Summary

The hexapod I uploaded is a bit of a failed prototype. I intended to make a improved version but never got around to it.
some of the problems are: underpowered servos, uncommon servo type, to low gear ratio on the servos, bad cable management, to many different size nuts and bolts, not enough room for the electronics and battery
so unless you know what your doing i would recommend to build a different design on thingiverse

[I don't have any fully working code to go with this, i just made the physical parts!]

this hexapod is fully 3D printable without support

you need a 300 x 300 mm printbed to print the larger parts

the mechanical parts are fully done, but im still working on the electronics and code so if you want those stand by!

i based this designed around the TGY-RM-91 Robotic servos and control them with Adafruit 16-Channel Servo Driver

other things you need are 13mm barings, various nuts and bolts

[update 26-09-2019] i added a extra part to make it compatible with most standard servos
i also changed the coxa part 2 to make room for it. if you have already printed it out you can just saw off the little collar on the bottom

[update 08-07-2019] here is a link to my google drive with a prototype code. it is still a work in progress but it has most of the ground work to make it move

[update 30-01-2019] the top part of coxa_part_2.stl was to weak and broke on two of my legs, i updated it with a stronger one.
