Dec 11, 2012 · There is a wide variety of hexapod kits to choose from. And sure this can make it hard to choose the right one. The AH3r hex is a very strong robot. Maybe even the more robust model of the lot. The round body models AH, BH, CH are a great platform for adding sensors due to the symmetrical shape and unused space.
ArcBotics’ Hexy the Hexapod is a fully articulated hexapod robot kit. Hexy has six legs, 19 servo motors and is powered by Arduino, while maintaining a price 4-10x less expensive than current hexapod robots.
This is a programmable hexapod robot kit, which can twists body and moves like a living creature. Whether you want to experience the joy of robots or learn to program, this is a good choice. We provide free technical support to help you with any questions and problems. Tutorial and Code: Comes with detailed tutorial and complete code.
Hexy the Hexapod is a fully articulated hexapod robot kit that gives you a platform to explore advanced robotics, kinematics, and programming. Hexy makes complex robotics less costly, easier to learn with the tutorials and documentation, while being radically more fun (and cute!).
The first body kit I've made of 6 mm ply wood, here you see the second version made of 4 mm ply wood, which I've found out is strong and stiff enough. Different to the original kit I was mounting the servo horn on top, resp. through the material (you can see this also with the femur).
