More information
You will need:
1.- Materials:
  • 1 x big paper clip (or some wire)
  • 1 x plastic or wooden pearl.

You can make a long caster to prevent the front to tilt. 


Motor grip
More information
The shaft of the motor is the rim and the heatshrink is the tire. Since the robot rests on the shaft of the motor to move around, you will need some grip.

Option 1: You will need to shrink the heatshrink onto the motor shaft. We can use a heat gun, a lighter or the tip of your soldering iron.


You will need:
1.- Materials:
  • Heat shrink that will fit over the motor shaft.
2.- Tools:
  • Lighter
  • Scissors
Option 2: Water connectors.
