This is a brilliant homemade project. Sure we can sit back and criticize why this is too long or why this controller is too large, but this machine is way cool. I don't have the skill set to reproduce characters from my favorite sci-fi television show. How many of you criticizing could do this or even conceive of it?
As a kid, I was fascinated by one tiny detail on B9: the winch-points on his shoulders! Those two silly little bits of metal had me dreaming of the day they'd attach cables and lower him into a cave... Alas, nothing is every attached to those little straps.
At 5:12 the robot says "Who turned out the lights?" twice. That sounds like a line from an episode of the current series of Doctor Who. Shorten the bubble extender so that at if the actuator travels its full distance you won't damage anything. I would also think it would be easier to put the arms in place before putting on the head.
I was 10 yrs old when Lost In Space aired for the first time. Irwin Allen created some great shows. Robot (B9) was way more believable tech than Robby the robot. The bubble extension issue can be fixed using a micro switch to kill the up power.
5:30 I have that same stereo in my car. It's a Kenwood KDC-U5049DAB. It has a removable face plate and comes with an infra red remote control. It can play files from USB sticks or receive audio input via a phono jack. It can also control an iPod.
Very nice,...now you have to incorporate some advance AI and really shock some people. Or how about adapting Amazon's alexa in the robots voice? Again, fantastic job!!!!
For the arms, it seems like an easier method for installation would have been some type of twist and lock method. A metal ring in the arm hole, with keyed notches, that match a plate on the arms. Fit each arm into place, and then turn them 90 degrees to lock them into place.
its funny how they use the new the new version of the themes opening music these days and rarely use the original one from the first 2 season . The funny part is that for the entire life spand of the show they allways described Jonathan Harris as a guess star instead of one of the main characters like he actually was . In fact most people liked the show mainly because of him and Billy Mumy and the robot named Robot . Many of us kids at the time played lost in space in our backyard and we would have someone playing the role of the robot using cardboard boxes and later when technology came up with automatic washers and dryers we used those white plastic spring like pipes for the exit of the dryer to use as robot arms and we ran arround the yard yelling ''Danger Danger Danger '' and other the role of Dr Smith. We had so much fun playing that when we were kids . I still remember when we played this late at night and that when time came to go to bed my mom would come out and yell bedtime and that we continued to yell ''Danger Danger Danger '' hoping she would let us play more . But naturally those were the end of the 60's and start of the 70's mOms did not fool arround and my mom allways said if you dont come in soon you will be in ''Danger Danger Danger '' My mom was good at being Ironic even if she ment it as a joke . These times were what made childhood and family of the 60's and 70's so special . When i see how todays kids lose that connection so soon with their parents before they become teens today it kind of makes me sad cause its not becasue you become a teenager that you need to seperate the good opportunities to make good memories with them cause those times will never come back . . How many kids today have fond memories good or bad about their teen years with their parents that now seem funny instead of drastic ? Shows like these are what reminds you of who you were and how happy familys were back then . Its with these shows that we became who we are today and how optomistic and joyfull we stayed all of our lives . I stil remeber how lovely i found Judy Robinson which is normal since she was only 20 years old which i was surprise to hear recently casue i allways thought she was much older than that like in Pennys case which was only 13 in real life but looked more like 18 with her big boobs and her silouette. never expected Maureen Robison to actually be 41 casue she didn't look old at all , I was more counting on 30 at the most but then again it wouldn,t have match with the age of Judy would it
@@peterloader974 why would he do that ? wasn't it more fruitfull to get a main character status ? Unless that by being called a guess star that gave him the option to leave at anytime he wanted to ?
