you should try putting anothet brace on the outside of the wheels to prevent the axles from bending and omni directional wheels will help you stear better
Yes, this one is all starter kit. I bought some extra pieces while they were on clearance, an extra hardware kit, more gears, some extra wheels and a line-following kit. Unfortunately, I didn't get the programming kit which is needed for the line-following kit. :-(
It's not hard. When both control sticks are forward, two motors move forward, when both control sticks are away from each other, the other two motors move. So to move forward, move the control sticks up and away from each other and all four motors go. Down and in and they all go in reverse. You can turn by using variations of these.
Definitely, two motors are easier to control, because then you can just turn on tank mode and use one control stick for everything.
That's not that hard to build ...

if you put 2 omni wheels on the front it helps alot with steering

Silencer, Cam, Night Vision. Perfect.

isn't that the exact same thing that comes with the basic kit? You know, the tumbler? (only difference i see is the wheels)

hey did you used a single motor controller to control all four motors?

i had to make one almost just like this in school. i love that class. GOOD JOB!

you can have a 4wd robot using tank controlls

u should really get some grip on the wheels but nice work.

cool now all you need is a gripper of a camera, then it will be the ultimate spying robot.

Hah! I think a gripper may not be too useful on a robot that can drive upside down, but actually we're working on a stationary gripper now.

Thats great, if It where gearboxed some way with only 2 servos, it would go much faster

The line follower kit allows you to write a program that will allow your bot to drive itself following a line.

Easier said then done. Its really complicated to get it to work.

that's kinda weird how the front or back wheels don't skid on the ground, the wheels are different sizes

how do you hook the motors up?
octanetripledax 4 years ago
Simple, you just follow the instructions that come with the vex robot kit. :-) I think I used the 2nd through 5th digital i/o ports.

how do you control 4 motors with 1 remote?
octanetripledax 4 years ago
you can control four motors by using why cables or by programming the microcontroller
