This project has evolved some , the basic rundown is I'm modding two Omnibots , one a regular the other a larger 2000 model. I will have two ezb kits , rad base idea was thrown out because of so much noise but could go back on the table if the omnibot drivetrain is too weak to pull it.

Update , recieved rover 5 today , treads feel they are very good quality rubber with only a small amount of stretch. They are not stretchy as I thought. If I do my tread conversion I may need a idler /tensioner to be sure these stay on tightly. From looking they appear they will fit I only question how snug.
i got JSTARNE ominibot 2000 in today it looks good on outside,but arms need alot and lot of work,rusty springs and screws,but may not need them depends if servo's fit or homemade motor design i see on the hand grips is realkly messed up and one hand rubber grip is missing,anyone has the rubber grip pads for sale

Original plan for track drive , I fear it may not be as.tight as I want so I plan to install the wheels that come with the kit pressing agianst the belt to maintain tension.Basically I can use my dremel to carefully cut a knotch dead center of the wheels , its must be a couple mm wider than the teeth on the belt. Also I must cut out the dividers between each wheel so I can get the belt in and out. I don't believe it will need anymore modifications than that
i do some stuff like that at work in the lathe they have ,cant wait to get it,wont need my dremel tool to much about end of may looking to get it, its about $1000 total,but need to make a bench for it ,since very heavy item,have plenty of room in my shed my parents gave to me,20 ft by 60 ft long shed,took a special truck to move it,and my dad had it for awhile before he gave to me paid $12000 for it.metal outsid and wood inside
Geezer , I could live in.that .... And would too lol
funny part about it i did one day,but a very long time ago when i was young,my dad got mad at me and got kicked out of his house for a night,he did forgot there was beer in the small refrigerator,it was his wood work shop at that time
Ha ha ha , that's great. Here is a picture of my fridge....
Oh wait ! I got lost jstarne1 ! I thought this was your work space pic ! lol JK
