Randofo-Arduino and Futaba 3003 Version

This is Randofo. A very cool and simple robot created by Randy Sarafan (His nick is Randofo in Instructables)

You can find the original version here:

The original project uses Standar Servos from Radioshack. I created my own version of the body to use futaba 3003 motors or similar and Arduino UNO or similar boards

I also created a hardware control using Icestudio and the Icezum Alhambra, an open source FPGA board.

Print Settings

Printer:

Prusa i3 bq Hephestos

Rafts:

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

Notes:

The legs and gears are easy to print but you'll probably need supports.

The body due to his form, however, will need more supports and time. If you are using Cura I recommend to change the Line Support distance to 3.6667 for a better support removement.

Post-Printing

Assembly

I reccomend to follow the original instructions of instructables:

The only difference is the electronic part. In this version you directly have the PCB holes for Arduino UNO or similar.

Programming

• In the case of an Arduino, you can use the original Arduino code. It's simple but it works!
• In the case that you are using an Icezum Alhambra FPGA board you have the hardware in the format of an Icestudio file. You can easily change the values of the roms that controls the servomotor movements using the programoscillator_rom_generator.py
