New charge system.K9 Taking the Sun.




K9 now has his own solar charging system like Emy. The two large panels charge the batteries fairly quickly even in low light conditions. Other things that have been added are the for corner sliders. Because the new 24v power system is so powerful considering the relative low weight of the build I have fitted these sliders to protect the body work from tips and wheelies. The smaller real wheelie caster has been removed because it was getting in the way when K9 moved across rought surfaces. As for rough surfaces, he is now more than capable of traveling over  grass and rough ground due to a slightly higher ground clearance and the extra torque from the higher voltage motors, check out the ofroad video below. I also managed to find some better handles, which, even though they are not completely original do look much better than the round ones.
