A lot has changed since the last build picture but I just recently decided to pick back up the project and finish some of the things I started.

 Video will be published 7/7 at 11:00

Things I need to finish are the charging system and I have a new battery setup because the last one was really heavy and was hard on the servos for the wheels. I am still looking for a better drive system too. This is slow and noisy.

Right on @nx2overide!

Looks like Weeko is coming together nicely and you definitely have the juice to motor around for a while :)

Thanks for sharing, I look forward to seeing how it turns out!

nx2overide, Welcome to the community. Weeko is looking pretty good for your first robot. It resembles a Turtlebot.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice start. Looks like a fun project. I really like the prototype approach you're taking. I'm sure you'll really enjoy learning and building. There's loads of help here. Just ask. Keep us up to date as you progress. ;)

Thanks everyone!, I enjoy seeing your ideas and appreciate any help I find on the forum. Most of my questions were already answered by other people in the community.

I have been doing a little work with the front using Aluminum because I am trying to keep the weight down. User-inserted image
