From the post:

>[JesseDarr] recently wrote in to tell us about their dynamic Arm for Robitc Mischief (dARM), a mostly 3D printed six degrees of freedom (6DOF) robotic arm that’s designed to be stronger and more capable than what we’ve seen so far from the DIY community. The secret? Rather than using servos, dARM uses brushless DC (BLDC) motors paired with ODrive S1 controllers. He credits [James Bruton] and [Skyentific](two names which regular Hackaday readers are likely familiar with) for introducing him to not only the ODrive controllers, but the robotics applications for BLDCs in the first place.

I've been considering making one of these. There are quite a few that are 3d printable on makerworld. This one is real nice but also REAL expensive!!

Yeah, they are pretty cool. At the moment I don't have a real project for one so I have not built one but then again... I would like to buy one that is being decommissioned from a factory or something or has a bad controller board and to fix it. That would be damn cool.
