The Roach
One of the first ‘robots’ I built was a Beetle bug based on the intractable found here. http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Build-a-Robot---The-BeetleBot/ It’s a great beginner project with no logic or programming, just some switches and some motors. I think the design is absolutely brilliant, and I’m very pleased with my adaptation. On the table you can also see the part from an old mouse I used for the shell Dead bug
(Scared the shit out of my wife…)
