We design and manufacture high-mix drone motors and robotic actuators in LA.
DJI, Apple, and Ford don't settle for OTS components. Likewise, the teams that win the Western robotics market will build seamless machines from tightly integrated software and hardware.
Pendulum Robotics designs motors and actuators around your robot's unique form factor and mission - then we rapidly bring them to life with proprietary software and tooling geared for high-mix machining and assembly. Our first factory in LA can create thousands of motors per month up to 200mm OD.
We're doing for motion components what 3D printing has done for structural components. Hardware teams that can build and iterate at the speed of software will create elegant, reliable, ROI-positive robots and win massive markets.

Is this you?
If you're behind Pendulum Robotics: acceptance into a YC batch is one of the few weeks a young company gets looked up by people who matter — investors, other founders, press. FoxPlug turns the commits, deploys, and releases you're already making into that story automatically, so anyone who looks finds something current. GetFoxChat puts a guide on your own site so the people YC's own page just sent you don't read one line and leave.
