A-Pod Hexapod Robot Kit (Hardware Only)

The Lynxmotion A-Pod Hexapod Robot Kit (Hardware Only) is insect inspired. The angled legs provides additional range of movement. The three DOF (degree of freedom) leg design means the robot can walk in any direction. The robot has been designed to use 18 HS-645 servos for the legs and an additional 7 servos for the head and tail. It's truly amazing to see in action.
