So with Help From Various people including Oddbot and Chris the Carpenter i have a working Rover 5 Base and i can now control it with my IR Controller. It was a long journey and it is a massive mess of wires but ive finally got it working. To see some images go to http://www.robotspace.co.uk/Images/ Some of the images are 4288px x 3216px which is why im not posting here; Picture names ending in _S are the smaller versions. Let me know what you think ;) Thanks.
