What If There Was An Ezb Pro? What Would It Have?

Ok this is just to kick around ideas but what if you could buy a ready to go kit to trick out your EZB V3? I have a few ideas myself but I want feedback

1.-Built in wifi 2.4 ghz option for long range / networking

2.-a plexiglass case consisting of a base 1/4" plexi, standoffs and 1/4" plexi cover to protect ezb and wiring

3.-a servo wire loom organizer , somthing simple to clean up wiring

4.-lighting in the baseplate of plexi surrounding ezb in a square halo of blue (or other) light

5.-a 2200mah or 5000mah lipo battery to power ezb and servos instead of AA batteries , complete with Y harness for easy charging or rigging your externsl charger

6.-a high current 6v power board for high torque servos that easily connects to the case as a module. Get the full potential of a servo at 6v high current rather than 5v and lower current.

7.-a small fan probably a slimline and QUIET 6v or 12v to keep air running accross the heat sinks built into the EZB Pro mounting plate for a cool and happy EZB

8.-ability to add on a small Darlington Transistor board to operate high current items like LED arrays , Bright lights , relays, ect and mount to either side of the EZB pro case or mounted separate. This would have between 4 and 8 transistors for turning items on.

9.- Reset Switch - to easily power EZB on or off to pair or just kill the power other than pulling connections loose.

10.- Status lcd maybe? Ive seen them for arduino and they can show many things , like battery level , voltage , the scripts being ran , errors ect.

11.- 2 USB plugs - for powering a camera and other 5v usb electronics

  1. Maybe EZB Pro kit could have like 6 High Torque Servos 240 oz in @6v

  2. EZB pro kit could have the option of getting a l298n 2.5a or 12a Sabertooth included

14.Heavy Duty servo LONG ext cables with thicker gauge wire to support the demands of high Torque servos that can draw 5 to 7 amps each lengths of around 300mm and 500mm assortment.

Just revisiting this thread , DJ , Alan and the staff implemented most of our suggestions in the EZB V4 , awesome right? , Props guys - Josh

That's what set's you apart from the rest, you listen and you provide pretty much anything we ask for:)

One thing that keeps cropping up and I don't think has been sorted is an external power board for 6v servos. Are things like this (and TIP120, Battery Monitors/Voltage Dividers etc.) also part of the revolution/coming soon/planned for future? I have some board prototypes designed (although not built or tested yet) but if these things are coming then I'll hold off on those boards and use EZ-Robot ones. Otherwise I'll throw the board designs and schematics out there for discussion, fine tuning and testing.
