This mini-sumo design by Jeremy Bloyd-Peshkin features our wheels, and one of our favourite building materials, Sintra. We can't laser-cut sintra (PVC=bad stuff when burned), but milling it works well, as this builder shows. The asymmetric motor layout works, as proven by this contest-winning design (scroll to the bottom of the page).
New Product: Arduino WiFi Shield and Dis...
Solar botics
October 12, 2012
The lonely product in the long-time-ago previous product post has filed a complaint to the INPDL (International New Product Defendant League) against having to represent the Friday Product Post by itself for an entire month. We therefore had to comply by bringing in some new stock to switch out. So here's an Arduino WiFi Shield in the company of five strikingly similar-looking MaxSonar distance sensors. Be careful not to confuse them, they might get really upset.

Here, now all our venerable products are content that you gave them your undivided and thorough attention, and no doubt properly inspected their descriptions. All that is left to do is to memorize all their first, last and middle names (and the SKUs of course) to address them properly in order to make them completely happy. Then you can go enjoy the sun, or whatever meteorological conditions you are currently in. Meeting dismissed!

Slightly larger than the other metal gearhead series (GM11-14), and with a larger motor, this 35:1 beasty looks like a good contender for building mini-sumos or other small, speed-hungry robots! But be warned: It is a bit strange. The gearhead is mounted askew to the motor, […]
