Your new robot looks great. You will soon (if not now) be able to post links…
I have downloaded at least one of these programs as well as the code above in this thread and they compile fine. So my guess is that you may not be using the correct compiler. Make sure you are using version 8.0.1.7 of the Basic Atom Pro compiler. Note the compilers for the Pro and Non-pro are not interchangeable. There are several links to this compiler in the forum and I believe as part of Xan’s project. Also you can go up to the BasicMicro web site: basicmicro.com/ViewPage.aspx?ContentCode=d_basicatompro
As for finding an error. You should be able to double click on the error message and have the source window move to the offending line. Also if you look toward the bottom right hand corner of the IDE window you will show the current cursors line number and column number.
That’s ok, no hard feelings
But I meant what I said, your hex really deserves to have his on thread! Please feel free to let me know if you need some help with something.
Your hexapod are extremely well made, very pro looking. I love your tibia design and how well you made it fit to the custom servobracket. Looking forward to see it walk.
The only con is the MG995… To be honest I think your hexapod deserve more than that But it’s a great start and they can easily be replaced.
OK, I’m going to try some image posting of the Ox18 Hexapod. BTW, anyone have an idea or two for a better name? I just called it the Oval/18 servo Hexapod, or Ox18. . . .boooooooorring. . . . . .
So I’ll try one and see the results, then post more. http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/8131/ox18ps28ow8.jpg
Let’s see how that looks. I’m using the recommended size for forums as suggested by Image Shack.
Thanks!! I have a conventional machine shop in my garage and am working on a small home-brew CNC router for bot parts, but it is not that far along yet A friend on mine loaned me his CAD and showed me enough about it to draw profile parts for cutting on CNC. One of his co-workers runs a really BIG cnc laser cutter. He is fascinated by what we are always making, so he cut out my parts from a lot of drop material as part of his daily duties. it took about two weeks to get it all done “on the side.” 8) A case of Budwieser longnecks mysteriously appeared in the bed of his truck that same week . . . . .
I’m going to try my hand at posting a video linked to You Tube. hopefully this will work so I don’t have to make several tries.

If this works, you will see initial demos of all the main movements & translations. This bot is a bit heavy, as it has a 7.2 volt “c” battery pack. It also has a lot of tibia drive train “sloppiness” on the left side, and the cables need a more professional looking run. It’s a work in progress. I’ll be back with some code questions later. Many thanks to Zenta, Xan, & Lynxmotion!
Thanks! I got my anti abrasion weave ( I think that’s what it is called) from a friend’s job. His company throws away a lot of extra and he collects it. The best places to look would be on eBay, or online electronics supply. One could also use heat shrink.
