This is the first test experiment of the DAGU Wild Thumper 4WD RoboSavvy Pack.
The Wild Thumper is a popular Hobby 4x4 platform and is controlled by a powerful Arduino controller that can drive up to 2x15 Amps motors.
The Arduino comes with sample software allowing several types of interface/control: in this example we've connected an RC remote to the Platform but you can also send commands over a TTL serial line makign ideal for apps where you may want more CPU horsepower (such as coupling it with Gumstix or Roboard)
We also plan on adding some more sensors to the Robot to make it more autonomous and intelligent.
