We finally have motion! After charging the batteries for the receiver and controller, we were able to move our robot around the classroom. Since we have an all wheel drive system similar to a tank, we can go forwards, backwards, and turn left and right all with just the two motors. To go forward, the operator pushes both joysticks forward. To go backward, the operator pushes both joysticks backward. To turn left, the operator pushes the left joystick backward and the right joystick forward. To turn right, the operator does the opposite. It is simply really.
We are now very eager to create the camera arm and attach the camera to the robot as well as the claw and scoop. Hopefully, we will be finished with construction within a few weeks.
