This is the second in a series of designs that you can build. All of my projects are open source, but most people don’t actually build things like the AT-AT you can ride on. So I’m doing a series of smaller more accessible projects. The first one was mini robot dog which you can find in my channel, and now it’s time for a Hexpod – which is six legs. Last time I used an Arduino Uno, but a lot of people asked for a remote controlled version, so this time I’m using ESP32s. I’m using standard R/C style servos again which are easily available.
