Assembling

Step 0: Perform the previous assembly

To assembly Cube3 it is necessary to first build the following parts:

  1. Build Minicube-I
  2. Build one MY1

Step 1: Screw the module to Minicube-I

1) Minicube-I, one MY1 module and 4 bolts and nuts (Click to enlarge)
2) Screwing the MY1 module to the Minicube-I robot (Click to enlarge)
3) Minicube-I is screwed to the MY1 module (Click to enlarge)
4) The cube3 robot is ready (Click to enlarge)

Step 2: Connect the servo to the Skycube board

Connect the module's servo to the Skycube board. It can be connected to any of the free 3-pin headers
