Baby's First day out: Broken HP and Dome Gear

The first time out for R2 exposed him to many challenges:

• Children and adults all leaning on the dome when he is in automated mode (turning and making chirps randomly).
• Weight when little hands press against the dome features such as the HPs

All this resulted in a very successful first day in the wild.

1. The top dome HP fell into the dome due to some small child pushing it in.
2. The dome gear tore off and snapped the screws due to fighting the weight of people when it wanted to turn :)

Bore out new holes through the gear into a new piece of plastic with the correct height.

The screws (4X40) were too long so I will cut them down once I add all the nuts.

Here they are cut down and ready to rock n roll!

All in all everything was fixable... no major issues, and...

The 12V 18amp Battery lasted roughly 5.5 hours and could have gone longer...
