A project log for MonkeyBot V2 - 3 servo climbing robot

This is a 3 servo, Arduino Nano controlled robot that climbs pegs on a board.

Version 2 MonkeyBot with standard size robot servos and aluminum brackets. Left arm shorter than right so used spacer. Left arm programming different than right arm. Left arm riskier of slipping off peg but smoother. Right arm more stop action but securely grasps peg by pulling in and then down.

Next will attach battery packs to robot. Should have plenty of beef to carry 3000 mAh battery and 9volt for Nano.

Need to replace wooden spacer on left hand with something flexible to keep torquing of servos when pull/pushing on pegs to a minimum.

Onward and upward.
