Niles the animatronic Parrot

thingiverse

This is Niles the animatronic parrot. He is controlled by Pololu's micro Maestro (6-channel) servo board, and uses 4 micro servos to move him. Leg Top is OPTIONAL. I accidentally added it. It was intended for a MK 2 prototype but you can use it to make the parrots legs longer by hot gluing the base of Leg Top to the bottom of the Parrot and them attach the Leg Bottom to it. Skull & Jaw MUST be SCALED UP to 300% in Cura. You will need: (x 2) Legs Bottom (x 2) Reversible Hinge (x 2) Wings (x 2) Foot Base New (x 6) Foot Nail All other parts are printed once (x 1) I printed all the parts with a 10% infill and 0.15 mm layer height. ONLY the Jaw should be printed with support. You will be able to find the full, in depth tutorial for Niles on my website under the projects page, and you can also find the tutorial on my instructables page. Enjoy!
