Subject: [alt-beam] Re: Hexapod Beam Bots?


You should be able to use a 3 motor walker controler to run a 3 motor
Hexapod. You could use it to run an 8 motor hexapod as well. It's just a
matter of how simple you want the controller to be.

connector with a 5V regulator. I like it because it doesn't take up any
space on my breadboard and is neat and nifty. I'd like a similar connector
regulated to 3V - thankyou Sathe - I'll give it a go.

Cheers,

Thomas
