  1. My #antweight #battlebot ended up in the middle of the ranking at the Hack&Make Nuremberg. I learned a lot and meet many cool people. My next bot will be more competitive but still unweaponized.

  6. Almost complete. Think we need to shave some grams to make weight. We would like to add back the two fixed forks though.

  11. Well, the #antweight #battlebot can self right, so that’s a win.

    We’re just over weight, so might need to skimp on some armor, or quickly redesign the side armor to save weight.

    No time to really test the thing, but I don’t think we’ll be embarrassed in our first fight this Saturday in Rocklin

  16. 13yo ’s flipper bot is powered and wired.

    He wanted to put everything with screw terminals so we can swap parts out if we need.

    The two main problems we have are:

    1) The motors are working weird. Essentially everything rotated 90 degrees. (Eg right is forward). This is most likely a configuration issue with the controller or receiver. We need to read the instructions.

    2) He cut the wires without measuring them carefully, so they’re all a bit short. We can probably get them all jammed in there, except for one drive motor. We can either make the chassis a bit higher, or splice the wire and make it longer. (I think we should just splice it.)

    We still have about 86 grams to reach the weight limit, and we still need some side armor.

    We should be fine.

  21. More kids attending the catbot class these days in addition to adults. The soldering can be a little difficult for them, but they really enjoy the final stages of the process.

    The faces of kids and grownups alike light up when they realize they're about to have a fully functioning rc bot they built themselves. It's very rewarding!

  26. Inside the catbot, the electronics are very simple. This receiver board also serves as the power distribution board and basically the only electronics.

    The 9v battery powers the board, which then sends power to the 2 lifter motors and the 2 drive motors based on the signal received from the cheapo radio transmitter. That's it.

  31. Video of Henry's adventures

    I would've "renoted" that, but iooks like that PeerTube instance isn't federating easily? I don't see a post corresponding to that video.

  32. This catbot is a kitbot for the local makerspace. Modified a thingiverse design to work for this purpose and I'm pretty pleased with the result!
