9. Tap Installation Position and all the servos will rotate to 90 degrees.
Note: The purpose of adjusting the angle of the servos is to ensure that there will not be too much deviation
after assembly to avoid malfunction. Therefore, this step is very important.
Step 5 Assembly of Legs to Body
Please keep power ON and all the servo cables connecting to the board during assembly.
We need to ensure servos remain at 90 degrees when assembling. (Servo cables are not shown in the following
instructions.)
1. Assemble the servos to the acrylic parts with black screws in servo packages.
Assemble them as close to 90 degrees as possible. Angles at 70 – 110 degrees are acceptable.
