You are right, hexapod is a pretty good target for this board.
Hope I’ll finish printing parts for my quadruped, then upgrade to hexa with a veyron board for sure.
It’s time for me to stop hesitate around powering my robots and try the solution I read here.

This design looks wonderful.

I got picked for one of these too… Very excited! Still not sure what i’ll be using it in yet though.
