Curiosity can drive!

---------News---------
I've built the suspension with six wheels driven by two large motors and a steering mechanism controlled by two medium motors. The robot drives pretty much stable and steers very good.
Stop reading- here are the pictures ;)

New version of Curiosity

I've already announced in the previous post that my Curiosity now has two EV3s inside.

Here some the pictures:










Sponsored Box

Hello community,

I've to tell you very good news!

The MCP bazmarc sponsored me many useful parts with them I nearly can finish my Curiosity project, I only need some gears now. In the box was a beautiful t-shirt, I will wear it in my next videos and I'm very proud to be a 'Robot Mak3r'. After many parts I found an EV3 with motors and sensors so I decided to replace my NXT with this EV3. There also were selfmade stickers and many EV3 stickersheets.

I'm very happy to announce this and many thanks to bazmarc

Hello Guys,

sorry for writing so late. I'm working on Curiosity's suspension but it's very difficult to spread the axles right that they work for steering and driving. That's why I need (I'm afraid so!) buying more parts (like gears or beams) and I have to tell you that I'm maybe going to finish my project till December. I hope you understand this and don't be sad ;)
