Make an amazing 2-wheeler balancing robot in less than 2 hours.

I based my robot on vahid_you2004's instructable (Balancing Robot).
But decided to show you some pictures and video's i took of my robot...If you want to make it and need a more detailed description of how to make it check out the Balancing Robot instructable.