That actually wouldn't help. The problem isn't the length of the extender, it's the distance of travel. Cut the conduit and in the retracted position it wouldn't be tall enough for the head to be in the right position when retracted. Basically it's the correct length when retracted, but it moves too far. The correct solution is to add limit switches so when it reaches the max allowable height it cuts power. Or a bit more brute-force, some kind of stop block so it can't move past a certain point tho that's a bit iffy, especially if you get some kid or dingus who just keeps holding the button once it hits the limit, you're just asking to break something or burn something out.
In 2017, a small mp3 player would be much smaller, lighter, use much less power, and provide far more, longer lasting, and easier to back up storage of he voice audio than an outdated CD player.
Why didn't you just attach the arms before placing the torso on to the lower half? You could have just used some tape across the claws to hold the arms in
The 3 aliens took the Robot apart and 2 humans put him back together, oh and Will helped, ,, sound familiar ? It's sweeter than my 88 camaro, lol !!! Sweet !!!!
I would have liked to have seen the original robot from the late 60s before the invention of the C.D player and Bluetooth it would have been either quite simple electronics or difficult with old school valves and a tape player.
Why is it that almost everyone that makes an assembly video, fails to show the finished product? Seriously, you couldn't just show the fully assembled Robot working for a few seconds?
Excellent rendition. Although the original had a more matte finish (prevents reflections from studio lights) the gloss on this one is like a car finish. Not bad.
This guy seems to know what he's doing, so why wouldn't he merely shorten the extender, so it was impossible to raise it beyond a certain point? Sooner or later someone will push that remote too long.
This is cool with the electronics but I would want an exact replica of the original where a guy could get inside and it still did stuff. The warning about the bubblehead raising too high and breaking will be a problem. Nobody reads/watches the instructions and kids who see it will run to it and play with the controls.
@Kimble Simpson You still don't get it do you but I guess you are the sort of person who, on a daily basis likes to try and put people down by stating the f+*&ing obvious. Here's an idea - wind your neck in and re-read our posts and then, just then you might have a lightbulb moment. Sadly, I very much doubt that will happen.
There was never a viper cockpit video game. Why? Not the slug thrower newer remake. Scanners super imposed with 3D ships in a star field. Would have been so cool.
@@CosFXStudios Hah! How are ya Bruce? The band was "Spoil The Child" with a frizzy-haired guy named Steve Busman. His wife played flute and we had a red-headed keyboardist who limped. Check out my album: talesofloveanddefiance.com .
There are only two plugs one with four connections and ..wait five connections and one with 5 no 6 connections no wait I mean 5 no …. six connections, yes six connections and this is plug number four ..., I mean 5 .. no six and the third plug I mean second plug has 5 ... no four ... yes 4 connections. Who is this guy? I guess he never heard of making a script and then testing it so that the plugs and the rest of the video is not so screwed up. This was really funny to watch.
Why wasn't the bubble lifter just altered before it was delivered so it would work correctly without fear of damage? It seems ridiculous not to have everything in perfect working order. Is there at lease a way to fix it correctly?Also, that Robot is crazy noisy. I have never heard a Robot making that much motor noise.
A craftsman would have included limiting micro switches , the fob controller is a real weak point in the system too much chance of inadvertent operation . This rates as a prototype in development.
I think the fact that it doesn't have a limit switch on the brain height and him saying if you extend it too far it will break is frankly ridiculous. The way it slams back down and jerks to one side making the brain section jerk with it is a terrible design. Also, him forgetting that it should be assembled with the power off, or even that there is a risk if assembled with the power on is really quite reckless and dangerous. Why not insulate all the wiring so that there is no risk? A CD player in 2017? Really? Good grief there are far better options available for sound and voice. The motors are way too noisy.. I imagine this robot costs thousands of dollars and these small details really are unacceptable. I've seen much better implementations of all this technology by amateur builders shown in other TH-cam videos
grew up loving this series, always wanted a 'robot' of my own. The intro with that count down STILL gets my heart beat going faster. :)

