to mark as completed Tracked SHR
My first robot, roughly based on the Start Here Bot, for the moment at least.
I'm using a Picaxe-28 project board with the 28x2 chip, Sharp IR sensor, servo from the Servo upgrade pack, and the Tamiya twin gearbox, it's chassis is their universal plate.
I had some problems with MacAxepad, but after using the Programming Editor on windows (via BootCamp) I have a slightly modified start here bot. I plan on adding some more parts to it, I have a laser diode, and many LEDs so some of those might go on at some point in the future, for now though I'm going to be refining the code so that it can travel without getting stuck.
My current code is attached, video coming some time soonish.
