What if they replaces Sentai robos suit actors with some sort of animatronic robots ?

It'll never happen. Suit actors are far cheaper than animatronic robots, especially because the robots have to punch each other in the face.

Perhaps, those animatronic robots could be controlled ?

???
Not a snowball's chance in heck of that happening. Come on this isn't Robot Wars for pity's sake. The only thing I can see is they start doing CG series out right so they don't have to build any thing.

Do you think Hasbro will use a suit actor for Megazords for next PR seasons ?

Again also not a snowball's chance in heck on that count.
Megazords will be made the same as always. If we get another Toei pick this will make it less likely as the Mega Zord footage will have been made. Netflix is using Kyu Zord footage and bad guy footage for Cosmic Fury so we got a light hybrid of sorts again. Not sure if we'll see any Ranger footage from Kyu. 5 Man and Jet Man are more likely to be adapted for Power Rangers as the DVDs have physical releases. They would need to clear it through Toei to use the footage for Power Rangers. It would also be more likely for the other 13 pre Zyus if we get a DVD release. The footage would have been cleaned up for use. Netflix might at some point do Pre Zyu stuff if they wanted to.

All animatronics are controlled. Thats not even in question. The fact of the matter is that animatronics are far pricier and unwieldy than hiring a guy in a stunt suit. Animatronics are also very delicate and slow, plus breakdown easily. Toei uses stuntmen in suits bc its cheap and easy to direct the stuntmen. All pr productions have reused the japanese mecha footage. For original footage they either had the mecha suits shipped over and filmed those few scenes or had toei do it. Hasbro has sort of avoided filming original mecha footage entirely bc they've opted to use In-house CG models for their original mecha scenes. That is even cheaper than a stunt man and the models can be reused for other original mecha footage. I dont see the stunt men being replaced or hasbro dropping the cg anytime soon. These shows are meant to be filmed on the cheap and animatronic mecha are faaaar too problematic to replace the current production methods.

Hence the reason to just use megazord footage already made. Most ground fights are US made.
Here's what I've worked out Adapt Zord footage and make their own morphed footage fight footage. So Hasbro is building the Kyu footage around US morphed outfits for ground fights. That happened with MMPR II and III. They retained the Zyu outfitsand built Dai and Kaku around it. That's why Zyu felt out of place. X Men With Apocalypse in resuming with X 2 - X Men United. Missed a few after Origins - Wolverine. Most during the First Class era.

I totally agree with you on that. Also i believe any scenes where they show the cosmic fury rangers in the same scene as the megazord, like looking at it from the outside, the megazord will be cg. They did that for dino fury too for any original scenes where they had the rangers looking at the megazord. The ground footage was theirs and the robot was cg. So i dont see that changing for cosmic fury.
