Project list

I own two Hero Jr robots. One I received as a gift from a friend at work. He stumbled across this unit at (believe it or not!) a recycling center (dump). He knew that I was interested in the Hero robots so he grabbed it and gave it to me at work. This is the first Hero robot I have owned. It is not fully functional yet.

I purchased the second Hero Jr on ebay for $200. This unit came with the remote control, several cartridges, and battery charger. I need to purchase new batteries for them both. I figured I could get one functional by using components from both. I have also purchased some manuals and circuit diagrams off of ebay for the Hero Jr.

Hero Jr Robot #2

I own one Hero One Robot. I do have the arm, but, do not have the remote control or any manuals/schematics yet. I do know where to get them though.
