ROBO is BACK!!!!
WE LOVE it when ROBO comes to TOWN!
ROBOSAURUS is an electrohydromechanical machine of prehistoric proportions designed and built for a single purpose: entertainment. Standing 40 feet tall and weighing 58,000 pounds, it is the worlds first real monster - not a mere Hollywood special effects fantasy like GODZILLA or KING KONG.
ROBOSAURUS demolishes cars and thrills auto extravaganza crowds. He lifts cars weighing 4,000 pounds 50 feet in the air while breathing 20 foot flames that incinerate paint and plastic. He bites cars in half, rips off their roofs, and crushes them in his monster sized hands before hurling the mangled carcasses to the ground.
ROBOSAURUS is controlled by a human pilot strapped inside the monster's cranium -- just like the imaginary TRANSFORMER and GOBOT toys. He also hydraulically transforms himself rapidly into a legal licensed trailer (fifth wheel pin under his jaw) for easy transport from show to show.
To give ROBOSAURUS life, its creator, Monster Robots, Inc. of California worked closely with Parker Hannifin Corporation of Cleveland, Ohio and P-Q Controls, Inc. of Bristol, Connecticut. Eight divisions of Parker assisted in designing a unique turnkey system of cylinders, valves, pumps, motors, filters, seals, hoses and fittings.
P-Q Controls helped develop the sophisticated fly-by-wire electronic system that enables the pilot to have full independent control of eighteen hydraulic functions simultaneously. This is essential for smooth lifelike coordinated motion during a show.
