Building the Mantis Walker Robot body

Capture the servo horn between the leg pieces using two machine screws.

Join the body parts together using 2 screws. The front part of the body goes underneath the
back part at the join. The angle of the back should be 45 degrees with the space for both
servos pointing in the same direction. Next, join the 9v battery holder to the body using 2
screws.

Each servo comes with 3 screws. The two longer screws are used to connect the servo to
the body. Both servos face forward. The servo cable is fed through to the back of the
Mantis robot.

The ultrasonic sensor is inserted into the holder with the connectors facing upward.
The two legs can be joined to the body using the single short screw that came with each
servo.
Building the Electronics
The walker uses an Arduino Nano or similar to control the robot.

Pin 10: Back leg servo control

Pin 3: Front leg Servo control
Pin A3 (D17): Ultrasonic Trigger
Pin A4 (D18): Ultrasonic Echo
