What does pleo rb look like in off position?
« on: January 17, 2015, 05:34:36 PM »
After my ugobe pleo's tail stopped working I've been paranoid about my pleo rb >.> I've noticed in the off or "sleep" position his head tends to droop and I can move it up and down easily whereas my ugobe's neck has resistance in all directions when in the packing position. My rb can move his neck in all directions normally when he's on but his necks floppyness in the packing pose worries me. I tried googling images of neutral pleo rbs but I couldn't find any good side shots. Does anyone have a good profile picture of a pleo rb in off mode to help me judge how much droop is normal?

These shots are in packing/off position:


And this is:


If you compare side by side, most Pleos have slightly different head angles, several members have Pleos and Pleo RBs with a slight head tilt or angle.  If a cable is broken, you'll usually find there is little or no resistance if you push against it in one of the directions ..... for example, if the top up/down cable has gone, the head droops to the floor, or if the bottom one has gone it will fall back if you hold the Pleo upside down.  If you still have a full range of movement and there IS resistance when pushed in every direction, I wouldn't worry too much.  I hope that helps?  :moose-xmas:

In the flat battery position though, they'll have head and tail down.

i'm a bit late but thank you very much for the replies! Biscuit head position look very much like your blue rb InmemoryofRomeo, so I assume it's normal. I'll take a picture of him in off position tomorrow and do a little comparison to the photos you posted :D

Don't worry too much about slight differences, some of mine have slightly lower necks in the off position, it's just due to differences in the neck cables stretching.
