Motor Test

This doesn't really count as a full blog post, but this is a video of a motor test that I conducted:




As you can see from this video the motors function very well and should work well on the robot!

Coronavirus update

Coronavirus update  Today we got some really sad news as PiWars was decided to be postponed to a later date. Despite this being unfortunate, it was definitely a well thought out choice and was made for good reasons.  However...... This could also be pretty useful as well because this means that I get (a lot) more time to work on my robot and further develop it. Below is a to-do list of my new ideas: - Get the flywheel mechanism working ASAP - Tweak all my code and do further testing - Work on further autonomous code (to gain more points) I am very excited to accomplish these goals!

Power Source (finally solved!)

Power Source Previously I had been using AA alkaline batteries, yet after asking around on a few forums, I realised that this was a terrible idea. The problem was that I had lots of 8 * AA battery holders, yet if I were to use the normal rechargeable batteries (which are 1.2V), it would not be enough to power both my pi and my motor controller. Instead, I found out about these new type of batteries produced by a brand named KENTLI. Below is a picture of the product:   Unlike other rechargeables, these actually are 1.5V. Hence I bought 8 of these and now the problem is solved!