These people were the best, what a great job. Thanks.
The robot is as I remember him. Nice job people!
I WANT ONE! I ALWAYS LOVED THIS ROBOT SINCE I WAS A KID. MY DREAM ROBOT.
Great for security!
Excellent work. Absolutely amazing attention to detail.

I Loved This SHOW (Had a CRUSH on PENNY; Big TIME!) … NUFF Said ... “🍺 Dilly Dilly”❗
just look at the new series
2:02 Standard lifting hooks. 3:48 Standard trailer hitch/other electronic plugs.

The original or one of the robot B9 suits used in the show is in Swanton, Ohio on display.

Jonathon Harris requested the Special Guest Star billing as part of his contract. He wouldn't do the show unless he got it.
@@peterloader974 why would he do that ? wasn't it more fruitfull to get a main character status ? Unless that by being called a guess star that gave him the option to leave at anytime he wanted to ?
@@guytremblay1647 Watch this video: th-cam.com/video/-Hg9LPr-Glc/w-d-xo.html
June Lockhart is everyone's mom from those days.
Wow read about Jonathan Harris, he created the comedic/villain Dr. Smith character that we know and wrote his lines...."Oh the pain, the pain."
So why can't the bubble extender rod be measured and cut down to get rid of the excess height??
seemed the easiest to me , Have hacksaw will travel...
Only a bubble-headed booby would ask such a silly question!
The Jupiter II doesn’t carry a hacksaw on board!
It's a tragedy waiting to happen
The extender is plastic electrical conduit, if it extends too far just cut it off to the length that wont push the head off.....duh.
That actually wouldn't help. The problem isn't the length of the extender, it's the distance of travel. Cut the conduit and in the retracted position it wouldn't be tall enough for the head to be in the right position when retracted.

It's a wonder, but, yes, why is the bubble extender too long? You shouldn't be able to accidentally destroy the head. That's a serious design flaw.
great video
Have to admit, I’d love to have one myself. But to have a design where you can jam the torso and break the collar is silly, no? thanks
Awesome 😊
Why didn’t the put a limit switch on the bubble actuator to protect it?
I was wondering the same thing.
In 2017, a small mp3 player would be much smaller, lighter, use much less power, and provide far more, longer lasting, and easier to back up storage of he voice audio than an outdated CD player.
@@brianbatie6650 It used to have a an 8-track, but all they had were Beach Boys cassettes.
Why didn't you just attach the arms before placing the torso on to the lower half? You could have just used some tape across the claws to hold the arms in
i would love this ,dammm
Lenny looks a lot like John Hammond from the movie “Jurassic Park”
I've got my own,but mine is only about a foot tall!!!! it's also got the same voice as the one on here!!!!!!

At 14:47 you could replace those 18 screws with matched supermagnets.
Why is it that almost everyone that makes an assembly video, fails to show the finished product? Seriously, you couldn't just show the fully assembled Robot working for a few seconds?
Yo lo tengo ACTUALMENTE de la marca mexicana Lili Ledy tengo con el 52 años
Excellent rendition. Although the original had a more matte finish (prevents reflections from studio lights) the gloss on this one is like a car finish. Not bad.
Wonder if the original blueprints exist. I wanna see the real thing and what it was made out of.
This guy seems to know what he's doing, so why wouldn't he merely shorten the extender, so it was impossible to raise it beyond a certain point? Sooner or later someone will push that remote too long.
My thoughts exactly. It's a tragedy waiting to happen.
The music is so creepy...I Love it!!!
Bonnie Moerdyk The music was composed and conducted by John Williams of Star Wars fame.
Why all the lights below the push buttons on the front I don't remember those on the robot. I went back and looked. It's accurate. What does it cost
Awesome. Has anyone made a B9 that is designed to have a human inside?
I'm pretty sure the original B-9 was.
rotunda57 Well, yeah, but I mean models by or for collectors.
This is cool with the electronics but I would want an exact replica of the original where a guy could get inside and it still did stuff. The warning about the bubblehead raising too high and breaking will be a problem. Nobody reads/watches the instructions and kids who see it will run to it and play with the controls.
So cool. How much does something like this cost?
There's a company that will build it for you...$17,000
I love to show when I was a kid but I noticed when I got grown official Robinson had a package and a big one at that wow
ya think by 1997 the robot wood have had wi fi video and smalll drones to deploy from the robot body
Wish I had a robot.
Este robot parece una lavadora de los setentas
Olha o querido robo😍
"Where did he gets this wonderful toy"? The joker, Michael Keaton Batman.
This guy could make paint drying interesting. ...
This doesn’t look full scale to me,I can’t see a human fitting inside if the electronics were removed. 🤔🤔🤔

