New user, new robot

Hi all,

I ordered the B-Robot EVO 2 end of last week, received it here in south of France on monday this week.

I needed approximately one hour to build it and I immediately realized that the wheels were badly printed. The center was plain circular instead of D shaped. For that reason the robot could not stand.

I thus ordered a set of wheels from Pololu with the adapters on tuesday night, received today by Fedex, installed in 5 minutes and it worked like a charm immediately.

The adapters : https://www.pololu.com/product/2673

I cannot send a video because I played like a kid and my nimh batteries are recharging now ... I will tomorrow.

I realized that the arm servo is a bit weak and that it cannot lift the bot on the ground, but it does on my desk with a glassy surface...
I'll check for a stronger servo, if it is not possible to feed this one with 6 V ?

Kudos to JJrobots team ! That's an impressive and fast robot.
