Building the body frame of the mechanical bird
The beauty of this robotics kit is that you can easily get started with any type of build because of the new pieces that are included. You are going to use the two yellow 11x19 base plates to create a platform for the bird to be built upon:
- Connect these two yellow base plates using two black connector pins along the long side of the base plates.

- Add two azure 11x15 open frames to each end of the base you just assembled. Use two black connector pins on each end pin hole along with one gray perpendicular four-pin element to secure each open frame in place.

- Now that the base frame is built to keep the bird in flight, it is time to build the frame of the body of the bird. Start with the Intelligent Hub. On each side of the Intelligent Hub, secure a purple 7x11 open frame using two gray...
