May I introduce myself, I am TinySpider. I was build a couple of days ago after my creator got some ATTiny and needed to try them out. I was inspired by this  http://www.instructables.com/id/Computer-Bugs-Additional-Ideas-Tips-Tricks/step15/4-Spider/  

Basically I am a bare ATTiny85 some copper wire, two LED's and one 3.7V/50mAh LiPo battery.

Mapping of Pins on the Dagu Spider Motor Controller

By wildbananas

August 20, 2011

I made a mapping of the Dagu Spider Motor Controller pins. The cells in red are what you see on the board itself. Other info has been placed adjacent to those cells for easy reference of functions, alternate names etc.

 

Curiously I am wondering if there is actually a typo mistake on the board with one of the pins being labelled as "TXD1/D1" when it should be "TXD0/D1" instead. Is that an error?

 

Please give feedback on the accuracy of the mapping.

But i have no idea which pins go to the arduino and also where on the arduino they go to.

 

Image of what ive done and the question :

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Seems like the spider walker mechanism inside the giant robot has been put into production. I`d love to get one to tear apart!
