Pictures - yesterday's projects

As requested and a $400 camera later

Here are pictures of my glorified 26 pounder ( cut some fat when moved to the Lynxmotion motors from the Harbor Freight drill motors)

Here is picture of the control program I created to wirelessly control the platform (glorified RC car with PC control).

Next rendition will contain the trackset along with the sensors for more autonomous control

The 8 feet of track is currently only five with two more in the mail.

Wow…
Very clean looking.
Nice job!

By the way…
Clicking PRT SC on your keyboard gives a very nice picture of what you’re viewing.
:laughing:

Nice to see that you’re using Visual Basic (Express.NET, right?).
:stuck_out_tongue:

cool bot /glorified RC car :smiley:

i have to agree with Nick and say how clean that thing is, that wires and such, very nice

btw, is that battery pack in the 1st and third picture the power for the whole thing? :open_mouth:

Very nice indeed! Where did you get those aluminum bars from?

Thanks guys

Actually, I use VB6.0 as I have not upgraded (miser)

No, the pack you see is for the servos only. Underneath there is 12-D 10,000 mAh cells in series for the motors and H-bridge and an addional 4-C 5000mAh cells in series for the microcontroller/transceiver logic

Those aluminum bars came from 2 accessory/expansion packs that were offered by Evolution Robotics. They are great for throwing together a platform that I overlay with home depot plastics in short order.
