The Mechanics
The robot is made from ultra-tough high-quality aluminum Servo Erector Set brackets.

Controlling the Robot
The combo kit comes with the SSC-32, Bot Board II, and BASIC Atom Pro 28. By offloading the servo pulse generation and sequence movement timing to the SSC-32 the BASIC Atom has plenty of power to do some really cool things. The Phoenix program allows the robot to walk with variable speed, in any direction (translation), or turn in place (rotation), or any combination of the two. The leg lift and ride height is adjustable as well as the gait walking speed. You can rotate the body in every axis. There are preset walking modes and gaits to choose from. All of these are accessible from the controller. We recommend the wireless PS2 controller (RC-01) to get the robot up and running quickly. The Phoenix code also supports a serial control mode for controlling the robot via a serial connection. The Phoenix code was written by Jeroen Janssen (Xan on the forum). Thanks, Jeroen!

The programming is already done for this robot. You no longer have to be a computer scientist to play with this level of robotics. The control options are: PS2 remote control, Xbee / DIY RC stick radio control, and TTL serial control.

Powering Options
The robot is compatible with the following batteries and chargers.
Chargers
NiCad & Ni-MH Universal Smart Charger (USC-02)
Batteries
6.0 Volt Ni-MH 2800mAh Battery Pack (BAT-05)

Important!
To keep costs down we are not providing printed Assembly Guides. They are provided online, so you will need to print them when you order the kits. By providing the Assembly Guides online we can provide more detailed and up to date information than the old hardcopy method allowed.
