HexCrawler Full Kit

We recommend reading then entire HexCrawler resource page thoroughly prior to purchasing the HexCrawler. The HexCrawler manual does not contain specific experiments like the Stamps in Class curriculum (i.e. What's a Microcontroller?, Robotics) since it wasn't designed as an educational kit. However, it may be very appropriate for mechanical engineering and programming courses. The HexCrawler Kit is a walking platform which can be expanded by the customer. The Parallax robotics team is currently developing new source code and updating the manual for the HexCrawler, so visit the web site for updates.

The Hexcrawler robot is built on a high-quality aluminum chassis that provides a sleek platform for the 12 servo motors and control system. The full kit allows you to get started with a very complete kit including the BS2-IC, Board of Education, 12 servos, and 2 Mini SSC's allowing you to customize your robot with additional accessories. Mounting holes and slots may be used to add custom robotics equipment.

The Hexcrawler circuits are built on the Board of Education. With additional accessories in our Robot Component Shop and Accessories pages, the Hexcrawler robot may be programmed to perform all sorts of neat movements. The detailed manual gets you started with a number of complete programs. Once you have mastered the supplied code, you can easily customize it using your own programming creativity. We recommend checking out the manual and source code below so you can understand the level of complexity involved with the assembly and programming of this kit. The kit is not complete, since you are required to supply hand tools, a 6 cell battery pack, mounting hardware for the Mini SSC and a 9V battery (not included).
