Title: What do I need to in order to get a belt track robot working?
Post by: Bot1 on June 24, 2010, 10:13:19 AM

I have the body designed but not built yet but I need to know first how to set up it's mechanical parts so that I can know what kind of belt track parts I need. I'm wanting to use four belt tracks for the mobility. I just need help on what to get and how to do it. I'm just a beginner, this is my first robot I've ever built, but I do have some connections with motors an that stuff cause I've taken a part remote control car motors. HELP ME! ???

You should really keep it simple for your first robot.
