Real Robotics Discussion / First time bulding a robot, any advice?
« on: April 20, 2016, 04:17:11 AM »
The self-named project "TRIBUTE" is an idea to build a wide and low box with wheels with an electronic lifting arm,
the robot would be in the featherweight division because they are both small, simple and easy to build using cheap parts.
The robot would probably use three hacked drill motors to power both the chain-driven wheels and the lifting arm that's going to be a pain to design and build, it's also probably going to have a plastic/metal chassis with anti-flipper side-skirts because I thought imitating BioHazard and Storm 2 would be a fantastic idea in my head. Obviously it's going to be serious pain to construct and operate but I hope I can get all of my bases covered before I do anything stupid.
