a flame thrower, now lets see rocket launcher! It's pretty cool btw, nice work.

[Madrias357]

I know I'm a little over a year late, but use the flame thrower to light off a bunch of bottle rockets.

that looks evilishly doomish and could be a leader of robot anarchy. keep it in a cage.

[Rock Soldier]

Fireproof cage

I keep it on a high shlef so if it tries to do anything overly doomish it falls off. : )

[EnigmaMax]

that works too.

No, there is no programming because I just wanted it to be simple, it just drives around and usually gets stuck on things. :P

[Mattrox]

looks great im definetly going to make one. is the flame thrower turn on maunally or by the push of a button

[Charles IV]

Unfortunately it's manual, but if I really wanted to I could make it button operated.

[Mattrox]

cool

[Sir-Jackington]

Extremely cool and very inventive

how did u get the flamethrower to work becaue i am kinda new to robots and i want to put a flamethrower on top of an RC hummer

[Charles IV]

Just take apart a cheap stick lighter and find the little hose in it. Then hook that hose up to a can of bullet Axe.

[scooterc3p0]

would it work with a can of lynx and a hose

[Charles IV]

It will work as long as the hose is airtight and lynx is flammable. But it might be kinda big.

[Kopolis777]

Really cool,now can we have an instructable to build it?

[Charles IV]

YES I GOT FEATURED!

[Firebert010]

That's neat, that's really interesting that you built that all from a couple hard drives ans some other parts.

[highvoltage]

Lol, this inspired me to start doing my own robot of doom (muehehe!)

[iman]

that is freakin sweet..... if only it was a robot of doom :)

[Weissensteinburg]

[iman]

Now just make fifty of them and take over a shopping mall or two...

Is the left arm the flamethrower? This little guy's awesome...You need to put a little voice recorder on so it can jabber incomprehensible muttering as it bites off your ankles.

[Charles IV]

Yes, the left arm is the flamethrower.

[Patrik]

Very cute! Creative use of materials. I get the impression the flamethrower isn't hooked up yet - in the 4th and 6th pictures, you can spot the tiny fuel hose snaking down from the upraised arm, but it's not connected to a fuel tank yet. I'm looking forward to the finished version!

[GorillazMiko]

That looks awesome! I want to see the flamethrower as well! :-)

[Weissensteinburg]

I'd like to see the flame thrower...
