How about an affordable 6 servo biped!

with the idea of the 3 DOF arms has anyone thought of a quad thats has feet directly out the front and directly out the back? that has 3 DOF legs? that has biped feet so no fancy balancing systems would be needed, the feet would keep it balanced

idk i was just thinking of it :laughing:

got mine twitching like a bot with epilepsy. I need to work on getting things lined up right. using the mini-lynx I when I would 1500 all it was not standing tall.

best I can do now Is the lean to the Right or Left and stay balanced.

not bad for 15 mins of being able to use the laptop … I also think my battery died or I would have gotten a little more done.

defently a fun toy.

o now i definatley need one of those

Hi Jim, I’ve got a question and couple of files on Tao-Pie-Pie for you. I’ve sent you a PM.

Cheers, Harry

Here are some images of my sons BRAT with a www.wibotics.com wiport installed.


And here is a quick video.

I went from --> 8) to --> :open_mouth:

This thing is amazing for such a cheap small package. It has loads of character.

that Wifi Board is nice and I could use one of those. If anything for my spider (and Brat as well).

I can see this costing me more than the 240.oo for the kit :slight_smile:

What is the black bracket that appears to be supporting the wifi board and the antenna?

Here is another group shot. I will have a seventh one done when I finish the assembly pages today. :smiley: I think they were talking about me when I had my back turned. :open_mouth:

It’s a quick little part we cut out to get the thing mounted. We may make it available, but I want to make sure the board size will not change on the new board they’re working on.

It looks like you’ve got the v2 board on there.
The v3 board is the same dimensions as the SSC-32/ABB, though.
The mountin hole pattern is slightly off, so it needs a bit of redrilling to line up with the patterns of the other two boards, but that’s no biggie.

On the v3 board, there’s an optional-to-use mounting hole for an antenna, so you’ll probably want to use that instead of fabbing your own.

Yeah, I got one of those too, but the wire extending from the back of the antenna mounting socket forced me to use 3/4" standoffs to separate the two boards. So I opted to use the breakout board instead. It could be attached to my Lexan carrier with 3/8" standoffs. BTW, do you know the current consumption on that thing? It’s warm to the touch, so I figure it’s a few hundred mA at least. :open_mouth:
I will say it was relatively easy to get going. I passed it over to James (16) and said call for help if you need to. He did have to call for some guidance, but he got it working on his own. :smiley:

is there a parts list for this little guy? It sure is cool :smiley:

its on the very first page of this post near the bottom, heres the link

lynxmotion.net/viewtopic.php?t=736&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

What cam are you using on that thing?

thats a mini wireless pinhole camera. I have that on my surveilence robot. they cost about 60 $$ us and run on a 9v energizer battery. they input into a tv or tv/vcr on the video game channel (1,2,3 or just game).

they can be bought here:

superdroidrobots.com/shop/it … itemid=187

or at factorydirect.com or the factory direct store.

just so you know.
