 ==Introduction==
-In November, 2019 we're introducing a new pre-built electrical system option for [[Vorpal the Hexapod]]. This is expected to cut build time by approximately half, and also should almost eliminate wiring errors. This article describes how to hook up the robot and gamepad wiring harnesses to components like the Nano, HC05 Bluetooth modules, etc.
