Animatronic single servo four wing mechanism

Close up view of the four wing single servo mechanism. This small mechanism was originally made for a Asuna Sword cosplay where the wings appear to float over the back and fold back as they raise up. There is a full tutorial here-

Thanks very much- glad you like it! Hopefully I'll have more work to share soon.

Well done.

This is HEAVY duty!! How much are you planning to lift with that mech? Wow!

Neat linkage design.

Thanks! I have another single servo mechanism in the works to move some big wings. :)

cool , hope can see the finished result.

This is pretty much it for me- I just build the mechanics!

Hi, I’m trying to make an animated “good guy doll” I’ve watched your diy series, seen one done before, and I have somewhat of a starting list: spark core, app controller, 4 double A, at least 3 servo motors, and a sound board.
How can I receive some sense of guidance from your expertise?

Hi and sorry for the late reply! I don't know what a "good guy doll" is but the first step is probably to make a plan of what it is exactly you want it to do and work backwards from there.
