Hexapod Noob Here!

Lynxmotion Legged Robots

Hey everyone

I have been looking around for a new hobby, and because I am a computer technician, and a huge geek I naturally selected building robots. My reason for this post is because I have decided to purchase one of the phoenix Hexapod Kits. I was wondering what level of programing must one have to get the most out of that kit? I am the kind of person who dives head first into most of my hobbies. I realize this is no Lego Mindstorm but I have not seen anything that would suggests its beyond my means. Also I am interested in this kind of thing beyond unzipping and programming a board. What kind of programming language do these use, and how could one learn to write software for them? Any answers would be very welcomed. I do have a small history of programming so I understand a good amount.

Thanks very much

P.S. This will be my first Robot

The cool thing about our 3DOF hexapod robots is you can build and enjoy them with -0- programming experience. Our tutorials are pretty straight forward and easy to follow, but if you get stuck we are a phone call, email, or forum post away. However if you want to understand the code, you’ll need to brush up on your trig. There are a few here who can help with questions. Good luck!
