Fastest walking speed?

[terrichong]

May I know what is the fastest walking speed for Hexa? In the documentation, it gives the speed range of 0.1 to 1.2 cm/s. I tried 1.2 and it seems a little slow compared to the youtube video where it can finished 6.1m distance in 18.35s.

Hi.

If you raise the speed of function ‘Walk’, you can make HEXA move faster.

But to protect the steering engine, we suggest the best range of the speed as 0.1 ~ 1.2. It’s good for your HEXA’s steering engines and makes them work well longer.

Regards.

Thanks for the info.
I just did some experiment with different speed using function ‘Walk’. When i use duration of 45 in the function, the robot walks with two of the legs “thumping”. So maybe i will keep it slow for now, i don’t want to destroy it yet. Just wish it can walk faster
