This kit is intended to be the base platform for your education into robotics. Please take the opportunity
to expand your robot to do many more functions.
Additions you can do:
Mount a 9G servo between Level 3 and Level 4 for controlling an ink Pen or Marker to go UP
and Down.
Mount a standard servo or 9G servo at Level 4 ... for whatever you want.
Use the extra mount areas for the HC-04 BlueTooth, ESP 8266 Wifi, Accelerometers,
Gyroscopes, ..etc.
Mount a voltage regulator for powering the L298 motor controller. This means that friendly
competitions become about who has the best code, not about who has the best charged batteries.
Mount encoder wheels and quadrature opto-isolators to track your wheel movement.
