Jd'S Eyes

Hey there,

I've started printing off JD today and need to place an order for the electronics. I'm guessing the eyes are straight 5mm LEDs, but do I need to order a separate controller of some sort for them or do I put a normal standalone arduino etc in the head and send it commands?

Cheers,

Jay

Ps are there any things that I need other than the obvious ones like servos, v4 controller, camera, battery and charger ?

@jayceekeys - I can't wait for my orders to arrive also; unfortunately I did not order a JD or a six (should have, hind sight is always 20/20), I've got a mixed batch of parts and a Roli. It will be fun when everyone gets their orders and the forum gets going into overdrive with everyone's project updates.

@Steve1DH - I think the forum is going to literally explode when they start getting delivered ! I ordered just the electronics to print/build a JD at first, but then decided to add a Rolli afterwards - just so JD didn't get lonely!

@jayceekeys: Same for me. Ordered JD first, than I calculated a bit and saw what a great deal Roli was. And since Six is JD Sures favorite and I also had written my academic degree in the past about hexapods, I decided to get the whole family:)
