Microhexapod

This is the new bot I'm building.

The mechanics are ready.

Minihexapod2 was small, but this hexapod is very , very small !

Just look at the pictures.

Some detailed information.

The legs are made of six bolts ( M3*50mm / ± 0,12*2 inch).

They are bend, if you do this slowly they won't break.

The joints are made of nuts, soldered to the chassis. This chassis is made of a piece printed circuit board, I've used double sided, but that isn't needed.

The overall dimensions: 70 by 80 mm ! ( ± 2,8 by 3,1 inch). That's included the legs !

I think I'm gonna give power by two Goldcaps of 10 F.

The electronics will consist out of two IC ( thanks Wilf, who gave me some advise) and a handfull of other components. The schematics looks like the one I've used in minihexapod2. It's isn't build yet, but I'm sure it will work.

The H-bridges will be made from BAL 6686 ( parts from old servos)

 

What can I say more ?

 

It is small.......... very small !
