batteries or from the controller cable?

how long does it run?

A cool wireless hack would be making it bluetooth controlled…

This hexapod has 2-DOF per leg – the “dancing” robot had 3-DOF. The extra degree of freedom allows much more complicated (and lifelike) motion.

This 2-DOF robot therefore is easier to get started with, and of course cheaper.

Wonder if he’s going to put wireless controller as an upgrade, maybe clock at 16Mhz?
