Project X-Men "Juggernaut"
I just purchased from ebay an MGA-1 Quadtrax which I plan on merging the upper torso of a robosapien. My plan for this weekend is, to open up the quadtrax and see if I can hack its circuit board.
I'm looking at removing the the canopy and mounting the Robosapien torso.
I will use the old EZ controller to get it up and working, and then transition to the new controller.
I love the Revolution, and I have my eye on "Six" as my next purchase.

I have not been here for sometime been busy with that dirty word, work. I have ,however, been redesigning my bottom half...
The treads are in great shape, and as you can see this platform is a combination gear and chain drive system. The whole chassis is basically a transmission.
I removed the old circuit boards, and found that there are four motors that drive this platform.
Okay here I was having a little fun.
Here is a mock-up of the Robosapien and the Quad together.
I will have to raise the Robosapien up a bit, so when I raise the the tracks up they won't contact his arms.
I've never hacked any toys yet but I do have a robosapien. Either 1st or 2nd version. It is something that I've though about doing now that I know a bit more about electronics and robotics. So that's why I ask. I guess this is the first time I looked at a project and felt like I really understood it.
I dig your X-Men project(s). Keep it up.
Thank You!
I pulled the circuit boards, and left only the wires. I do intend on installing H-Bridges. Two of the motors control the direction forward, backwards, Left, and right . The other two motors control the raising and lowering of the front, and rear Tracks. There is not a lot of room in the chassis area, but should be enough for the H-Bridges to fit. The Robosapien I have, does have the IR & Ground on he circuit board, so following DJ's Tutorial I was able to control it with EZB.
I have mounted the motor controllers to the chassis, but I think I ill go back through the H-Bridge tutorial. @Rich I thank you for the tutorial on the H-Bridge connectivity.
I was planning on adding the upper torso of the Robosapien, but unfortunately I fried the Robosapien board, so I opted for another direction. I have a old Timex radio that I got off of Ebay that I thought might make a good head for Juggernaut.
