Tamiya 70166 Walking Robot Kit with Sound Sensor  [70166]

Tamiya 70166 Sound-Responsive Walking Robot for Learning

This Tamiya kit is designed to teach the basics of motion and link mechanisms through an easy build. The model can be built with two, four or six legs all driven by one motor, and the fitted sound sensor triggers movement when it detects noise.

Learn by Building

The assembly demonstrates how simple linkages turn motor rotation into walking action, offering a clear practical example of mechanical motion. The build uses push rivets instead of screws to keep construction straightforward and accessible.

What You Get and How It Runs

The kit contains a sound sensor unit, motor, universal plates, arms, fasteners and a battery case, all sized for hands-on assembly. No complex tools are needed. Power comes from two R6/AA/UM3 batteries, which are not supplied with the kit.
