Bionic Spider with ESP8266: A Father-Son Adventure

Just got this robotic spider and assembled it with my son. The code is Arduino-based and open-source, allowing you to program your own procedures and create custom designs.
I have uploaded my new procedures for this bot you can download it here.

Happy to see our spider kit plays so cool.

That's a cool lego build 😉

[@user-wf5nb4jd1y]

Thanks for the tip on the movement speed. I'm building mine, but I don't have a 18650, and I'm too cheap to buy one, so I'm going to try putting in 2 AA batteries setup to output 3.3v and holding it together with a rubber band lol.

you can open an old laptop battery.

Hmm, yeah, where I live I am getting the 18650 battery for almost around $50 😢. So I have to do something else. So did you put the 2AA batteries that are rechargeable? Or just normal ones? Thanks

[@user-wf5nb4jd1y]

@@Projecttejtech I found out the robot handles the charging of the batteries in its usb plug, so I bought a pack of 2 off Amazon for like $10.

looks funny

So, anyone managed to get this thing to jump or hop? I tried to a few days ago and couldn't get it to work. I can make it plop on the ground, but it doesn't like when I set the ms to 0 or 1, and I don't think anything slower will work lol
