Check out this awesome Jeep Manual made by students on our FIRST Robotics Team! We just held a Community Build and Hackathon where 7 of these jeeps were built. They worked great and they have a handy remote. I’ll put pictures and links to videos on the Build Showcase a little later, but thought I would post the manual. Please feel free to provide feedback!
Special thanks to students: Aiden Jacobs, George Whitehill, and Aasim Hawa for putting this together.
Hi! Do you happen to have the dimensions for the laser-cut steering wheel mount? Would the SVG linked on your Maserati build work for the Jeep as well?
Do you know what size child would be able to fit into this car? I am looking into adapting a car for a 5 year old boy who is about 46 pounds and 42 inches tall. Would he have enough space?
Awesome manual! I just wanted to mention that the pedal wire adaptation can make use of the pedal-to-jack drop-in replacement board, which we’ve found very useful in our builds. It’s a simple installation and avoids the need to splice any wires.
Hi- our FRC Robotics team- WormGear Warriors 8620 is starting their first car. We are brand new at this. How do we purchase the pedal? This seems like a great way to start!
I’m glad to hear you’re starting your own builds—that’s exciting!
I’d be happy to provide you with some boards. I don’t sell them, but if you’re able to cover the shipping costs, I can send a batch to help you get started. If you end up needing a larger quantity, we can discuss covering the assembly costs at that point.
