I'm fine with creators wetting their beaks when they put a lot of work into something.
Do they have a costed BoM for this? I'd hate to drop 20 bucks just to learn I need to drop another 200 bucks.
I didn't see one, but I didn't look very hard. It wasn't in the video when I watched. I'd say $200 is probably way low. That much hardware, bearings, ardy, modules, a few spools, RC controller, wires, connectors, a shield, components, lights, motors, servo... Probably falls somewhere around the $500-$800 range, if you try to buy them all at once and not the piecemeal and partial collections most of us have already. In all likelihood most of us will need at least half that spend to get everything needed. If one did this with Adafruit, McMasters, a US board house, and high quality filament, it could easily top $1k.
