Robova biuld

2007-12-23T11:21:22+01:00

In my opinion you should have a try with building your robonova. When I bought mine some seven months ago, I was a little worried when I saw all those brackets, motors and the fact that I know nothing about electronics I thought is going to be a problem. BUT believe me I don't regret the time it took me to build it (it took me some 4 days working 2.5 hours each day). Building your robot helps you understand how things are connected together and when it comes to add ons - sensors, grippers and other stuff, you can do your own updates without anyone helping you. I'm sure you can do this. If I did it then anyone can do it - what I suggest is to take it easy, do not rush and look in this forum - there are many hints and tips which you will surely find useful.

Good luck

Charles

not a toy

You’re quite correct it’s not a toy and I should have a go, and fully expect to learn some programing. however, it really gets to me when you pay out and what you get doesn’t work. I may have done the same as you, burnt out the board, it’s an expensive lesson if I have and it becomes clear that this is my fault/problem. I however did not see any where in the manual where it said not to use while on charge. also, under the sale of goods act the purchase should work and a redress process in place. The person at robosavvy also said he did not think that this was my problem and that I should be able to use it while plugged in.
The main reason why I am happy to pay out, is it is nearly Christmas and I really wanted it up and running by then.

Earn some hard cash £100

You'd betteer keep your cash and try to solve the problem by yourself. This kind of robot is not a toy, you 'll surely have trouble with it in the future and i hope you won't spend 100£ for any problem you meet. When i built mine, i burnt the controller by turning it on while charging, and i had to buy a new one. I had to spend 200€ for that but i built my robot myself. Every problem you encounter is an occasion to improve your knowledge so keep trying to solve your problem and don't hesitate to ask.

I have a robo nova, nearly built, some problems with charging. after chatting to robosavvy they firmly suggest i search the forums etc for all the answers, submit this and that. All this takes time.

I would love to pay someone hard cash to complete my robonova and have it fully working for me.
if you would like to earn a £100 let me know.
I live in Basingstoke, Hampshire, UK
