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....

Ya well after 5 minutes the right motor started to fail, 6 years old so had to order a new one coming early next week.
hey roborad/ezang
i always order more parts then i needed . just incase .
I bet if you put treads on that thing it can plow snow. LOL
Yes Dave it has the power and torque to do it too! New motor came in today as well!
So I got distracted from building the giant robot, as this neat little guy was sent to me to try to improve the programming. I did see that the Ubtech Alpha2 web page still had support software that I can use similar to ARC for Windows11 P.C. Only the software only works if you don't unzip the file but just click on the Exe inside the zip folder and then no error message ,runs perfectly and will see the robot through USB as another cell computer hard drive, add your own program songs, edit movements,direct servo control just like ARC a bit of fun anyway.
Hi roborad
you have to say his name for avery command excample hello alpha dance
ecample hello alpha robot says whats up his ears turns green ,he's listening you say dance or dance for me
First test with new right motor, programmed with short 3 second movements since it is so huge and used slowest speed because I first had it set too fast and it really flew!
Well very exciting 1 of the last few hot summer days today.Then a cool down with plenty of rain coming this week, not sure if it will be ready for outside field testing in time. This is the mock up so far with body bucket. Eventually batteries and electronics will go inside. The Cylon goes on top of bucket making it my height! Can also swap anytime with a new Terminator body I am building with Shiny aluminum pipes and rods( over winter). Going to start drilling mounting holes and screws to make strong
