Introducing the STALKER! (project ended)

I like this. It’s a relatively easy mod. Nice idea!

On the PC boards. You may be able to reduce the height of the stack by turning the SSC-32 over. Then you can stack the Bot Board on it with a 1/4" spacer. There should be ample room for the wires with the “H” design of the carrier. You may need to flip it so the DB9 is facing the away from the Sharp sensor.

Nice, as good as the old design, except for the towering electronics. :smiley: If you can reduce the stack of electronics, it would look perfect.

You also seems to have endless supply of SES bracket, how many did you actually bought?

Hi,

This design are going to make the leg stronger, espescially when the coxa servo are far from its center position. To be honest I liked the previous design a little better, but your new design looked great too and you did a great job making Stalker look similar to what you want. I also liked the detail Jim pointed out with the brackets! A smart and easy mod.

I’m sorry for not beeing able to help you out with the IK. Good thing the IK isn’t any trouble anymore though. :wink:

hi guys, thanks for your comments.

very good idea i will try this to see how it looks. thanks for the idea.
i wouldnt have thought it would be a problem for the ik and if anything having low body would help with the COG. :wink:

yeah i actually went to do this but am going to order your carrier to do
this with. the one i made didnt really give enough room for the wires. so you’ve sold another one there! :wink:

i have plenty of SES. collected over the years. iv got enough to build a hexapod completly out of SES plus a few other parts but not as much as jim! :laughing:

thanks, i wouldnt worry bout that, im happy with it anyway and my be sometime in the futre we can work on a robot with tilted servos for experiments or so. :wink:

thanks for your help on this anyway.

thanks guys.**

update:

i have flipped the SSC b2b with the ABB reducing the stack. but i have also used the old Chassis plate again on the top.
here includes:

i have kept the Leg config the same.

SWEET! :open_mouth:

thanks jim. i will update my contest page soon.

Great pics and modifications!

btw, whats the total weight including all batteries?

i will borrow some scales and get the total weight.
i would think its about 4-5lb but i will check this! :arrow_right:

Lookn’ great!

Outdoor pics really look nice. So much better then indoor lighting.

Can you climb that flagstone pile yet?

Did you ever try flipping the C bracket to see if it will lower the COG?

i havent been able to get it walking yet due to a problem either with my atom or connections. im workingon this.

i did on one leg to see how it would look and cosmeticaly it didnt look right. the body looked to low. may think about putting it on the face of the “C” bracket but only once iv sorted my small problem.
