Description
This is the next iteration of my original sumobot design.
A few changes:
* It's made from three pieces, not one
*It uses two solarbotics GM8 gear motors (actually the pololu 120:1 equivalent), instead of continuous servos
* It works.
I'm really happy with how it came out.
**UPDATE**
I've updated the files since I first posted this thing. They're pretty small tweaks but they really help when trying to wire up the whole thing and hold down the electronics.
I've posted a video of it in action. It still has no opponent sensing/detection but it's staying within the white space perfectly. See it here:

Stay tuned for thorough instructions/code and possibly a chassis kit for sale at botmade.etsy.com

Have you considered altering the 90 degree overhangs to be more printer-friendly? And possibly teardrop shaped holes to avoid droop?
