Beest with Gripper (Robert)

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2216204
Used original print parts however the assembly is totally changed - I used carbon fiber rods instead of threaded steel rods, reduced amount of nuts to minimum as well as the weight, added ultrasonic sensor and the gripper from yisparyan https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:715525
The brain is Arduino Uno + USB Host Shield for the WII Pro Controller + L289D on a prototype shield as DC motors controller. Throttle and steering are on left joy of the wii pro controller (X,Y) and the gripper is on right joy control - sharing the code
Tons of fun.

Ultrasonic is not programed yet - the idea is to add a protection from hitting walls while remote controlled and if too close to obstacle will produce a vibration on the Wii Controller and stop, maybe even back up couple steps will see
