Re: Mechanical going Electric
Change of plans. I'm going to build my own robot completely from scratch. I was planning on using the following items:
http://www.robotmarketplace.com/products/IL-TKT1.html
http://www.robotmarketplace.com/products/IL-GMS100.html

I will also be creating a chassis myself to mount these. Beyond this, I don't know what I need. Having it R/C would be really cool, and I'm open to programming necessary. As far as only autonomous, I'm not sure that'd be a good to take on that much at once. I am open to exploring it later on though. Any guidance on specific parts or general advice would be greatly appreciated.
