Here's a nice message from Jack Buffington resulting from our recent trip to Robolympics: "Hi. I just wanted to say thanks to Dave for tipping me off to those new motor/gearboxes that you are selling. He sold two of them to me on Saturday. On Sunday I won the ribbon-climber event using the one of […]
New Solarbotics Website
Dave Hrynkiw
December 11, 2003
Welcome to the new Solarbotics Website! You'll notice some substantial upgrades. We're on our own server, which means very quick and speedy surfing. The website is also totally re-written from scratch. This is a double-edge sword, as this means we're still working on re-porting over older documents, like the BEP applications.
Look! A search button! And check out the "Resources" tab - it summarizes all the documents, videos, pdfs, etc from the whole website. Give us a few days to finish repopulating them - we've got some pretty spanky additions to make! Oh, if you're looking for the old website in case if you're in need of the old BEP applications and the like, it's still available at http://oldsite.solarbotics.com
Feedback welcome!

Interesting Mini-sumo build
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).
Solarbotics has been operating for more than 25 years, bringing electronics know-how and supplies to both the electronics professional and hobbyist. We'll be happy to help you too!
