Hello! Your robot is

Hello!

 

Your robot is incredible!

 

I have a question for you: is it possible to have the reference for the servo you are using? They seems to be great!

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Thanks :3 ehh… it’s just

Thanks :3

ehh… it’s just standard micro servos…

i get all my micro-servos here:

did that help? :smiley:

It’s perfect! thank you very

It’s perfect! thank you very much for the help!

 

I’ve got some problem using old servo that i’ve got , so if the one you’ve got work i’m gonna try them :wink:

but i must also tell you

but i must also tell you that they tend to be a little tricky with numbers!

if you tell it to go to 150 it goes to the middle(normal)

but i once forgot the 0 and wrote 15 and then it tryed to kill itself! :confused: (minimum is 75)

but these servos sometimes have lower minimums, i got one wit a minimum of 57, but you should just carefully try

otherwise they are strong, cheap, blue and good for many uses

Name Suggestion

I was watching it and I came up with this name…drum role please…

And the idea is…

FULL RANGE OF MOTION!!!

Thankyou! No really, thankyou!LOL!

I’ve just received my servo

I’ve just received my servo they are very tiny :slight_smile:

 

This is the first time i use a picaxe 28x1 and i already have a problem!

I try to move to servos and it don’t work…

 

Here is my source code

servo 2,75

servopos 2,75

pause 2000

servopos 2,150

pause 2000

servopos 2,225

pause 2000

 

servo 4,75

servopos 4,75

pause 2000

servopos 4,150

pause 2000

servopos 4,225

pause 2000

 

 

If i execute this the first servo move and after that the second servo only goes on the start position and stop…

 

I’ve tried another code, this one:

servo 4,75

servopos 4,75

pause 2000

servopos 4,150

pause 2000

servopos 4,225

pause 2000

 

servo 2,75

servopos 2,75

pause 2000

servopos 2,150

pause 2000

servopos 2,225

pause 2000

 

In this case both servos are working except that when it switch to servo 4 to servo 2, the servo 4 goes back to 75…

 

I only use one power source, if someone can help me, this thing drive me crazy…

 

Best regards.

 

 

 

i have never used two power

i have never used two power supplies, so nothing is wrong there!

why do you use servoPOS (you m ust have misunderstod something!!)

(i never EVER add “pos”)

you should have made another forum topic or PM’ed me… but since you have posted your question i guess i could help you now! :slight_smile:

to explain how a servo works with a picaxe i will make this line:

 

servo X, Y

where “X” is the servo port(0 to 7 on a picaxe 28x1)

and “Y” is a number from 75 to 225

that is THE explanition for using a servo with picaxe 28x1!!!

here is the code you tryed to make, but fixed and looped by me:

START

main:

pause 2000

servo 2, 75

pause 2000

servo 2, 150

pause 2000

servo 2, 225

pause 2000

servo 4, 75

pause 2000

servo 4, 150

pause 2000

servo 4, 225

goto main

END

if you are to try this code only take what you see BETWEEN “start” and “end” (only from “main” to “goto main”)

now you should be good to go! :slight_smile:

and i hope i helped you :smiley:

Fantastic robot!!

I’m planning a similar project, also using micro servos (hxt900), and I must say your robot is a great inspiration. One of the best of it’s kind I’ve seen, and I’ve been spending a lot of hour on the web looking for similar robots. You’ve managed to make it walk very nicely (smooth and fast) with just 2 servos per leg. Thumbs up!!

If you could post the code I’d very much like to study the walking routines. Though I never touched picaxe I should be able to make something of it…

And another question: How much does it weigh? Just curious as to how much these servos can pull…

Oops…

Sorry about the weight question. It clearly says 361 grams in the description.

Hope I manage to keep mine as light as yours :slight_smile:

Great job!!

Servo Brackets
How are the servos held in? Glue? Could you post any more images of the legs they look great, i was just looking to see how you had mounted them.

nice
looks completely bad ass my next project is going to be a walker, just ordered some micro servos. your leg design has given me a great deal of inspiration. im thinking of making mine out of polymorph and controling it with a RBBB aruino. i want it to look like an insect or crab type thing with an exosecelaton and point bits :stuck_out_tongue:

Nice walking box
Very unique and impressive design. Oh how I miss the machine shop.

can you please post the code!

can you please post the code!


Awesome this little guy. Looks so simple and is doing such nice moves.

Awesome very agile! How did

Awesome very agile! How did you connect the leg joints?
