How can I get a little more rolling speed out Boe-Bot. I don''''t want a indy racer, but it puts me to sleep. It seems to have plenty of power as it spins it wheels when stuck.
Different wheel servos?
Thanks
I've been working on something I call a Scarecrow platform, Which is not directly related to the BOE-BOT.
I think that a simple test of what the BOE-BOT can do, would be to write a very simplistic program that
drives the BOE-BOT as fast as it can go in a straight line.
If the BOE-BOT travels at a satisfactory speed when it is told to go in One Direction as fast as it can,
Your problem may be in the program logic and not in the capability of the BOE-BOT.
My Scarecrow platform runs pretty slow, but I've determined that my problems with speed and control have more to do
with my control logic than the actual capability of my Platform.

Easiest way to go slightly faster is to add 1 more AA battery for 7.5V to the servo. Higher voltage may damage it.

That's just my two cents worth.
