Does anyone know where I can get a wheel base or some other way of giving it mobility? I asked the the poeple at Mendelson Electronics and they said that the "B" kit was not compatible with the ARM AND BASE kit, and that they did not know where I could get the "A" kit for the Hero 2000. I would be willing to build my own, except I do not know where to start. Has anyone ever tried this? Any hints or suggestions on where I might be able to buy the "A" kit or plans to build a mobile platform for the robot will be appreciated. I saw a robot from Odetics with a 5 leg base. Does anyone know anything about this, or where I could contact them?
