I have just finished a set of instructions to make an animatronic cardboard robot on YouTube. There are plans as a pdf to download. Instructions include building the robot and programming the robot.

Ingredients: 4 servos, micro:bit, micro:bit expansion with at least 4 servo ports, cardboard, scissors, utility knife, thin superglue, hot glue, paper bag, paper, sharpie pen, and jumbo paper clips.
