Re: Bot Building Questions!

Thanks to you guys I've successfully reversed a servo! May not be a lot to you guys but an achievement for me. I bought that 5 pack of Tower Pro MG90s off eBay that Peter mentionned at some point and they were orettt easy to take apart and change.

Re: Peter Wallers Robot Ramblings

The idea of the drive module is fantastic. can see this working especially well in schools but don't see why it couldn't be competitive too! It brings to mind the question whether two robots would be allowed to share one of these modules given that everything else stayed the same? It would allow for...

Re: Bot Building Questions!

It's me! back again with more questions! Originally I was asking about a claw bot, however after consideration I've had a change of plan!

Re: Tashic's ants

These bots look fantastic! And the engineering and construction behind them is some of the best I've seen on here. In a way I am glad that you live in Italy as you would beat many of our UK bots! :P
