Pandorabots

@DJ, with the next release of ARC would you consider changing the weblink for the Pandorbots in the Pandorbot control to : https://www.pandorabots.com/botmaster/en/home because from there you can still access the old AIM1.0 bots and create new accounts and build new bots? While the weblink: https://www.pandorabots.com/ directs you to their newer...

Onboard Computer

I am thinking about putting a mini computer on my robot to run ARC software. I have been looking at the Minix Z8350-4. It is 64 bit and runs windows 10 pro software. It would connect with EZ4 just like a laptop. Has anyone done this before? Are there protential problem?
