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.

Hey Josh - you could use a roller blade wheel as a tensioner. It has a nice bearing and rolls smooth. You could probably pick up a pair of roller blades really cheap at a yard sale or thrift store. They might take more punishment than those little tires that came with the kit.
Or even just go to a hobby shop and get some RC car wheel/tires - you know, the ones for the carpet RC racers. Those would be light and the dense foam tire would be easy to cut into for the track guide. Just a thought.
P.S. I will be posting a pic of my work area tonight. It started out as some space in the garage, then my wife gave me a corner of the bedroom, now I have it spilling out into the living room..haha.

ok everyone knows even a video card you can.buy.used for 50 dollars is better than onboard graphics , so I set out to get a good.video card at low cost. At bestbuy I came accross this Nvidia GT 520 multi display card. It was about 120 but with a little negotiation best buy let me have it for about 94. Thanks bestbuy for you small but appreciated sponsorship....
Ok I fibbed lol there was a sale on this card when it came out in Feb , the sticker was on the shelf hidden under box , I took a pic and talked their.customer service into.helping a brother out
I already know what your thinking "oh no there goes this bots battery life with a video card like that" well there are two possible solutions , first is I could have a admin login where.the PCI card is activated and a robot login where PCI is disabled / video card turned off. If I didn't want to go to that trouble it comes with software that's turns its gpu clock down or even off when no.monitors are detected like when the bot is autonomous....
This gives me productvity options of.multiple screens when working on my.projects
My.current power supply.is.rated at 160 watts , if I must upgrade I.will go to a 250 watt but I believe this will work fine given I'm using a mobile version 25 watt CPU..
Ok I started the track conversion , I removed my rubber tires very carefully so I could put it back on the rim so this modification is completely reversable.
I will need to cut a groove similar to this v groove in the rover 5 wheel , it must be consistant and dead center so the belt never touches the edge of the wheel.
I planned on using the wheels that come with EZb kit , they seem to be perfect size don't they?
i tore down the omnibot i got from you JOSH ,what is the white foam under the speaker,looks kinda like soap,and its in a few other places too
It's probably residue from where it was whitened.
no dont need any speaker my friend,just wondering,might reclean it again ,just took it apart to see what to order for it and my plans do you have any rubber grips for the hands ,one is missing or any ideas to make one i also may make new hands if i cant find stuff to fix it also on base did you measure the torque of the motors with weight
