Robot 10 • Imperial Hound

The Head
Inventing…

Head Step: Complete Customizing the Imperial Hound
Because the head and the front legs of the
Imperial Hound are not attached to the
Micro Scout, these are the two sub-assem-
blies that are the easiest to customize. You
can easily turn the Imperial Hound into a
bird, a dragon, or some other animal by
building a new head for your robot.

Head Step: 1

Here is what the head sub-assembly
should look like when it is complete.

Head Step: 2 Head Step: 3

Place the nose-like piece as shown.
To secure it in place, slide the #2
axle through the hole in the piece’s
side into the perpendicular axle
joiner you added in the last step,
as shown.
