Help With Wowwee Roboquad

Hi, I just got the RoboQuad from ebay and I started to follow the video on connecting the EZ-B to it, but when I opened the head it looks different then the video. The board says G7303-3A. Can someone help in wiring it up? steve3624

Hi jstarne1, I don't think I will buy another, I might get another one like I have and won't be able to connect the ez robot to it. Steve

Sorry, but I have to much $ into this one, and if I get another like mine then it shipping to and from DJ, so I think I will move on to something else. I can sell this one to you if your interested. Steve

That's really too bad... I wonder if there is anything further i can do.

I was talking to someone who told me Wowwee licenses other manufacturers to build their products after the initial inventory is discontinued. Comparing your RoboQuad to mine, it looks like yours is very different. It doesn't have the Wowee labels and some other differences. Also yours doesn't seem to make any noise when turned on, where mine makes a bunch of zip zap noises. The circuit boards inside are very different also - totally different chips too!

I wonder if there is any information I can scrape up on the internet to find out more about their IR protocol...

If you could that would be great. Maybe there's a reason it was sold without a remote. I really do appreciate what you are doing. Thanks

Hi DJ, Were you able to find any more info on the Roboquad? Do you still think you will be able to solve the problem? Thanks, Steve Tripoli

Hi all. I just received the same version (2007/02/03) of the RoboQuad from eBay 40.00 USD. I have the remote and the robot performs as expected. DJ would you have time to look at it and work your magic? I can send it to you with the remote. What do you think?

@LeversOfPower if you have the same version, i'd love to get it. Could you send me your remote? Please use the Contact Us form and send us a message. Alan will get back to you with an address to send it too (depending on where i am).

@Steve, if you don't mind - i'll wait for @LeversOfPower to send his remote and then i'll be able to add support for these new version quads:)
