The assembled hexapod, top view.
Step 8: Final touches.
Use the Maestro Control Center to find the neutral positions (where the legs are as symmetrically arranged as
possible) as well as their safe minimums and maximums. Set the neutral positions as the “Go to” values for each
servo, and set Min and Max values so that your hexapod will never destroy itself. Adjust the angles of the wires
so that all six feet touch the ground in the neutral position, probably by bending the front and back legs to more
than 90°.
