I’ve now built 3 or 4 complete quad A1 style robots depending upon how you look at it. Each was somewhat of a one-off, incrementally modified over time as I discovered failure modes and improved the design. Before starting to serially build quad A1 style robots, I wanted to get a better understanding of how much actually goes into making one. The quad A1 has a fair number of sub-assemblies, custom PCBs, harnesses, and assembly steps that go into its production. During previous builds, I kept running into problems where I would run out of some component, fastener, or raw material unexpectedly, then have to wait for its lead time before I could continue.
