hub for wheels
Hi. It's a very good looking bot. It was necessary to use any kind of hub to attach the wheels to the GM9 shaft?

Remove a jumper and plug it in.
Remove the jumper down at the bottom right (where the red V1 square and blue V2 square are) and plug your motor/servo battery pack red wire to the blue square pin, and the black wire to a yellow square ground pin. Leave your present pack plugged in as is. Might be good to add a switch or 2 somewhere, if you got 'em.

i was like crying when i saw
i was like crying when i saw that the TAMIYA TWIN GEARBOX which cost almost $10 was almost only $6 here.
And a Tamiya set of twin gearbox, thread clog set and a platform was a total of only $16.548. T_T
i was shocked for 10min. then i should have saved alot on the items and A LOT LOT MORE on the TAXES.
Oh men....... I wasn't looking enough. hobby shops here are rare to find. i should have just ordered the picaxe and the srf05.
when i go to my on-the-job training this april i will hunt for hidden hobby shops in the capital city.
oh well. lesson learned.

Nothing beats picking up
Nothing beats picking up broken or 2nd hand printers or VCRs for a couple of dollars from your local recycle shop. They give up tons of great doo-dads that you can use in robots. If you can get them free from family members its even better!

your robot is looking good so far, keep it going!!!

Your battery-clips all seam
Your battery-clips all seam to be less than 4 cells.
My experience tells me that one get's happier with 4 - specially when using rechargables, which I also recomend. They only have 1.2V

Thanks

You could run from 4.5V,
