Re: Get The Newbies on the Line

Sounds good!

some topics.....off the top of my head.....

The Tortoise and the Hare: Speed and Torque (and traction)

No Smoking: Wire sizes, insulation, current, fuses, safe wiring practices

Tipping: Center of Gravity and how to make a robot stay upright

Screw it: Choosing the right fasteners and using them properly

Draw it: How to get your ideas across so others can understand them

It bent!: how to figure out what material to use, which shape, and size

Mind over Matter: Programming

Strength training: Manipulators and arms, gearmotor selection

Poof: Pneumatics systems, plumbing, and control


Probably there are a few more, as I was only thinking about the actual robot.

Please keep us up to date on your progress!
