Now that I have finished B.O.B., my get your feet wet bot, I have begun my next hack. This next robot will bridge the gap between Bob and my ultimate big robot. I am starting with a remote controlled B9 toy from Trendmasters. It was very limited in what it did, and the drive section was pathetic, but it was B9!
Before Pics:
Here is what B9 looks like now:
I have mounted clear LEDs in the appropriate colors in the chest at the bottom of the decal and have a flashing circuit that will blink them in the combination as seen on the series. Where the two large round circles are (white domes on the big guy) I will have my ping sensor. I have mounted pager motors in the antenna housings to turn the "sensors" as seen in the TV version. I have mounted red El Wire to his voice plate to emulate the original as well. I have also mounted a series of blinking LEDs to the "brain" section in the bubble.
Next is to work on the rotation of the bubble and torso, articulate the arms and claws, and make a real functioning tread section. For the tread section I am adapting the base from my RAD robot. I will keep you posted with pics as I proceed.
Thanks,
Bret

so far the best tracks for the B9 is the RAD tracks ,it doesnt flex that much has a lot more torque to handle batties and more,plus DAGAU ROBER 5 costs more $50 plus shipping on ebay RAD'S going for under $30,i got one at $10 and another at $15 ,and third one restoring it
on my omnibot project i need super stong tracks like vex robotics ,because loooking at making it a BIONIC OMNIBOT
Yes, I am using the RAD base under my B9 - I haven't weighed him yet as I am still adding things and the weight will go up. But I can give an estimate within a pound or two. At work now but will be home soon and back to work on B9.
BRET you did a great job so far ,looks real good one very good reason to use better tracks,last much longer not much stress,plus less current too
@Robotmaker - Thanks! Altogether - B9 is 17 lbs. And that RAD base with 12V battery moves him around great!
Is there any difference in the RAD 1.0 base and the Rad 2.0 base? I have a 1.0 and was wondering about how much load it can handle.
@rgordon - I am using the 1.0 base in my B9. And like I said, with 12V battery it is moving 17 pounds fairly well.
OK. Thanks.
I got my torso painted and installed my radar and battery level indicator.
