Title: $50 Robot Tutorial for Roboduino
Post by: airman00 on December 14, 2008, 01:29:33 PM: What would you guys think if I posted up a members tutorial on using the $50 Robot Tutorial on the Roboduino. That means that people don't have to make their own circuit board, but everything else would remain the same - code , info ,etc.

Is it worth doing? Should I add anything else?

You could make notes to add other advanced stuff to it like camera vision just an example. But hopefully you will have to time to make the tutorial.

Post by: airman00 on December 18, 2008, 11:02:50 PM: I have two options when making the tutorial:
Copy and paste Admin's tutorial into a page and then just modify the words and edit the steps in an order that is good for the Roboduino ( as well as changing some of the pictures to my own pics )
or
I can make a page and have links to Admin's tutorial pages and say : do Step 5 on Electronics Section, skip Step 6, etc.

What would you guys prefer?

I copied and pasted Admin's tutorial and just edited the content a bit for the $50 Robot Tutorial. I haven't gotten started on the other sections of the $50 Robot Tutorial
