It's just a concept right now but I wanted others to see that the scale doesnt quite match. Right now its just stacked on there and neck is a little too long.

@GLICKCLICK easy way to use less ports,is a design i used for a very long time,i make my own servo ,using the pots and motors,can be done with any type of motor you get a very low cost servo on ebay FUTABA S3003 and remove the motor and pot and add your own,most robot builders use this one because easy to hack andonly one with schematic online if need a hight current motor,more then 1 amp easy add a second h-bridge chip or h-bridge circuit this way only 1 digital line is used

@ robotmaker, Oh yeah I forgot about that. I was going to use that method for a toy dog with 12 motors but there wasnt room to fit all those boards. The Omni has tons of room but i could use micro servos and fit them right in the head. The servos have almost no load. hmmm maybe just the eyes and eyelids have no load. the others could if going from max one direction to the opposite as when shaking your head "no" and the jaw is under spring tension keeping his mouth shut. Thanks for reminding me!

UPDATE Tried it on the neck left/right and it worked fine. Even used EZ for power since they are about the same size. Later I will change that. Now I got to wait for the other servos to come in from china. I dont want to pull apart my good servos.

Samantha found this and I thought I'd share it because its rare that they show on ebay and when they do it costs more.
