I haven't read the tutorial for a while so can't remember what it covers and what it doesn't but if you let us know where you got up to and what else needs to be set up we can help you by explaining what to do.
The tutorials for the box bot tell you how to load the servo panel and get the wheels to move then seem to end there. #12 congratulates you on finishing.
Am I missing something?
Ummmm...
The tutorial has you assemble a box bot with arms, a neck and a camera as well as the wheels. At the end of step 11 after the wheels move using the servo panel the instructions refer me to the next tutorial. There isn't one. Step 12 congratulates me on finishing. Let's say I want to make the arms move or move the neck joints? What's the next step?
There's several more box bot programs but no tutorials to help a beginner through them.
Thanks for the feedback Machine27, we're going through our tutorials and will be updating them over the summer. Please feel free to comment on what you would have found helpful in building your first box-bot.
Lori,
The robot you see in the picture was to be run with a BS2. I decided to give the EZ-B a try instead. I did all the machine work and design on this robot. Everyone who's seen it in person says how cool it turned out.
I really want to make it function with the EZ-B so I'll continue to try the tutorials.
Thanks

I don't know. What isn't covered in steps 1-11 (sorry I can't check the tutorial at the moment).
What else do you need help on to get the boxbot moving? What have you got that isn't set up?
