Adabot has always wanted to join the circus -- and you can help Adabot fulfill this dream by building a tightrope riding, balanced unicycle bot!
This project uses the Circuit Playground Express for brains, and the Crickit platform to provide the power to the gearbox DC motor.
You'll make a cardboard chassis, frame, and armature, then dress it up with Adabot costuming.
or, you can use the yellow TT motor, it can't go quite as slow, but works well, too!
Materials
In addition to the parts above you'll need
- corrugated cardboard
- hobby knife or scissors
- small Philips screwdriver
- string or cord
- brass paper fastener
- white glue or hot melt glue and a glue gun
- two M2.5 x 12mm screws and nuts
- an M3 x 8mm screw
- a toothpick
For the Adabot costuming overlay, you'll need either a color printer and some thick printer paper, or cardstock in light blue, royal blue, white, and black to make the cutout layered version designed by the Ruiz brothers.
