LEGO Star Wars Motorized Walking AT-AT Buy Now
I bought this for my husband on Father's Day. I was quite excited to see him put it together. He got the legs done within an hour or so and we tried to make the thin walk....and all it did was twitch. We hadn't hooked up the power yet, but we figured the legs should move without it. At this point I was prepared to call LEGO headquarters and complain at length. He continued to put it together while I moped and fumed about our new non-walking walker. Finally he got to the power-pack installation and we turned it on...................and IT WALKED! When we tried to move it earlier it was not able to turn the motor so it siezed, but we couldn't tell that because it appeared that everything was turning as much as it could. We were seeing what turned out to be the motion of the worm gear switching between forward and reverse.
This little model is wonderful. It walks in forward and reverse and the head moves back and forth as it walks. I can easily see this being modified into other walking robots and it gives a great example of how rotational motion can be transformed into linear motion. Plus it's kinda cute. Pew pew
