Tezsmith's My Robot Story
My robot story For many years ( more than I would like to remember) I have been a programmer. I have carried out...
You should bring him to Celebration this weekend so ours can be the only 2 astromechs that move on their own *eyeroll*
@jasonr2 I wish I could give a simple answer, but that is pretty complex as there are a million ways do it.... a syren 10 is what I have my dome hooked up with and sabertooth controller to the scooter motors in the feet.. all controlled by the ezB..
I'm close to having the main droid together (working on the foot drives currently), then I will be onto the electronics. I'm currently running Teeces in the dome with a MarcDuino. It appears I have the same foot motor/wheels that you have used (trying to figure out how to make them fit in the shell). I have smaller belt driven wheels I bought also.
I received my EZ brain today! I'm so excited to get to the electronics part of the project. If you have any pointers, let me know. I'm trying to figure out how to run the MarcDuino from the EZ Brain so they will work together instead of having different apps or controllers for each.

i just cut everything to fit inside the resin foot ... i will try and dig up pics. my dome lights are running solo from everything else and have a switch in the dome to turn them off and on... i did not want to mess with a slip ring and all that jazz ( i am pretty lazy lol )
As far as pointers go..i dont know where to start, but if something roadblocks you ask me and i will let you know if i ran into the same issue.
@windcharger its a Resin dome from the astromech junkyard.
May the force be with you,
Ken
I will try to post more on my build however soon
