MSE 6 REPAIR DROID ready :)
Added 2025-02-12 18:24:41 +0000 UTCThe droid update is finally complete and you can download it ! I’ll take a moment to go through all the updates and what's included:
Project Re-release – The project now includes two versions:
Android-controlled version: Uses an ESP32 with custom code that you can upload and that allows you to drive the droid via your android phone.
RC version: Uses standard RC components—just install them, and you're good to go! No coding required.
Performance Differences – The RC version is slightly faster, can carry more weight, and allows simultaneous driving and steering.
Power Source – The RC version uses different batteries compared to the Arduino-controlled version.
Build Instructions – Each folder contains a step-by-step guide based on the version you choose to build (the RC version is much easier). Links to purchase the required parts are also included.
Build Video – There's a build video for the Android version, but you can also use it for the RC version—just ignore the minor differences.
And that’s about it! I went with the RC approach because I think it’ll be a great fit for many of my future builds :)

i'm so annoyed they keep changing the links all the time, the full name is " ESC Brush Electronic Motor Speed Controller 30A 4-8V Mini Brushed " if you need to look it up on other pages, but here is the new aliexpress link as well https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005017679548.html . keep in mind if you are in US, you have to use the US version of aliexpress

2025-09-02 07:30:35 +0000 UTCWhat speed controller does this use for the RC version? The link in the documentation isn't valid any longer.

2025-02-23 04:50:44 +0000 UTCThat’s all right we’ll just have to insert some negative spaces and hollow it out ourselves. Shouldn’t be too hard.

2025-02-20 21:52:14 +0000 UTCthank you , but i'm afraid there will be no updates after this one :( at least none planned for now :D
Marko Makaj
2025-02-20 21:47:22 +0000 UTCThis is amazing! If this ever gets updated again would it be possible to get a version without the spots for the battery box & servo? just an empty void that my students can fit the lego Technics Motor Kit into?

2025-02-20 21:19:47 +0000 UTCYou are the man!!!! Thanks Marko!

2025-02-16 16:36:44 +0000 UTCit should be a slightsly smaller version , i took references from games, but from my understanding the size varie. if you happen to have a source on the sizing we can compare the scale
Marko Makaj
2025-02-14 14:21:22 +0000 UTCI am super stoked for this. Is it scaled to screen accurate?

2025-02-14 14:16:18 +0000 UTCExcellent! Gonna let it ride!

2025-02-12 22:31:08 +0000 UTCi printed it without support , its a bit stringy, but not bad actually, and its on the inside so its not visible , but i can confimr it is not needed :)
Marko Makaj
2025-02-12 22:28:58 +0000 UTCDoes the top shell need supports? Was getting ready to throw air through it it didn’t have any, just wondering before I give it a go.

2025-02-12 21:58:59 +0000 UTCyup, my mistake, sorry, just added it , hit refresh and download the 04 parts list and hardware :)
Marko Makaj
2025-02-12 19:33:10 +0000 UTCsorry, i dont know whats wrong with me today :D haha, fixed that as well :D
Marko Makaj
2025-02-12 19:32:27 +0000 UTCI see the motor controller and the remote control you used now but still no reference to the DC motor you used.
Tim Good
2025-02-12 19:26:30 +0000 UTCOne more quick question...I don't see the motor model listed in the parts list. I recognize it as a 5840-555 type motor but I just want to be sure that's the one you used and what RPM you got for it.
Tim Good
2025-02-12 18:54:43 +0000 UTCYeah✨

2025-02-12 18:50:13 +0000 UTCHuge improvement, awesome!

2025-02-12 18:47:12 +0000 UTCall fixed, my mistake, uploaded the wrong one, but its all good now :D
Marko Makaj
2025-02-12 18:46:50 +0000 UTCI don’t see any parts list for the RC version. The parts list in that folder still shows breadboards and no references to the rc receiver/controller or dc motor you used. Thanks!🙏

2025-02-12 18:40:47 +0000 UTCMy bad! I spotted that right after I posted. Thank you!
