UG70158 - Hexapod Explorer

Spring-driven six-legged walker with variable speed control.

388 parts8 h buildMetal springWalks 3 metresSpeed dialMedium

The Hexapod Explorer is a six-legged walking model driven by a strong metal spring. It walks up to 3 metres on its own legs without a supporting or auxiliary wheel, and because it carries its own weight on the legs it handles slightly rough terrain and can step over obstacles of one to two centimetres. The spring is wound with a ratchet key on the belly. A dial on the head gives variable speed control, and the speed can be changed at any time, including mid-run. The model is set in motion by a go switch at the rear, and the gait resembles that of an insect or a crab.

The foot pads are fitted with rubber bands for better traction on the surface. The model is built from pre-laser-cut plywood parts and assembles without glue or special tools, and it needs neither batteries nor electronics. With 388 parts and around eight hours of assembly the part count is high in relation to the Medium rating, which makes the article an option for builders who want scope without an advanced level. Step-by-step instructions in eleven languages are included and spare parts can be ordered free of charge. The package measures 37.8 x 17 x 2.8 cm and weighs 670 grams, with six units per carton.
