A remote controlled RC rover powered by Arduino.
Hello!
It seems like you forgot to upload the KiCad PCB file! Please upload that.
In addition, please upload seperate .step files with all of the parts seperated for the controller and the actual rover. You don't need to add things, like the wheels or anything that isn't being 3D Printed. You have already made renders with those parts shown in the README. In addition, make sure that you unzip the CAD file respective to the rover. It is located under /CAD/Rover.
Once these changes are made, we will take another look, and if everything is good, we will approve! :D
Hello! Great work with this project. However, you need to add more to your ReadMe. Explain the different parts of the project (CAD, Firmware, and Schematic/PCB). Here is an example: https://github.com/qcoral/orpheuspad
Once you fix this, we will have another look, and if everything is good for next time, we will approve!
Finished the cad design for the rover!
Heyo! Your project looks really cool, but I can't approve your project until you make a model of the rover itself, not just its controller. I get that it can be hard to find models of some of the parts, but when that happens, you can find schematics online for their dimensions and model them yourself. Keep up the good work!
Finally finished the wiring diagram. Since I’m new to schematics and Kicad, I made some errors along the way that made the whole thing take longer than expected. However, it was all worth it. I plan to start the Arduino code next. Now that I’ve submitted for funding, I can hopefully show up with some live building devlogs soon :)
Worked on wiring diagram. Still in progress!
Hello! Please upload your design files and format your repo accordingly, you can use this repo as a reference if you're stuck. https://github.com/SharKingStudios/Riptide
Worked on an enclosure for the rover’s remote control. As a beginner at CAD, this was great practice. Can’t wait to see how this will evolve as I keep building!
Designed a first version for my rover. I decided that 4WD is worth the cost because I can control each wheel. There were so many sensor options this project could have taken, but for now I chose an ultrasonic and an IMU. For the physical remote controller I’m going to make a simple one with one joystick. Excited to see where this goes!
