Re: American Robot Season 2 Episode 4!

The slotted piece of angle is a part of the arm chain tensioner (you can see it quick during the "fly by" of the robot in the beginning of the episode - the slot is what mounts to the vertical square tubing). The three holes were various bolt thru holes for the tensioning sprocket. We have another nylon sprocket with a potentiometer tapped off this tensioning sprocket for arm positioning feedback.

The power wheels needs some serious overhauling...haha...those kids have beat that thing to the ground! Hopefully it will be up and running again soon.
