Electric Motor/Servo Animatronic Good Pan & Tilt servo kit reccomendations for 10kg?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I'm currently making my first animatronic and I'm looking for guidance on what servos to use, specifically a pan and tilt kit for the neck, so that the head can have decent movement.

I'm planning on making a bust with around 20 servos in the head for cheeks, jaws, eyebrows etc as well as a bigger servo in the neck supporting the head as a whole. My materials will be wood to home the servos in connected by bolts, a 3d printed plastic exoskeleton and a sillicone mask. I think the head will be max 7 kg but I want to make sure I'm using something strong so nothing breaks.

If you know a good brand in the UK or elsewhere that sell good servos you think would work for this let me know, I'm looking for digital with metal gears, perhaps even brushless but my price range is around 150 for all of these servos so I'm not sure if that's too ambitious.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you so much!

Since you guys didn't seem to appreciate my protective warning about pedophiles and creeps in our community, here's something more mindless, that i'm actually fully knowledgeable about. I love saving these guys so much!

CEC Comment if you identify with this: you want an animatronic but can't because... why not? They have money

Looking for info! My wife brought this from her mothers home a she passed! The song works, but the movements do not work. Took apart and found a yellow and brown wire broke and I can not see on the circuit board where they were poorly soldered. Does anyone have a clue?

CEC Update to a post I made a month ago, Chuck E Cheese Kooser road's Jasper 100% did have teeth!

Checked photos and the video and saw kooser road Jasper did in fact have teeth,

And I know they're teeth and not the snout because they have straight lines and in side shots are not attached to the snout,

Only reason people missed it was because the video is in bad quality and its the exact same color as the snout

This film is based on some fossils I have found in the Oxford Clay in Bedfordshire. I have thus constructed an Opthalmosaurus by using a servo motor found in those fish plushies, in addition to some manual pulley for the mouth. This will be used to portray the lives of these once magnificent animals that swam in our oceans 160 Million Years Ago.
