Well done! Happy to see you’ve included the steps. Perhaps step 3 can be programming and provide the sample code?
Want to provide the wiring diagram and code for the controller too?

Hey @Big_Face,

I really liked your video

How long did it take you make all of this?

Also, have you thought about putting a little bit of grease on the gears?

And, I hope you will soon solve the issue with balancing of the platform!

Looking forward to another video

Thanks for the suggestions, Ill add the wiring diagram for the controller to the post and a step for programming.

Big_Face

Thank you. I’ve been working on this for the past month or so. Plus some time for making the videos as well. I have managed to get the robot to balance, which I will show in the next video, but adding the castor makes for a much more stable platform to work with.

This looks impressive and you have certainly put a lot of time in this.

Thank you again for this inspiring bot - I’ve managed to get my GoPiGo3 bot, Carl, to do the data collection along the lines of your Big-Wheel-Bot. Next will be to understand your path and occupancy grid programs.

The garden robot looks well built. I see that you replaced the internal ring gear, Part 5, with a gear box. Did weeds catch in the gears? I considered a ring gear for the small tractor that I am building but am afraid of entanglements.
