Build: Mosquito

When thinking about models to build for this contest, I wanted to build something different. All of the main models can drive around so I decided to make a stationary model. My idea was to make a dragon fly. However while building, I realized that the M-Motor looks like a trunk so I decided to go for an insect like a mosquito instead. The wheels were the perfect fit for eyes in relation to the motor.
As a bonus, you can detach the mosquito from the stand to move it through the air by hand.
This model has 3 Motors and 1 or 2 sensors. One motor can move the face/trunk, one can move the wings and one can move the stand. it has a distance sensor to see if something is infront of it and I would use the gyrosensors in the new hub to check if the model is beeing moved around. This way it can defend attackers.
