"Dance arms" config & Startup position

[Ketchup]

Hi all.
I changed my arm configuration to the "dance arms". Is there a way to change the startup configuration (the one that happens when you press the red button on the remocon)?

I noticed the Bioloid, Robonova, and the Kondo all use this arm configuration and I wanted to use it, too.

Thanks a bunch!

I think I have found the answer ... seems this is embedded in the RBC and can't be changed. (I'd love to be wrong!)

This position is different from the "zero position".

I think you're right - the rbc has a number of embedded motions for only 3 configs (huno, dino, doggy), anything else is considered custom.

Can you post your dance arm style RB image?

I'd like to see that how you change the basic position.

BuilderCop,
Check this out on Robobuilder.net:

I used that PDF to make the change. It's just the 90 degree turn of wCKs 12 & 15 (and the "hands" if you want to.)

I changed it back to the normal arms after a day. I'll probably change them again since it's so easy.

I have an iSobot. Since I've seen other 'bots imitate the "eagle", I tried it just now.

It's a little rough (first "draft") but it works.

You can get the file from my file manager, but you have to rename it to .rbm and you need the "dance arm" config. (The files I create that need the dance arm config will have "da-" in front of them)
