9g micro servo hexapod

thingiverse

So I had some spare cheap servos and arduino lying around and decided to build a cheap hexapod. Pieces are meant to be easy to print and fit precisely to TowerPro SG90 or SG92 micro servos. Desing was inspired and partly copied from funghy's hexapod https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:56698 Idea and code to precisely control 18 servos with arduino was taken from http://www.lamja.com/?p=504 I also modified Arvid's code to work on arduino leonardo with Atmega32u4 chip. You can get 20 servos for 30$ from aliexpress. Arduino nano is 4$, step-down converter for a battery is few bucks, ESP8266 wifi module for arduino is few more bucks so total bill is less than 50$ excluding battery. Edit: added top and bottom plates. Those are pretty much scaled versions of funghy's hexapod but I'll make another ones to precisely fit battery, arduino and other stuff.
