The HEX BOTS Black Widow is a new eight-legged robotic creature that represents an electromechanical marvel. The Black Widow features a powerful motor for faster crawling, 360-degree steering, a glowing LED eye, and a user-selectable infrared remote control with two channels. The IR remote control has rechargeable batteries and allows the user to operate multiple beetles independently or simultaneously. As the largest member of the HEX BOTS mechanical family, the complexity of its internal mechanisms and eight-legged crawling movement is both fascinating to operate and observe.
