This is a repository for "Cerberus", our robot that won the folkrace competition of Robotex Cyprus 2026. It uses a feather rp-2040 with a motor control featherwing as its brains as well as featuring meccanum wheels that enable it to better evade obstacles.

The repo includes the code and the fritzing wiring diagram.

For the chassis one can use any generic 4 motor chassis. The motors I used were the classic yellow tt motors, but any kind of dc motors could be used.
|
|
|
|
I specifically used a modified version of the chassis made for MechMaven (https://www.instructables.com/MechaMaven-the-Educational-Robot-Explorer/), by earldanielph on instructables. I simply cut it down to fit the competition size guidelines.

|
|
The aforementioned was used only as a carriage for the motors, with the rest of the chassis being made of two layers of coroplast to hold the microcontroller, sensors and batteries.

For instructions on how to build the robot, I have posted writeups on instructables and hackster:
