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....

Would make a great Terminator pet! The completed models are chrome plated too!

Going to do a field test before sun goes down, if the big 12 v battery does not go for at least 30 minutes , I will switch to using 2 Roomba lithium batteries I have ,as more power and so much lighter.

The test went well. The wheel nuts will come loose after some travel as I can't find a 12 mm wrench in my tool box! Also thinking of adding a second axel to keep motors 100 percent straight near bottom connecting motors together.Headless body for now in testing.

Should I give it the old Terminator electric bb machine gun? Or a bit too much for guard duty?

Hey Nomad I had too much fun chasing the Racoons with This T800 inspired bb rifle. This one could bruise a leg! Used EZ cam to target moving objects or a red garbage can that Racoons were knocking over:)
