Wheeler Chair Robot

I saw that last year somebody had built a wheel chair robot?. My idea for the new Robot will be as a stage mascot that can also pretend to play the drums on stage. My brother has a live Metal band every Saturday night and most of the time we have trouble with no drummer showing up. We end up using a Drum machine instead with the 2 other guys on real guitars and singing. So Terminator will be able to move around and substitute behind the drum kit with the Live drum machine signal activating terminator arms at the drums. Also need him to move around in a wheel chair , so is anyone out there that has done this wheel chair hack, looking for suggestions on power/motor controller connections etc...should not be too hard just larger than I'm used to building. This is a youtuber that bought what I just bought,takes a month to get from China and we are building the rest of the Endoskeleton to integrate in wheel chair....

I was looking at ridiculous high cost 99 dollars video edit software on Facebook ads, surely there must be free programs for Windows 11? Found one that has many free special effects but resolution limited to 320 p so ...

I was trying to see if I could make a real life version of this scene in BG Razor movie with my cheaper CGI gun flashing effects in previous vid, but it looks like editing video like that has so much work even if their robots are not real, just CGI animated bots in the Razor movie. I guess the actors had to pretend there was 2 insane Cylon bots chasing them in the hallway. I know I posted this scene a few times before ,but that was what I was going for ,as my first time doing a special effect edit with real robot. I know needs more work, LOL!

Well I got this victory XL heavy duty electric 4 wheeler from a friend last year. Was going to use the rear half to become an outside robot platform, powerful enough to drive through tall grass,mud, rocky pathways.Then I fell off a porch and busted my knee cap. So even after a year I still have trouble walking. While the roomba is great for indoor robots I will need to rely on my old Terminator wheel platform outside but with a stronger amp motor controller. I will still need to use the Victory 4 wheeler to get me around at the cottage this summer.The Terminator wheel base uses car window high torque motors.It just needs cosmetic improvements (2nd picture)

So the new heavy duty Cytron 20--50 Amp h bridge dual motor controller just shipped over.Half the cost of a good Sabertooth motor controller but exactly what needed for my outdoor robot wheel base. Going to try Terminator body first for testing out in the field, then add the 5 foot Cylon body later, going to be in a crazy youtube movie I am editing for my channel!:)
