Your ROBONOVA-I kit was designed for easy assembly in 6 to 8 hours using only a
screwdriver.
This
fully articulating, 12" high, mechanical man is controlled with 16 powerful
HSR-8498HB digital servos built specifically for the ROBONOVA-I by Hitec. These
custom servos feature locks on the servo arms for easy assembly,
over-voltage current protection, super strong Karbonite gear trains and feedback technology for simple programming.
Micom Board with Flexible Interface
The control board is the heart of the ROBONOVA-I. Secured to the back of the
robot under a strong plastic case, the control board can operate up to 24 servos
and 16 accessory modules. Optional devices will eventually include gyros,
acceleration sensors, speech synthesis modules and operational devices such as
Bluetooth controllers and R/C transmitters and receivers. This flexible and
sophisticated interface allows the user to customize ROBONOVA-I into the robot
of their dreams.
The custom gold anodized metal servo brackets serve as strong and lightweight
exoskeleton. ROBONOVA-I also features durable plastic body case components that
protect the control board and battery from damage.

Powering the ROBONOVA-I is a 5 cell, environmentally friendly NiMH rechargeable
battery that delivers around 1 hour of operational time. Other battery options
can include 7.4 volt 2 cell Lithium Polymer battery packs when used with a 6
volt regulator. The included D/C to D/C charger features a protection circuit to
help prevent battery charging mishaps.
Extensions
ROBONOVA-1 can be extended with several accessory modules and
items: additional servos and brackets, gyros, acceleration sensors, speech
functions, R/C control accessories and more can also be added as they become
available.
