Animatronic Halloween Crow

This is a remixed crow animatronic.

Update 10-17-2024: Uploaded code for arduino nano controller Uploaded improved beak, fixed centering, moved jaw wire hole to make it much easier to use Uploaded new body with cutouts for connecting feet

Pictures will be added after completion.

Changes

Head: Made hollow Precut holes for 5 mm leds Precut wire hole Split into lower beak, base, and top sections Added servo that can open and close beak

Body: Made hollow Precut servo hole and wire channel Opened up, and added holes for magnets

Feet: Added pins. A dremel will be needed to make holes in the body. This does make it much easier to glue in place right now. I may update the body in the future.

Tail: Made hollow Added holes for magnets Added hole for power

Servo holes are made to fit 24x12 mm servos

Assembly Insert servo into bottom of head. Insert lower beak into posts, hold in place with 2mm rod Run music wire or similar through holes in jaw, connect to servo arm Wire leds for head Insert head base + beak assembly into head. Squeeze the sides of the jaw, it should pop through all the way Screw/glue base and head together Note You may need to remove additional material from the bottom of the opening in the head for smooth movement

Install servo into top of body, connect servo arm, glue or screw everything together as needed.

Future: I plan on adding pins to the legs and body to make assembly easier. Until that happens follow danman's instructions in the original.
