It would be so lovely to be able to buy the supplies for the dragon in a store, but the prices are astronomical ($25 for a servo which costs $4 online) and I need a LOT of things, so I have placed several orders for various parts. Today the first order finally arrived from DFRobot, including:
Now I just have to wait for the other things I ordered from Amazon, Little Bird Electronics, Ebay and DealExtreme to arrive.
- two joysticks and related hardware
- one rotation sensor (I already have plans which will need a second one)
- one motion sensor
- one pan-tilt kit with two servos which I will use to make the neck joint
- lots of sensor cables because I forgot to read the smallprint which said that each item was 10 cables, so I got 20 instead of the 2 I expected.
