Ok so it works so now printing full half

Hey! The perfboard version works! So now i did the model of the robot that might be named Chickbot finally instead of Overbot…anyway it’s not finished the model, now printing a test of it

😭 😭 😭 POV: you decide to make all on a perfboard because 1. 3 ESP32 are dead 2. two versions of your custom PCB don’t work 3. you become crazy … then you decide to make all on a perfboard 1. you start doing it 2. you solder for a week and then … you finish … but one encoder doesn’t want to work you try to fix it but then nothing works on bus 0 T_T this becomes very very frustrating 😭 https://youtube.com/shorts/Bv5i3sjUlMk?si=PIeCnRF1LWGG5C7_

Oh yeah i’m back buddy and the PCB is almost done! just the encoders to wire and then…wohoo

Again unsoldering everithing from the PCB 😭because the ESP32 doens’t want to boot so i decided to let go these 💩PCB’s and make all on a perf board…i hope it will work🙏

Fixed some wiring…now charging the battery

Ok ok so finished the body and put it to print…i also changed the robot name from QuadCat to Overbot because it doesn’t look like a cat anymore and it’s kinda over scoped this project so that’s why Overbot :D

The odd frame is almost done but now i have to go so i will finish later

So i’m at a place where i don’t have a 3D printer but i have a laptop so i was making the components that i have in the physical life into fusion 360 that i can see more how to make the shell and i also decided to make just a odd frame for now and then make the beatuiful stuff…i didn’t have time to make the frame T-T so i will finish it tomorrow

Hi after a long time :D anyway the ESP32 that i destroy due to a stupid mistake a new has finally arrived so i started soldering all permanently…hope it’s not a mistake T_T and will finish tomorrow because now i’m kinda tired and i start making stupid mistakes 😅

Thank you for the great decision of Hack club and if you guys want to continue following my self balancing robot go to> https://stardance.hackclub.com/projects/65148

fixed the body and sending to the printer to print it again and i will enjoy two hours changing the filament for color T_T i don’t have the AMS lite thingy XD

finished the body now printing and let’s hope it works :D

The new PCB arrived so i was soldering for 2hrs then started making the motors work and after 2hrs i finally managed to make work one then after 1hr i found out that in1 was swapped with EN in the code so that’s why it wasn’t working then made work the servos which worked immediately then made run motors and servos at the same time which worked so wonderful! then started finishing the body-shell which i will finish tomorrow and send to the printer and then i will assemble all and solder all permanently :D hyped for tomorrow

I made a completely new design(why? check out previous posts)…it’s kinda a box which is not what i wanted but it looks good even not finished :D Btw reminds me of a star-wars robot it wasn’t intentional…still waiting for the new PCB fingers crossed that it arrives before the end of Stardance

So i’m still making the body and still thinking of how to put the laser sensor at the front that it doesn’t look odd…if you have any ideas then please feel free to tell me in comments :D (this design at the base wasn’t thought that there will be a laser sensor)

Thinking about how to implement the laser sensors into the body-shell design that it isn’t odd and fixing some stuff in Fusion. I also made a small wooden table next to my desk that i can have more place for my projects. Still waiting for the v2.0 PCB and idk if i will have time to finish this robot before the end of stardance but at least i think i will have a working PCB which is the main thing of the robot

I unsoldered everything and unplugged. Now waiting that the new PCB v2.0 arrives—–––> if you want to know more: https://youtu.be/JHu94_pjOXo

After too much problems making the motor want to spin and finding other problems i decided to make a new PCB with all the stuff fixed and reviewed hundreds of times —––> if you want to know more: https://youtu.be/JHu94_pjOXo