@Kimble Simpson Thanks. Yeah that is what I figured.
Hello thanks for post the video .can you tell me what kind paint Do you use in the torso.
I want one
Was that not the same robot in, "Forbidden Planet," starring Ann Francis and Lesley Neilson?
No
There was never a viper cockpit video game. Why? Not the slug thrower newer remake. Scanners super imposed with 3D ships in a star field. Would have been so cool.
What about the power-pack just behind and below right arm?
Where did you buy this wow
I want one!!!!
Great robot where can I get buy one from
Just go to deloreantimemachines.com and we can custom build you one.
Yes how much does a robot cost I heard about 30,000? And can you buy it or do you have to go to him special route thank you.
To bad the technology does not yet exist to make it totally functional and independent.
I used to be in a band with a Bruce Coulombe back in Cocoa. Same guy?
Yes

Where is the voltage generator for it's claws? The robot must protect us against unwelcome visitors otherwise known as door to door salesmen.
Where is the small square power pack that once pulled out the robot lost power
Why did you use a CD and not a usb flash drive with mp3 files?
How much dose it cost if you dont mind
So is this a new product for purchase and if so, what is the cost?
Skelly hello please email info@deloreantimemachines.com for more info
Where are you? I’d like to see this!
How much$$
Love the music 🎶 from that show. But why did everyone alien 👽 no how to pull out his power pack. Fix this.
As a fan I love the music but would have preferred it not be playing while he’s talking. Otherwise very cool
Sure makes a lot of mechanical noise.
It is an ancient t.v. Robot recreation. Not an iPad.
Looks like a modified sand filter body!
Not a full size,but looks great! Thanks for posting. 🙋🏻♂️👍👏🏴😉
Why would you say it's not full size?
Could u buy just the shell re; No electronics?
There are only two plugs one with four connections and ..wait five connections and one with 5 no 6 connections no wait I mean 5 no …. six connections, yes six connections and this is plug number four ..., I mean 5 .. no six and the third plug I mean second plug has 5 ... no four ... yes 4 connections.
Who is this guy? I guess he never heard of making a script and then testing it so that the plugs and the rest of the video is not so screwed up. This was really funny to watch.

All of that time and money going into the project and they couldn't put a max extension limiter on the bubble? 🤔
Why didn't you film in landscape
Sorry , I see you did
Balance it while I find the holes 🕳😜
A car stereo? CD even??
Looks like a washing machine drum...
Looks expensive. REALLY expensive.
he's very "glossy"
Ok wright all those instruction down.,or some.going to screw up my favorite robot ,and the head up and down should be fixed first .
Shorten the dam rod
So who sells the kits??
THANK YOU FOR THE DOWN LOADING OF HOW TO BUILD A ELECTRONIC REMOTE CONTROL ROBOT 🤖
And I can get one where?
We build them in our shop in oviedo florida
dont do this,dont do that,bad design......
Rod Amo can you do better?
That's in the nature of custom work like this. The fine craftsmanship is clear to see.
A craftsman would have included limiting micro switches , the fob controller is a real weak point in the system too much chance of inadvertent operation . This rates as a prototype in development.
Apparently constructive criticism is beyond you comprehension , building flaws into anything is called poor design , look it up.
