I know there is a mention of the Sharp GP2D12 in the tutorials but it seems I cannot source this in the UK. I can find the Sharp GP2Y0A41SK0F though, would this work?

Love My New Roli, But A Question?
I recently got a Roli for myself and my kids to play with. They (and I) love it. One question, though. When driving around the drive makes a loud clicking noise, and the tracks seem to slip a lot. Is there any way to tighten them up and/or reduce/remove the clicking noise? Thanks Tom
