Make a simple quadruped robot with the 3d printed robot kit #YouMakeRobots. This quadruped robot is powered by an Arduino MEGA and 8 standard hobby servo-motors. YouMakeRobots is a set of 3d printed parts, electronics and software that work together to provide a fun, accessible and affordable robot building experience. Very similar to Lego bricks, the modular construction allows you to put together simple components to build a wide variety of robots. It is easy to get started. For less than $ 100 you get all the electronics, no soldering required. The 3d printed parts are easy to print and print without support. The code provided allows you to interactively control the robot from the command line.
