Rover Updates 2-9-15

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After a Long Lunch and a stressed-out flex, the result was the first rover prototype. It wasn't much, just a LittleBits Base Board supported by four wheels. But it was the first prototype of the rover-in-progress.  Sure, it was boring, uncontrollable, and always turned to the right. But it was just version 0.0. Next up would be adding treads, remote controls, and headlights to make a real all-terrain rover. And the LittleBits Base Boards are terrible! It took forever just to get the motors on the mounting boards! But now we know it can support it's own weight, and likely more. So just wait for new features!
