How to Make a Remote Controlled Spider Robot!!

In this video I show you how to make a remote controlled spider robot.

Clarification... The introduction of the video is stop motion animation, it was only done to visually enrich the content and to exemplify how the idea was born without using a real spider. I do not intend that you believe that the final result of the product is the same.
Also keep in mind that remote control does not always mean that it is Radio Control, since you can control something remotely even when using a physical connection.

Keep in mind:

The content shown in this video is experimental, everything was done during the recording, if you plan to recreate what is shown here, be careful when using the tools and keep in mind that you must have basic knowledge of electronics and basic tools.

Read the following recommendations if you plan to recreate it.

-Don't make the same size shown here, in spite of having included other 2 motors, a 9-volt battery was used at the end to move and the motors were burned after a while of operation, the problem is solved if it does smaller maybe half or less.

- Get a battery holder for 4 units, it's better and cheaper than doing it manually.

-The engines have to be all similar.

Hello, the introduction of the video is a stop motion, I like art and animation, that's why I did it, I do not want to imply that this is the final result, it's just the introduction of this, (stop motion 0:0, construction 0:22, end result 12:52) only if you plan to recreate what is shown in the video, read the full description to see the recommendations, otherwise, enjoy!

This is a fantastic project but the dislike numbers and the comments taught me a valuable lesson in management about "setting expectations"

What we thought was in Area 51 0:00
What was actually there 13:00

This is weird for me to admit, but building a robotic spider is actually a childhood dream of mine.

I think there's a way you could make the legs move individually, using the 2 motors facing sideways. Use some sort of curved track and the motor crawls through the track making the legs apparently move.

I don't think this guy knows what remote control means

[ellencochrane]

Good god I can’t believe how critical some people are this was a fun little project that showed skill and artistry a lot of thought went into this and the fact that he shared it is a blessing I loved it xx

The remote control part aside, the actual spider sculpture is pretty cool looking tbh

Dominada por mi como la persona más creativa del mundo👌

To move the arms independently we can use the mechanism used in wipers of cars and the stand fans. The only difference is we have to make the 2 sets arms separately.

When you realize that the remote controller has an antenna even when it is wired...

What kind of nonsense is not a robot but just an iron spider

[MRFILMSHORTS]

Iron Spider : (vibrating and making sound) "Buuzzzz... Buzzzz....

Spiderman : "Oh, Come on... Are You Kidding me??? Just Shake It Off...!!"

This Guy : " . . . . . . "
(Suddenly Freeze, and turn the remote Off...)

I stopped walking to college... Now i vibrate to college 😎

[Grim_RAPR]

Not... exactly what I was expecting.. I was hoping something more like the spider from the beginning

[sunnyheroful]

really nice invention and you put your amazing efforts but kids need just 2 secs to destroy this hehehe

[Wildicon]

This is an amazing work of art and functionality!

Acho que dá pra fazer as pernas andarem. Um pequeno motor, na traseira, e ligado ao motor, penos pistões, posicionada para impulsos na horizontal. As pernas, são ligadas, com molas, perto do abdômen ou numa articulação, mais próximo do abdômen. E fio de arame, para como fosse tendões, ligado no pistão e nas pernas. Parece que nessa idéia, tem que ter um pistão para as pernas da direita e outra engrenagem, para as pernas da esquerda, ou um pistão, para cada perna.

I'm surprised people didn't now that the beginning is stop motion read the description also cool video I hate it when people misunderstand stuff

Don't let them get you down I really liked it!
