The main board design files will be here. I will walk through each component and why they are there. The reader is expected to be able to etch the provided PCB design.

The PCB is designed to be home-etching friendly. Lots of spacing and also only single sided copper clad boards are needed. Both the command station and the robot can use identical boards.
