Hi,
I knew ez-robot finding DJ's video on his DIY Wall-e
I'm a big fan of radio-controlled scale model (airplane, glider, boat, car, drone). I also saw the video on the AR.Drone.
So I decided there was more than a year of ordered Roli, to learn ez platform. I received it two weeks ago, I learned with as planned; o)
My goal is to make a flying drone, but to learn before with ground drone. But secretly, I also wanted to do my proprewall-e. But could not find a wall-e in France (at a reasonable price at least).
And today I won an auction on ebay uk for a 10" wall-e eek

Now that is a small servo! They are only about 4 cm long by 1 cm x about .5 ch. I wonder how fast or strong they are?
about 15 g / cm. and only 60 degrees movement.

I received my wall-e, it is beautiful
Indeed, it will not be easy to put servos in the arms
There are a few great project showcase posts which detail the conversion of a Wall-E. Getting servos in isn't impossible
The arms aren't heavy and if you don't plan to have them pick anything up then micro servos will work and fit easier.
Looking forward to following your build progress!
Hi,
thanks. I think I have allready read all posts
I'm not worry about servos for arms and head, but for the gripper
Put the servo in the wall-e body and use wire to pull the gripper closed with a spring return, or stiff wire to open/close them?
You will not be able to hide a motor out of sight in the hand, that's for sure.
