The following instructions detail how to build a Servocore walker. A Servocore walker differs from a regular walker by utilizing the internal electronics in unmodified servos, which give position feedback from the motor in the servo. This position feedback allows for very long stride lengths without the use of mechanical stops or springs.
Holiday Specials!

Yes, we're approaching the time of the year when it's the darkest and all you want to do is sip tea and huddle around the ... soldering iron!
The first of our specials is the "KHSB1 - Learn Robotics Book Special". It includes a copy of our popular "Junkbots, Bugbots, and Bots on Wheels", plus your choice of a:
for $41.95USD / $50.95CAD
The next special we have is our HKSB2 - Goldbot package, consisting of our new improved versions of the K SS SolarSpeeder and K PP Photopopper! These are now made with a gold and black design using improved Millerengine technology, which makes them both about twice as fast as before!
Lastly, we're pleased to be finally offering the K HM - Herbie the Mousebot kit. It's been through several stages of development and refinement, but it's now ready for pre-ordering (that means they'll be ready to ship November 24th). They're available in 4 colors, so we're offering volume pricing discounts so you can have a full set of these dynamic, quick, easy-to-build robot kits.

Wheee! They're here - the new RW2!
We've just got in our newly-machined RW2 hubs & tires - and they're better! Instead of the old 1/8" axle hole that didn't quite fit the GM11a-14a series correctly (they were too loose), these new ones fit perfectly with their 3mm hole!
