The panQuad is powered by 8 servo motors (SG90). In this version, the microbit is used with a robot bit. Other microcontrollers can also be used. The biggest challenge is the algorithm, which leads to a smooth forward movement. Any movement, forward, backward, turn, dodge is a challenge.

The sample code requires a 2nd microbit that initiates slow walking, fast walking and stopping. These commands are sent to the panQuad via radio. If you want to move the panQuad without 2nd microbit, the code can simply be changed.
