I use standard TT gear motors to drive the screw units. I also used a RC toy from Walmart to control the gearmotors. The battery box area will hold a 4 AA battery "dual in line" pack.

I did two different bodys for my build but I think if I give you just the base for the body then you can have the fun of designing your own body style.

Print 2 of the screw drive A parts and 2 of the screw drive B parts. Us e the part A parts for the left side and the B for the right side lets say, it does not matter as long as the Part A screw drive parts are on the same side.
