Working with Rover 5 and the top plate

Helping hand is configured as low as possible...

...low enough to keep a card in position over a 10 standoff

Tape over reserved holes, these are for mounting on the Rover

Now basically just move and twist whatever you want to mount and
have something that shines from behind so the holes will light up.
Tape will cover holes you can't use! 

So here's a motor controller, an Uno,a Mega and the whole baseblate + breadboard
mounted on a Rover 5

Android Mega ADK test and design work concept

Here's some stills from booting up the CM9 modded S2 with an DFrobot Android Mega ADK (2560)

Haven't tested it yet, just installed the driver so far.
It appears to work and blinks green on boot and reset.

Bad DFrobot 2A Dual Controller

When it was time to mount find a place to mount the spacers to attach my new 2nd controller, I discover it's a defect one that is cleary thrown together in a hurry. I have mailed my retailer for a response :D

All the explainations are on the album on http://imgur.com/a/M1Uh4

The good news is that some guy on the sparkfun forum says i'm probably right on the wiring setup as long as the controllers can take the required 2.5A. These are rated for 2A but my retailer recommended me these. I have already ordered the Dagu board. When that arrives, I have other plans for these controllers. (Probably for eye/sensor array arms or grabbing mechanisms ?)
