WHAT ARE THE CAPS?

Post by: G.K. on January 25, 2010, 03:41:31 PM
He means don't post in caps lock

As for the bot, anything on the left side for Forward/Back needs to be wired counter clockwise
                                                                                                       clockwise
Everything else should be the other way round

oh god. there is no such thing as a "control panel" for real-life robotic combat. you need a transmitter, receiver, speed controllers and electric motors.

Is there any online shop that I can buy these things?how can I make my robot go left or right.

0_0 dude, please, for the love of GOD, don't try to build a bot
you don't know what makes them steer, or that they need transmitters recievers, and you want to build one.
1. take R/C car
2. take off body
3. duct tape metal plate to front
4. don't you dare put a spinning wepon on there
 
there 'ya go

You don't just slap stuff on a frame dude. RESEARCH MAN. I reasearched for about a year before I built mine, and it's still not good enough IMO.

And Sparkey, RC cars to combat robots = no.

I'm helping him for his first bot, if he had a BB toy that would work
 
I just don't think he has the skills to build a bot, he-.. nevermind

And Sparkey, RC cars to combat robots = no.

it can work ... mine are pretty effective for salvaged R/C stuff

as there is to what degree ? you can buy R/C stuff for hundreds of dollars too ? something I am going to spend in the near future (not for robots though :P)
