The Lego Robotics Tutorial
« on: May 24, 2014, 03:27:27 PM »
What you require to make a quick, simple lego robot

-2x motors, these can be either Extra Large, Medium or Large motors, I use Extra large since they have the most torque, speed and are easier to use with these types of lego technic
- A Battery Box, this can be either The AA box, the AAA box or the rechargeable battery box, The rechargeable battery box is the lightest but the most expensive where as the AA battery box is the heaviest but least expensive. I use the AA battery box.
-Wheels that are capable of providing traction- there is no point having larger motors but smaller wheels.
-An IR remote control, to control your robot
-2x IR receivers- These are the recievers for you to control your robot
-Lego technic bricks, you will need quite a lot of these
-Lego connectors, you need quite a lot of these is well, this is used for joining the chassis together, get the ones that span both 2 studs wide and 1 stud wide
-Lego axels- These are used to connect your wheels and your bricks to your motors.

More updates coming soon, be sure to tell me if I have missed anything in the above. :smile:

I... I think I've quit. Lurking and posting where I feel it's needed from time to time. I was never particularly good, but I tried. Never really succeeding, but trying all the same.
This is what I spend my time on now
