Summary

Hi guys!

Here is a small projets i've been working on a few month ago. It's a small frame you can print as a first jump into robotics :)

Makes a really cool toy to learn programming and arduino (also to spy your neighbours ;) )

Hope you like it!
Comment and share if so!

EDITS:

°1: added new leg design (patte v2) which is lighter, thinner and prints faster ;)
Consider using it instead of the old one.

Instructions

Parts list:

I used 18 9gr servos for the legs, and one for the ultrasonic module in the front :) (19 total, if ordering from HK, consider buying one or two more in case some are defeted)

I used those which are great for the price:
