Today will be a great day for testing all the Walking Gaits I want to program with ARC,I also just changed the eyes to the correct color and brightness of the movie Terminators using automotive dash L.E.D.'s 12 volt, super terrifying now. The Terminator has already scared a few old people here and it is not yet even 6 foot tall,that comes later with the lifting cylinder I am buying, he will lift upper body when ever not moving to search for stuff or observe cams but Lower when booting across the field. Some of you may remember how the larger Robosapien V2 had different walking styles,that is what I need to start on today,it helps with balance.Ghost hunts would be Fun with T-800 but I bet the ghosts would even be to scared to come near it, LOL!

This was going to be the first outdoors test with the Large wheelchair battery installed as it was running slower but with a small Lipo battery Okay but just slower, with the extra power , it seems to want to tilt to far left or right on the 360 turns,too much power now! So I will add some side support wheels to avoid this problem.

Ya, that doesn't surprise me. He's pretty tall and heavy for such a narrow base. You have a great idea there with side support wheels. Do you plan to have them powered and part of the drivetrain or just freewheeling and suspended just above the ground to "catch" him when he starts to tip?

Hey Dave I am looking to copy the DJ Snow robot design for better traction. Bigger ATV wheels and 2 larger castor wheels at back with wider axel.We had so much rain yesterday this bot design will only work on hard floors but not the mud. Stock

The 8 channel Relay board is on it's way so that I can control the old style DC motors in the Arms and wrists using along with the EZB to send the commands. This will be yet another learning experience getting the modern digital EZ to the old school relay board and figuring out the timing for each elbow to wrist movements. The Fingers gripping will likely need the HDD servo to work though. I will eventually replace the older DC motors to all HDD servos in the future. As this can all be controlled with just the EZ-B.

So I have gone back to the drawing board on outdoors mobility for the Terminator, Found an old Kiddy car that has the perfect sized wheels with rubber treads and the both corners at back have the larger wheels that spin 360 like castor wheels but are actual tire types. Will need to cut car body in half first to make it shorter and then add my window lift motors to the front,this should work on all terrain outside!

The 8 channel relay board came in so I am figuring out getting one relay working with ARC program to control Arm motor duration/speed.I am using the Older EZB-V3 as the 5 volt regulator for the Relay board and the EZB-V4 to get the signal also ARC program to adjust timing for relay#5 to open and close switch,next will be to control an Arm movement.

It's kinda cool seeing an old EZB-V3 burning away. At first when I saw it in the vidro I wondered why you were using outdated and unsupported hardware. Then I read your post where you're just using it as a regular. Very cleaver and a good use of devices on hand.

I heard the relay board clicking away. Looks like it's working!
