GRATS JDEBAY!

I am happy for you!

they do have a ez-robot new smell to them...
Open boxes and letting them air a bit.

@d.cochran you will get yours soon... your twins. lol

Six is going to be called Zipper the hexapod-six.

Off to building him.

*blush* *confused* *eek* *mad* *eyeroll* *sick* *sleep* *stress* *tired*

Haha, I still don't know what the ez-robot scent is. I keep hearing about it but I've never seen a new box before. Hopefully soon!

Do not forget to align your servos in the Learn section

Soon I will have a servo Fine Tune Calibration tutorial as well.

@jdebay... In addition to DJ's suggestion... maybe you could do a video of the whole process from assembly, calibration to connection to help Nomad out?.....

@DJ Sures it smells like new plastic/rubber.
The smell is like the 1st Abs 3d print...

All 12 survos 90 degree done. I didn't have to adjust any them.

@Richard R I am taking lot's of pictures. Still's of six. Video for jd.

Great feedback! Thanks for letting me know

@DJ Sures

I have found it easier to clip the two servos first, then leg, and to the body.

The survos are hard to clip to each other, need to do a lot of wiggling back forth.
So they are connected correctly.

Robots made it to the School. will pick them up this afternoon and check all of the components before packing them back up for the students to do unboxing videos on Monday.

Great!

Happy Building!

And thanks for all your help too.

I will be doing that. Will be testing the EZ-B's for connectivity and Sound. Also testing all of the servos, sensors, cameras, batteries and Chargers. I will also be updating all of the laptop/tablets and making sure that everything is working on them correctly. I will be assigning a laptop/table and robot to each team and setting these tablet/laptops up to connect to a specific EZ-B to try to prevent issues. We will later go to Client mode after the students understand what is happening and what their limitations are in AP mode.

Thats 5 EZ-B's and laptop/tablets to get setup by monday along with a very busy schedule over the next 4 days. All good and this will be the fun part of the next 4 days.

I just want to verify there are no issues prior to class on Monday.

we will be here, if you need us.

teamview works great. j

I've been doing this type of stuff for about 25 years and have 2 ez-b V4's already. Thanks for the offer but I think I will be okay.

@d.cochran That is awesome news! Can't wait to see the videos!
