Was a long wait for shaft couplers and mounting hardware, but it’s in and mounted. Rover II has it’s feet. Gave it a very brief road test and it rolls, but will need to construct the bumper before any serious seaworthiness testing can start.
- Encoder Covers
Update (2018-04-12): The above shows the two 3D printed covers that I designed with Tinker Cad and printed off at the Ottawa Public Library at their Imagine Space. While the motors did have plastic covers over the metal housings, there was nothing to protect the encoders.
In the last and next pic you can see that I’ve added a flame sensor to the top of the IR sensor assembly.
