TEST COURSE!!
ARGHHH for the test course, all you need is 2 rungs. at least to
figure out the basics. go to canadian tire or some such and get a few
bits of copper pie or dowel. the in time once you have the basics works
out you can build a full course.
the basics are the hard part. will you go with an active claw (a hand
that grips), or a passive claw. (a hook)
each have there good and bad points. I'm still trying with just a hook,
but it puts more work into the arm motion. my solution is MORE MOTORS.
Sure that fine, until you try to power up the beast.
the crane and walkers are GREAT! now build a monkey!!!!
