Electronics Panel

Next i needed somethin to mount the electronics too. I had a big chunk of delrin and cut it to size. I decided to make a folding electronics panel and mount it to the door. This way it it will fold out and provide easy access to both sides of the panel.


Heres a vid of how it folds out.




Testing the electronics.

Battery Mounting

We'll since i got legs on this little guy i figure he needs some power. I planned to go 2-3-2 at some point and ordered a frame upgrade to do so... However I wanna get him done before holloween. So i decided to go with an optima blue top batter.... HEAVY but as many say i wont have to worry about running out of juice.

The first prob is i didnt have a way to mount it. My frame had the 3 slots for the smaller sla batteries. No worries pulled out the jig saw and cut out a new plate to fit the optima. I also sanded off the lip on the bottom of the battery.


Here is is with the battery inserted.
