I posted this in the wrong section I guess, but here is a link to my newest bot - RoboRAD. I am combining a RAD 2.0 base and a robosapien.

I plan on just providing 6 volts to the pcb on Robosapien initially and see how well he works. Since I am not using the legs/motors at all, all of that wiring has been removed. I made a little progress last night. I used my bone cement to fill in around the base of robosapien where he attaches to the RAD (with his abdomen pieces on) and did some dremel work to smooth things out. Tonight I can apply a finish coat of bone cement to give hime a nice surface for painting. Then I will just do some touch up paint to make him blend into the RAD. I also drilled a hole where I can fish my wiring from the base up to the EZ-B that will be on his back.

I also have a volt meter coming in, so then it is onto making the riser.

6 volts will be ok for PCB, i will think you need about 9 volts for the motors still, I took off my legs on one off and wiring
