Rover From Brookstone

You may want to look at this project by Robotmaker. He cracked the case and mounted a different camera.

I have a Rover and had a notion of using a tendon system to move the camera, but I never completed the thought. It's such an elegant body design, I just didn't have the heart to modify it.

A bit of an old topic but it was found by the search (and I don't start too many topics if I can help it):)

I just picked up an ispy tank (it was on offer for £30 which isn't a bad price) with the intention of converting to EZ-Robot software and hardware.

Has anyone had any luck with this tank? Not sure if it's the same protocol as the brookstone rover or rover 2 but it would be nice to use it with minimum modification (not that it's a problem to crack it open and throw in a H-Bridge and different camera).
