We got those by accident during the season, and are just trying to get rid of them.

The entire turret assembly (and everything on it) can be unbolted from the drivetrain, but the electronics are a huge pain to access.

I would love to see some more pictures from different angles, or maybe even a video once it is operational

We did a couple of weeks of prototyping in June, but the rest was done in CAD over the summer. I will upload more pictures when we finish it, along with some other specs.
