Figure 2. Figure 3. Step 3. Time to install the motors. Be sure the use the 3mm x 6mm screws, they're the shiny ones with the Phillips head. 12 x Figure 4. Step 4. Solder the cap across the terminals as shown. Make sure you put the red to (+) and the black to (-). This will make wiring the speed controllers easier later on. Use at least 20 awg stranded wire and cut to a length of about 6". Figure 5. Figure 6.

Step 5. Align the two halves of the robot as shown and install the bottom panel. Now the robot will start to take shape. 6x Figure 7. Step 6. Install the 1" spacers into the top panel using 6 of the 4-40 x 3/8 screws. The screws go in from the back and protrude from the "good" side. 6x Figure 8. Step 7. Install the lid onto the robot using 6 of the 4-40 x 3/8 screws. 6x Figure 9.

Step 8. Install the top onto the robot using 6 of the 4-40 x 3/8 screws. 6x Figure 10. Step 9. Install the hubs. First put the set screw into the plastic hub. Adjust the hubs so they are about 1/4" from the side panel. Then torque it down tight. Figure 11. Step 10. Install the wheels onto the hubs using 2 of the 5-40 x 3/8 screws per wheel. 8x Figure 12.

Step 11. Install the front scoop mount plate as shown. Use 4 of the 4-40 x 3/8 screws. Depending on how you configure your scoop you may need to reinforce this, or make another from aluminum using this as a template. 4x Figure 13. Step 12. Install the fenders as shown. 8x Figure 14. Step 13. Here is a simple way of wiring the drive system. Crimp the connectors and install them as shown. In the middle is a mating connector for the 7.2vdc and 8.4vdc batteries.

Step 14. If you are using the SP-560 speed controllers cut off the connectors and install the stake-on connectors as shown. I also remove the power switch and hardwire them on. Use foam double sided tape to mount the controllers inside the body. If you follow the color code the motor rotation direction should be correct. Figure 16. Figure 17. Remote control The speed controllers provide the power for the RC receiver.
