Stanley - quadruped robot - the high RPM robot dog!

Thanks to the low reduction ratios, parallel mechanism and great performance of capstan drives and BLDC servos Stanley is able to move it’s legs extremely fast and with very high accelerations.
Stanley is a BLDC driven capstan based quadruped robot. We use FDM 3D printing and 2D milling in FR4 to make it. Drivers used are mjbots moteus r4.5, the main computer is a Rpi4. The motors are 90KV 8308's.

Someone needs to use this as a sample for a Heavy Metal Song lol

[@grayboticstv6776]

Well done! Love it.

[@armadica10]

Man, that thing has alot of power, those must be some pretty powerful motors running it.

[@KiberBobro]

Ну там вроде по два бесколлекторных мотора размером с руку на каждую лапу.

[@NowayJose14]

He got the zoomiez

[@ulforcemegamon3094]

He do be spinning tho

[@robinhoed5729]

Love it

[@suppermanzzzz291]

what is the motor it used?

[@santiagobeltran5667]

Brushless AC motors. High power draw, but great in terms of output density

[@Mijo0x9]

Brushless 3-phase motors or like the guy above me, AC (3-phase) this persom prob used a set of O-drives and encoders to get this movement because with an encoder you can get the correct phase and power to spin the motors faster and at a higher torque, this way they also know thier position. We use servo's and brushed DC motors with drivers and encoders to build these kinds of robots because driving a DC Brushed motor is cheaper and easier then brushless 3 phase AC.

[@change252]

What’s the motor setup at the joints? What kind of gear setup is there? I’m not an engineer, but I’m very interested in how it works.

[@saratsuki777]

i believe those are capstan drives.

[@MiG-25IsGOAT]

*interstellar music starts playing*

[@ericlotze7724]

Can it balance / move without the high speed leg motion, or no?

[@kojire]

it can

[@KwembongJoseph]

How did you make it 😂

[@thewokal5641]

Spot on steroids
