oh wow, much smaller than i thought.

I dont think it will support the hand.

Maybe this servo will fit inside nano servo instead or micro servo

MAybe there is a way to use this micro servo in the actual "claw" part of the hand, making open and close, like the ultimate wall-e (still trying to figure that one out)

But for now it looks like these servos might be too small....DJ Sure's, what do you think?

hELLO,

Ive been thinking, and maybe you cn use the micro servos for eyes. Some sort of shutter to give the illusion wall-e is blinking, instead of turning the LED on and off you can use the micro servo to have somehting "block" a portion of the light... exactly like the ultimtae wall-e

wdyt?

Yea ultimate wall-e is pretty cool. I think I am going to use it as eyebrow like mike did. Check out this video. His Wall-e is really cooool.

Brilliant. That should be much more easier than the blinking eye idea. I see in the video how to do it, but what are you going to make the eyebrow out of? Or are you going to cut it out of the side of the eyes? Also, any idea on how one would make the hands open and close?

Thanks,

carlos

I had an idea about that. I don't have a wall-e to play with so i'm not sure if this will work, but how about since you don't want the servo showing, place it inside his body, and connect it to the had by either piano type wire, string or metal rod. wire it through the arm that way you don't have anything showing.

Hello,

Ok i found a tear down of an ultimate wall-e, the best set of pics are about the eyes, if you study them long enough you can see how to make the "shutter" within the eye work, giving wall-e the impression he is actually blinking, its actually pretty easy.

micro servos, a couple of servo gears (few sizes) and a couple of pieces of cardboard should do it....

pics 100-2854 to 100-2857 really show how the servo would make the shutters(2 black pieces of plastic) work with a few gear attachments

Heres the link

so awesome...

Carlos, I'll try to post a video a little later today so you can see how the neck and eye assemblies operate on my Big WALL-E..

I was able to re-use the gears already inside the neck to maintain the eye tilting. However, since the mechanism was being driven by a motor, I had to add a Servo Stretcher to extend the range of motion of the micro servo closer to 180 degrees.

I re-used as much of the original design as I could with varying levels of modification. It took a good deal of forethought, time and patience to remove only what was absolutely necessary from the shell to get all the parts to fit in just right. For the neck assembly, I used the Tamiya Ladder-Chain & Sprocket Set. I'm pretty sure the only other parts I used were spare computer parts I had lying around...

Wow it looks like ultimate wall-e using only one motor to control raise arm, rotate and open gripper. Anywhere still sell ultimate wall-e cheap?

I don't get how's that working. Wish I can find a picture take apart the gripper.

I am going to cut the eyebrows piece out and do something like Mike did.
