At www.makeblock.cc its possible to buy aluminium robot parts and as I did (or better said, like the university did, because they paid for) complete assembly kits. This one is the starter kit blue and costs about 70€ at the local distributor. So I made some photos for documentation and fun:
-
- Package Box
-
- every mm is used
-
- 4 Wheels, 2 Tires, enough Tracks and every tool you’ll need to assemble
-
- first thoughs about future robots design
-
- sadly the steppers and this assembly kit are incompatible
-
- the dc motor after I attached the wheel
-
- complete kit
-
- kit with a CubieTruck on it
-
- it doesn’t fit as nicely as it looks
Sadly the screws make scratches to the blue surface. So in case you plan multiple designs, there is no way to avoid them but to use some washers.
