Re: First time wiring a robot

a "ground stud" in these robots is not really "grounded", it is just a common negative battery connection. It can be a bolt, 1/4" would be a reasonable size (a 1/4" diameter bolt has a 7/16" hex head, some folks get confused about which size is the actual bolt size)

Put the bolt thru a piece of plastic, so you can mount it, and make sure it stays away from any other wiring or metal parts. Keep ALL wiring insulated and secured so the conductor does not contact the metal robot chassis or any other metal parts.
