Hi
Indeed ROKI is very popular in Korea and I saw many of those in KRGF.
ROKY looks like a modified RN 1. The servos are still Hitec (or so they seem).
I have tried to look it up on the internet but I was unable to find any resources on it in english.
From what I understood it may be produced by Mini Robot the same company who designed the Robonova I.
Hitec later licensed the design of Robonova I from Mini Robot and released it under its own brand.
However, from the latest I've heard the relationship between Hitec and Mini Robot has gone down-hill and thus I would not know what to expect at this point in terms of a new Robonova.
The robot you see in the video I believe is produced by Mini Robot but I haven't yet heard of anything such as availability, english software/manuals, etc.
One other thing: the robot you see on the video is not ROKY. It seems to be based around ROKY but the "hands" are different in this video.
