Additional infomation and notes.

While the chassis is shown with a 15mm center support, this can be moved in the design stage if you plan to free form the chassis your self. The Chassis is designed mainly as a skid steer robot, but later modules should include other drive options including tracks and Two motor drive with a pivot wheel. The current design would be fabricated from a range of materials including foam, wood or plastic.
These dimensions may change slightly and a half scale version may be produced as well, but if you want to build a smaller one then just scale the plans down.
