The saga continues......................

Yesterday, the Li-Po battery arrived complete with charger. The charger is the expensive part as it will be able to charge many different types of battery pack in years to come. The battery is fairly powerful but very small and light. I await with baited breath the very small self tapping screws and the solvent to weld the plastic as that will enable me to finish the mechanical side of the build. Then it's over to the electronic stuff. I already have a very simple script to run the servos continuously and that will do perfectly for testing. Later, when the remote control parts arrive, I will interface the receiver directly to the Arduino and begin to set up the remote and autonomous systems in harmony.
