I reverted to the black buckets as the orange ones tend to delaminate at speed.
Had a bit more time to bend things around, much prefer the new look and trying to work out some brackets for the etek and how it would all go together if made in steel with access to the relevant parts for work and repairs.

First pass of a multi-bot, just a L298N dual motor controller for £4, a rasp pi zero on wifi and a 4wd chassis with a sonar distance detector. Will need to work out a FOE/FOF detector! Have micro motors and a mini LIPO pack on order for the weekend as the end design will be 2wd with a pointy tail.. Quite like the idea of a mini swarm powered with arduino to hunt and follow anything that moves. Trick will be to get the cost down with ebay parts, £5 for a pair of motors, £5 for a LIPO, home made hubs and flappy wheg wheels. Keep the cost down to about £25 so as to deploy at least 10 of them
