Zenta » MorpHex, finalizing the upper section. Kåre writes -

When I posted the MorpHex part II video I cheated a little to make the upper sphere sections to operate as intended. The “cheat” was to use some kitchen rubber bands. As you can see from the pictures below the 5990 servo push the upper section out/upward. The rubber-band work like a spring and simply make the sphere section move inward.

Check out all his bots, they’re great!
