BOE bot wheels and servos

Hi,

I own an older version of the BOE bot (not the current one that Parallax sells). I'm planning on buying two new servos for my bot, and I wanted to make sure that the continuous rotation servos Parallax sells will work with my wheels. I'm planning on buying 2 of these servos:

My BOE bot wheels can be seen in the picture that is attached to this message; they have 4 curved holes in them rather than the multiple small oval-shaped holes in the new wheels. Does anyone know if the splines on the servos I gave the link to above will indeed fit with my old wheels?

Thanks,

Jason

    Jason,

    · Yes, the servos will work with the older wheels.· Same brands usually use the same spline/spindle on the servo.

    They will fit in the old frame too, right? Is the new frame the same as the old one?

    Thanks,

    Jason

    Jason,

    ·· Yes, the servos are pretty much standard in size, so, you'll be alright.· smilewinkgrin.gif
