How to Build a Robot - The BeetleBot v2 ( Revisited )

Step 9 The BeetleBot v2 ( Revisited ) - Soldering the switchs ( part 1 )

Here we start soldering!

It is going to be really easy!

Check out the pictures! I have used a paper clip to make the middle connection.

I took some black electric tape to cover the aluminium plate. This was an aesthetic feature when taking pictures and it helps remove flash reflection.

i really need to know this....i tend to forget many principles or laws in physics, and i would like to ask you if there are any principles used for the robot..how many and what are they??
i would really appreciate this because i need this for my science fair( dont worry, im not going to take credit for "creating a unique robot")

Is soldering necessary, or can you hot glue?

[day-veed]

You MUST solder! Hot glue is not conductive (i.e. electricity can't pass through it) so it won't work. If you meant hot gluing it when they are touching to keep them together, I still wouldn't recommend it.
