I Was Bored This Long Weekend So I Built This

I was messing around with some big drive motors meant for a robotic lawnmower, but came up with this instead....

1 x EZB4 1 x 2x5 Sabertooth motor controller 2 x Hitec HS-645 servos 4 x 16RPM seriously torquey gear motors 4 x 8" Lawnmower wheels 1 x 20 Watt solar panel and charger 1 x 7amp 12V SLA battery 2 x Vex 269 gear motors (for the panel retract mechanism)

Now I need to mount some sensors and an EZb Camera...

Still don't know what I want to do with it yet....
