Re: Battery Movement w/ Linear Actuator

I was considering this idea as well, it is possibly a safety violation and you should probably ask in the official Q&A if you wish to pursue this idea.

Two. There is a cool little tool on the top called search. You can use this to find threads related to what you are looking for.

I read one earlier that said you could do this, but the leads can only be so long on the battery 12inches, and the battery doesn't make up for a lot of the robots weight so it wont impact the cog very much. The best bet is to move you robot very slowly.

the other threads about were about battery orientation not movement.
