First I would like to apologize for bad recording. I held the camera in one hand and assembled the bot with the other one.

Parts list:

– Two electric scooter motors (ebay)
– SmartDriveDuo Smart Dual Channel 30A Motor Driver (https://www.robotshop.com/en/smartdriveduo-smart-dual-channel-30a-motor-driver.html)
– 4 channel remote system (Hobby King)
– Rubber tracks and wheels (Local hardware dealer – from a tracked snow blower)
– Lead-acid batteries and electric cables (Local electronics store)
– Frame and metal parts (Local hardware store)

  1. very cool design and good step by step video. wondering if something like this could be used to animate a Lost in Space B-9 !:1 Robot?

  2. Hey this looks awesome, I’m trying to make something similar but I’m having some difficulty. Could you tell me how many mounts and rings with screws(I don’t know the name)you used:) thank you for the vid

  3. Where did you get those bearings and axles.. I can't find tutorials anwwhere about wheels and axles on robots…

  4. Where did you get the black aluminum profiles from that you mounted the motors onto to then screw onto the frame?

  5. Can you suggest substitutions for item made on 3D printer? And what local hardware store provided frame and snowblower treads?

  6. Really cool, I'm doing some research for my own project. I see your motor controller is half the price of the sabertooth controllers I keep seeing, has it been a good choice? Again, great video, thanks

  7. Great work!
    How long does the battery last? Have you tried the maximum load it can handle?

  8. How much can this push or pull? I am looking to do this exact build to use as a tracked platform for a snow plow or a snow blower. Should I use geared scooter motors? Great build! Thank you.

  9. This is an extremely easy and helpful video and Thankyou very much

  10. that is not a robot but a R/C tank there is no computer or microcontroller just a R/C transmitter

  11. is there a wiring diagram available? I've built one like yours, but without track wheels.

  12. What is the run time with the two 5ah sla batteries for this robot? does it last long?
