My dad and I would like to build a diy octopod using your EZ-B v4/2 controller and 16 servos to mimic a daddy-long legs spider (Pholcus phalangioides), with the front legs acting as sensing legs. With 2 degrees of freedom per leg, we are thinking of using thin fibreglass rods for the legs connected to the servos on the body. A joystick remote, streaming video, and someday integrating LiDAR would be the great. Any hardware advice would be welcome.
