CheungsLegoCreation Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 Hi all, It's me again with yet another iteration of my new biped (generation 6, that's why it's called Bot 6). This time the bot is built using 2 separate hubs communicated via the hub to hub block. It is a challenge to create a set of legs that can drive under high load and that's why this guy moves slower than Bot 5 (which uses only a single hub). Shock absorbers are also added to each leg and a leg separator (a 7 unit beam) has been inserted to prevent the feet from rubbing against each other. Hopefully I will be able to come up with a better movement mechanism in the next iteration. Enjoy the video and happy building! /cheung Quote
Jim Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 This is so cool. I really like what you are doing with your iterations. I am always aiming for the best version, which results in me never finishing anything. But I am planning to be doing more Mindstorms projects in the near future. So definitely keep 'm coming. I'm following with great interest. Quote

It may be possible to use those smaller motors (those that look like a cube) to make the bot smaller but I am not too eager to spend $$$ on them given those motors are likely to have less torque then the current motors. /cheung Quote
