Phil Is Made of very light weight aluminum, milled to a 8x9 body and a max height of 6 inches. I prefer to use servos as his means of movement for the main reason of project versatility. I gave him a 7.2 Volt 3000 mah Battery. Soon Phil will not only have the capability to go hide in the dark, he will also be able to search out the brightest area to recharge his battery. He does not just stop at an object or wander around aimlessly, he plots his next move so he can hide in the best spot. Phil loves to win! 
At the top is a breakout board that contains the regulator, switch and speaker.
If you look close you can see the 2 LDR's, Sonic Ping & Servo, LED's and Switch.
Customized kits are available. For as much work or for as little work as you want.
