Printed a fish feeder. Hope he does more than that :wink:

He’s awesome!

That’s pretty neat, is it your own design?

@David_Selwood I saw a humanoid project called Plen2. It’s unfortunately out of my price range. This is my own version of Plen2.

@Charl_Cillie I think I prefer yours :slight_smile:

Link?

I’d like a copy too if your’e happy to make it public :slight_smile:

@David_Selwood Sure no problem. I will post the STL files in the week coming. It’s maybe more a starting point for you to create your own as I am pretty new to 3D Printing. Every part was more an experiment and opportunity to get knowledge.

@Charl_Cillie those clips are awesome!
Im looking forward to the stls; I dont have a printer but I have a feeling I may ask @jinx_OI ​ to print them at some point :slight_smile:

@Charl_Cillie ​ Very Nice, what servo’s and control board did you go with?

@David_Selwood I used some 9g RC plane servos that I had in a box at home. They are only $2.00 and does not seem to work so great for walking. :frowning: Its to be expected I guess for the price.

The controller is an Arduino Nano. I found that it can drive 16 servos using a TLC5940.

Im going to post a video of extreme wobble this guy has due to the hobby grade servos.

I shouldn’t laugh but that was kind of amusing…

@David_Selwood LOL. I guess i will not post the break dancing movies then. break :frowning: dance

Maybe not with those servos :)… unless you can get a head-spin out of him first lol…

I’ve played with the really cheap servos and found the jitter can be reduced with the cable wound thru’ a small feric core. Board layout can help but best is paying a little more for a better quality servo.
