I posted this in the wrong section I guess, but here is a link to my newest bot - RoboRAD. I am combining a RAD 2.0 base and a robosapien.

Thanks Guys! Those speakers are all over ebay. Today I am working on fitting some more parts, then hopefully paint and final installation.

So I enlarged the cup holder to fit my plasma ball and cut out the center drop down where the RAD torso sat. THis was to make room for stuff "under the hood" and prepare for a platform to mount my Robosapien torso to.

Then I made a mounting platform out of ABS and attached that to the top.

This is where the Robosapien is going to be mounted to the platform

Now I have to cut out for the Laser Light Show, then I can do my bondo fill work. Here is a small preview of the laser show.

On the window: Once I get it mounted I will post some video - it pulses to the music! Boogie Boogie.

Epoxy like this will fill holes and adhere your speakers in place.

Little bit of progress today. I made the cut out to mount my mini laser light show in the rear of the bot. Here it is in place along with the speakers.

Got a little fine tuning to do but it sits pretty well in the opening and perfect between the speakers.

Very cool dude. I wonder how your gonna fit everything.... robo backpack? Build onto the back of the base? Or make a riser between the bottom and top of the base to fit batteries and ezb?

#54  

The motor controller will fit under the robosapian mounting plate and the battery will fit fine under the hood laying on it's side. As for the EZ-B it will be mounted to the back of the Robosapien (see DJs bot). So it is all gonna fit but very tight.

@Bret, If its cramped for space, don't forget to keep a bit of airflow over the heat sinks for good measure. Even a little is better than none.

And plenty is the best.... sounds like fans and vent holes may be in order.
