                                         Robot 2 • Funky Chicken Techno-Walker

            Putting It All Together









































            You now have a body with walking legs and a head. It’s time to finish your creation. Connect the
            body and legs sub-assembly to the head sub-assembly as shown, and you’re done!









                        Bricks & Chips…
                        Testing Your Walker

                        Before you run the walking motor to make this robot walk, make sure
                        you know which direction the motor should turn to make the walker
                        walk forward. You can test this with the hand crank at the back of the
                        model. If you get the wrong direction for the motor, you’ll see the
                        model trying to walk backward.
