Ok, hi there! I'm just new with this and it's my first time robot.
In this moment, I wait for the hardware - it is ordered - and can't wait to start.
My first one will be a standard robot (driving, sensoring...) with an Arduino clone mainboard (Freaduino UNO V1.8 from ElecFreaks) and L298N motor shield (from ElecFreaks) and some other stuff (geared motors from dfrobot and so on). Most things I will build on my own.
At this time, I've viewed all youtube video's but missed after 19 more? This was the thing why I'm going to this page and decided to build a own robot. I have read many tutors about Arduino board and viewed many videos.
My other hobby is build RC boats. And so... with some learning skills, I can do some more action on my boats.
Well, I have to wait for my order to begin ... but I can start to write some programs.

1st program code is ready. Don't know if it works, waiting for the mainboard and shield. Code is added...
A little bit about my programing style.
Next step, begining work on some things like chasis or something else.

Changed my mind. Delivery of hardware needs to mutch time. Looking for a nother (simpler and cheap) mainboard from "Dagu Magician Arduino Compatible Controller Board". The delivering will be mutch faster...
