CERES MK2: Devlog 14

What’s New: The robot has been assembled, and the electronics have been all wired up! I’ve attached a video of the gearbox working below. In the next devlog, ill show a video of the entire robot. The issue regarding the gears slipping has been resolved with the new gears that I’ve designed.

The main issue now is that the wheels themselves are slipping on the axle. I’m realizing now that I should have gone with a hexagonal axle instead of a circular one like I have. I’ll have to re-design the wheels so that they properly grip these axles

What’s Next: The next step is program the robot to turn, as it can already go forward and backwards, and then also re-design the wheels so that they stop slipping when the motors are running.
