Re: Tips for Robots in Parades

Be Safe
• Be prepared in case of rain (have plastic bags ready)
• If you are driving the robot on the ground, consider the damage to your wheels (omni wheels and asphalt don't mix, I wouldn't test rovers either)
• If you can, figure out a way to store two batteries within your robot. This makes battery changing even quicker.
• Kids love candy. Buttons wouldn't hurt either.
