Re: Robot Cart Suggestions

I am currently building a motorized robot cart for my team. It uses 2 electric wheel chair motors and the electronics from our 2002 robot. It uses the 2002 robot and operator interface teathered of course. The cart also doubles as a shipping crate to ship all of our tools and spare parts. And is made of wood.
Some things to remember:
1. Not too big space in the pits is limited
2. Must be able to fit through a doorway
3. Make sure it can go long distances, if you go to Atlanta this would come in handy
4. There will be speed bumps, so make sure you can clear them.
I think thats just about it.

Oh and on the cart we have also confiscated the 2002 revolving light that will set on top of the cart and also we are trying to get some blue neon tubes to put in the electronics area. The cart itself is pretty much done all that is left is to paint it and make the skids for shipping, I hope to have it done the same time as the robot which looks like it will happen.
