    Small recommendation on the microswitches idea: if you're going to do that, I'd recommend commissioning a 3D printed holder for those, as well as to insulate the connectors. I attempted to use the switches with my model, but just found them too fiddly in the end, and so used an ESC instead.

    Thanks I will look at what I can do to fix them firmly.y

    My biggest concern at this point is weight. When I weighed it last it was 11.5kg, without battery or any other electrics or the front ramp and hinge. This is a problem but not insurmountable.

    Chain drive is fitted, linear actuator is fitted. I installed a 12-24v led in rear for "alive/powered" indicator.

    I will now continue to work on electronics. Before looking for ways to lose weight from the body.

    Possibilities include:
    Drilling holes in floor
    Drilling holes in frames
    Drilling holes in sides
    Smaller battery
    Lightening the wheels
    Smaller battery
