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....

Wow really? Ya I was actually lucky because I saw how hard the BB's were hitting the trees way in the back, The Terminator gun shoots bursts of about 10 that could have ruptured my eyes,LOL! Near miss there!
So I got a new V4 comm board because a spark had caused the board to stop connecting to my network .Now why are the 2 magnets at the bottom of EZB just loose there? Could they short out the bottom board as well? I removed them because 1 of the magnets was rattling around in there and it looks so close to the printed circuit board. Now the connection problem seems good.Before with the bad comm board it would still connect in Ad hoc mode but not client mode . Then the scripts would randomly disconnect the EZB connection at different times. Now with the new board scripts can run until the battery dies, big improvement in both Ad hoc and Client WiFi modes.
Before some one says, "those are EZ-Robot products" and to ask them for support, etc...I believe the magnets you speak of are on newer ezbv4/2 units and help them stay inside base units they clip in like JD, etc with magnets. They are there for reason. But before someone else says it, if you feel like it's a warrant issue you'd want to contact EZ-Robot from their site.
This is the Terminator project getting converted to Cylon classic robot but upgraded CGI version in real life.Will for sure be taller as it has a large helmet,shoulder length greater and arms extended.The head is still not glued all the way as I need to add the eye visor and mouth grill.The Chest piece and back pack also need to be fabricated.
That looks pretty cool. Did the hands/claws get painted black? Or is that just a camera trick?
Nice to see that you are constantly modding you robot!!
Thats the fun part if it right?
Oh yes Justin, I did paint the hands with Gloss black model paint to give it a more ominous effect. I sure do love modifications on the robot, sometimes I am working on 2 other bots at the same time, there is just so many fun things the EZ B system can let you do with out being a computer programmer just a normal guy....Ha ha ,sounds like a commercial.
Ha ha ! Terminator is laughing at Cylon because Cy looks like a wimp without his Chrome Battle armor! LOL! Ya i got his head attached to the Terminator Xoskeleton but still trying to order his Chest and Back pack Body Chromed Armor plates. This is the busy time right before Halloween because too many people are ordering the same Cylon body kits as Halloween costumes...GRRRR!
