Great idea with the carpet gripper.

slew drive finally in place, used an old car trailer hub we had lieing around stands a bit tall but didnt pay for it so cant complain really, slew motor is fitted temporary, the shaft needs shortening so it fits better





some video testing the extra weight it now weighs 25kg, might want to turn the sound down a bit camera picks up alot of background noise

Looks good. What did you scoop the gears from? They look like motorcycle parts...
