Cor - it's been a while since I started this!

I got all distracted by Christmas, and a few antweight compos, and some doubt about whether I wanted to still make my BW a melonbot after the AW version was such a PITA to construct. However, the AW version was lots of fun to drive, and didn't do too badly at its last event, so melonbot it is!

Since my last update, I've acquired some fingertech wheels, motor mounts, a receiver, BEC, and various HDPE sheets. I spent the last couple of nights cutting and crimping the wires so that the components are all easily swappable. Once I've soldered the power distribution board (fancypants name for some veroboard covered in JST connectors), which I'll be doing tonight, it'll be ready for a test run on a sheet of plywood.

I'm pondering applying to Bugglebots with this (they must have sooooo many entries to sift through!), but that means I'm gonna have to spend time making a bloomin CAD. I wonder if I can get away with scaling up an antweight CAD.. :P
