M y bra ve robot boi has tested my patience this week.

I get him all kitted out with a new fisheye camera, double the battery capacity, and a swish new set of headlights... and twenty minutes before deployment, the GPS dies.

I had to rush around whipping up a new solution which, pray for the boi, works well tonight.

We’re trying to double our previous runs through the country town, aiming to get over the bridge, out of dodge, for a total of 1.6km driving tonight.

We’re on twitch.tv/whatuptkhere at 11PM ACST. Wish us luck.

Gdamnit....I’ll be off doing my computer repair work side gig then! Guess I’ll have to watch the Youtube video or the stream on Twitch, but I won’t be able to join live again! :(

Good luck!

Yay! I think I might’ve seen this already, was it the one that was already up on Twitch? Looking forward to the next stream! :D

I imagine a lot more en gineering has been done to replace those dodgy relays?
