It's nearly time for the first Jersey Raspberry Jam and I'm taking along Thermobot. Thermobot Mk1 was taken apart for other projects so it was time to rebuild.
We have 3 HUGE tubs of lego, so it was pretty easy to source enough bits for a much better chassis:

It took several goes and a nasty burning smell before I finally got all the wires in the right places, which is why I drew the above, so it's easier next time.
The code is the same as before. Except that I haven't bothered to get it to graph the data this time.
With the new gearing, the robot moves 6 cm per rotation, so 3 cm per °C
