Diego’s Final Design

by on Aug.08, 2009, under Mechanical

I gave Diego a color rehaul. It is now totally clad in matte black. It looks really sleek.

    Hi

    I really like what you have done. I am also planning to build a biped. I am using arduino. I wanted to ask you whether you are facing any problems with the servos, is the torque enough.

    Hi Ashok,

    Thanks for the kind words. Yes, you are right, I definitely don’t have enough torque with the HS645 servos (7.7 kg.cm). Right now I’m upgrading to stronger ones. On the other hand I’m trying to be on a budget. Because of this I started using Towardpro MG996 servos. So far they are performing very well. I will write more about this once I finished testing them.

    Cheers.
