'''Aero-Bot''' was chosen as the "very best", the strong and capable leader of the [[Go-Bot (species)|Go-Bot]] team. An intelligent and effective leader, he is also highly adaptable and can take on a number of different forms, including various jets and cars, a helicopter, and even a speedboat!

===Go-Bots===
====Cartoon====
:''Voice actor'': [[Paul Dobson]]

Aero-Bot was chosen by the [[Botropolis High Council|High Council]] as "the best" to lead Earth's Go-Bot Team on their mission to help Earth.

Aero-Bot led every Go-Mission known. First, while rescuing [[Human|humans]] from a typhoonicane (or something), he took the wild [[Silver-Bot]]'s flying challenge, on the condition that should Silver-Bot lose, he leaves [[Earth]]. The challenge involved racing to the roof of the Island Pearl Resort and taking the giant pearl on the decorative clamshell, then racing back to... some indeterminate point over the ocean. Aero-Bot got the pearl first, but then threw it into the water to create a wave to snuff out a fire that was blocking [[Speed-Bot]]'s bus-rescue efforts. Silver-Bot took this chance to take the oddly-buoyant pearl, but he got caught in the typhoon he accidentally caused! Ha-ha! Aero-Bot and Speed-Bot defied physics to dissipate the wind funnel and save Silver-Bot, who was immediately very grateful and returned to [[Botropolis]] to train hard and be a better Go-Bot.  {{storylink|Typhoon Twister}}

Next, Aero-Bot took [[Beast-Bot]] and Speed-Bot (and, unwittingly, [[Kid-Bot]] and [[Gas-Bot]]) to Alaska to help fix a pipeline that was broken by [[Mototron]]'s wild ride. Aero-Bot towed a heavy tanker up a mountain (surely not causing any ecological damage at all) so Strong-Bot could attach the gushing pipeline to it, but Mototron broke the chain. Aero-Bot then raced down and stopped the sliding ship, pushing it back uphill to finish the job. After Speed-Bot saved Mototron from a cave-in of his own making, Aero-Bot gave a speech to the immediately very grateful Mototron, who returned to Botropolis to train hard and be a better Go-Bot. He also admonished Kid-Bot and Gas-Bot for tagging along, punishing them with polishing chrome at the [[Go-Pod]]. They seemed to like it. Creepy.  {{storylink|Arctic Oil Spill}}

When [[Reptron (Go-Bots)|Reptron]] started tearing up some generic [[South America]]n craphole, Aero-Bot took [[Buzzer-Bot]] and Beast-Bot with him.  He and Buzzer-Bot used the detritus from Reptron's fun to build a dam, diverting the floodwaters Reptron inadvertently caused. The two then helped rebuild a ruin that Reptron and Beast-Bot's race was wrecking (well, that the ruin's own built-in deadly traps were wrecking). Afterwards, when Beast-Bot saved Reptron from a net trap, Aero-Bot gave a speech to the immediately very grateful Reptron, who returned to Botropolis to train hard and be a better Go-Bot.  {{storylink|Reptron's Rampage|Reptron's Rampage}}

After receiving the illustrious [[Go-Shield]], Aero-Bot was informed by the reformed Silver-Bot that Botropolis had developed [[Go-Brillium]], which gives Go-Bots vague powers. Unfortunately, the two test subjects, [[Racer-Bot ALPHA]] and [[Racer-Bot BETA]], ran off, testing their new powers in a galaxy-wide race ending on Earth. Concerned ''only'' with Earth, Aero-Bot and Speed-Bot got their own shot of Go-Brillum from [[Hauler-Bot]]. They raced to the desert where the Racer-Bot twins ended up, and Aero-Bot used his new Flying Fists powers and Go-Brillium to save human racers in danger, and then save the Racer-Bots when their Go-Brillium ran out and ''they'' ran out over a cliff. Aero-Bot gave a speech to the immediately very grateful Racer-Bots, who returned to Botropolis to train hard and be better Go-Bots.  {{storylink|Racer-Bot Road Rally}}

Reptron, testing out his strength in [[Earth]] orbit, knocked a comet towards the planet.  [[Silver-Bot]] spotted the comet just as it was breaking in two, and Aero-Bot was able to save the world with his Flying Fists! {{storylink|Aero-Bot Flying Fists}}

====Toy bios====

The young Aero-Bot really, ''really'' wanted to fly, but required a helping hand from [[you|others]] in order to transform. Once he was transformed, he streaked through the universe, delighting in making aerial stunts... but he was also concerned with defending the Earth! But later, he would become the strong, capable leader of the Go-Bots! {{storylink|#Playskool Big Adventures|Aerobot}} {{storylink|#Playskool Go-Bots|Aero-Bot (2002)}}

While perfectly designed for flight, he was prepared to assume non-jet modes for specific missions. To reach places on the ground, he temporarily assumed car form as both Aero-Bot II and Aerobot Racer, though as Aero-Bot II he needed help from ''you'' to learn how to be a car. He later modified his jet form to have flying fists, allowing him to rescue out-of-control cars.

His greatest challenge came when his comrade [[Beast-Bot]] was transformed into the nasty Preditron! Aero-Bot had to keep the team together and lead them into saving their friend. {{storylink|#Playskool Go-Bots|Flying Fists Aero-Bot}}

The Earth was bombarded by [[Glow Rock]]s while Aerobot was on a mission to Botropolis.  Aerobot had to free his teammates and destroy the meteorites in order to save the Earth.

''Aerobot had two modes in this game, a helicopter and a speedboat, that appear in no other media.  The helicopter is probably based on an unreleased 'Aerobot Chopper' toy.'' {{storylink|Go-Bots: Glow Rock Rescue|Glow Rock Rescue}}
