Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Software and calibration were good. Installation and connecting the ardiuno was easy. The wifi app is a must if you live in an area with lots of wifi access points.

It comes with 18 servos, an arduino with servo controller and all the pieces and everything cleanly cut. The box includes everything you need to assemble and run the hexapod except for batteries and a charger for the lithium ion batteries.

The design of the kit is very forgiving. No one notices it is not exactly 90 degree perfect. All in all, it's a well-engineered kit.

Cons

Hours of calibrating makes it completely impractical. After hours of fighting with the software downloads, finally gave up and trashed.

Price

In retrospect i might not have invested in realizing the cost after ordering this kit

Packaging/appearance

There are allot of small screws in the kit

Competitiveness

Also do not order the nitecore nl1475sr batteries for this project they do not have the necessary current capacity

I ordered the recommended nitecore nl14500a 650 mah batteries direct from nitecore and these work well

The replacement arrived and the wifi signal came up immediately ones i connected the new esp8266 esp01 to the board
