Wow - the new design of the site and forum look great. I haven't been on in quite some time, I left the ground (Biped, Hexwalker and rovers) for the sky - very addictive. Anyway I worked with the Ardupilot board on my Minds-I 6 wheeled platform but have always wanted a more versatile tank tread and terrain crawling machine.

Just found this guy posted on the DIYDrone site and decided to back the chassis kit - I wanna work on pulling all the electronics together I have the mini APM, PixHawk and Navio (add on for Raspberry Pi) control board to work with and run the APM:Rover

My goal is to work on some computer vision combined with sensors, possibly LiDAR for avoidance and SLAM
