Step 7. Attach your legs to the mounting plate
The mounting plate of the QuadBot chassis is the laser cut acrylic panel that you mount all your parts
on. Mount your left and right legs as shown in the photo.
NOTE: the rounded end is the rear of your robot. The hole in the center of the rear is where you will
mount your tail.
Step 8. Fit mounting spacers to pan servo.
The brass hex spacers used to mount the pan / tilt kit require a 3mm screw but the miniature servo
housing has a hole designed for a 2mm screw. Previously I have tried using a 3mm drill bit but it bites
into the plastic which can break the servo mounts and it can accidently dig into the servo cable.
Since the hole only needs to be opened by a small amount I found it was easier and safer to use my
phillips head screwdriver to ream out the holes on each side. Do not press to hard, you only need to
ream out each side of the hole by a small amount so that the 3mm screw can be inserted without too
much force.
