Description Max The Megapod is a six legged walking robot that's 3d printed. It's open source, Arduino based, Bluetooth controlled, Scratch programmable for education.
We launched our original Vorpal the Hexapod open source, 3D-printed robot project almost exactly a year ago and it was a huge success. Over 1, people worldwide have built that project so far, including hundreds built by schools worldwide.
But we wanted to go bigger, and that's why we designed Max the Megapod. Max is head-turning big. Nearly two feet in diameter when standing, three when sitting sprawled out on the floor.
Origins of the Project and Acknowledgements Thanks to Gaige Moore who helped develop the original prototypes for the smaller Vorpal the Hexapod as a high school project and helped build and test prototypes of Max.
The Cap was split into four parts. An efficient support was included in the model. The largest part was the Base, here are the three main "bowl" parts, a fourth part goes on the bottom to tie it all together. The main changes were: Real bearings had to be used on all Servos mounts. The original hexapod only weighs about a pound so we could get away with little plastic nubs, but that won't work on the 9 pound Max--way too much friction. The problems of doubling again to the next size almost four feet in diameter when standing and weighing an estimated 50 pounds are even harder to solve, and will cost at least an estimated ten thousand dollars in development expenses to perfect.
