The Lynxmotion A-Pod Hexapod Robot Kit (Hardware Only) is insect inspired. The angled legs provides additional range of movement. The three DOF (degree of freedom) leg design means the robot can walk in any direction. The robot has been designed to use 18 HS-645 servos for the legs and an additional 7 servos for the head and tail. It's truly amazing to see in action.

Great product.

The kit is very well organized and the overall assembly is divided into part groups. Everything needed to assemble a group comes in a separate bag that includes a packaging list with part names and pictures. The individual parts are sorted by type and packed in small bags. The online assembly guide is easy to follow, although I recommend reading it from the top to the bottom line before putting any parts together. The build and material quality of all parts is very good and guarantees a hassle-free build experience. To complete the A-Pod takes some time, but it was allways fun and I learned a lot. Lynxmotion robot kits have a good reputation and after building the A-Pod I can say that this is well deserved.
