RoboCam repair

Today I got my RoboCam home from Greenland. Unfortunately one of these axle carriers had broken while we were testing the robot a bit rough (without camera) in the cold and snow. Perhaps it was too cold for the plastic. Luckily the robot is built on the basis of a serious 4WD radio controlled vehicle for which you can order spare parts. I had done that in advance so it was just a matter of swapping the bad for the good! :) I did not have much luck with the RoboCam and the musk oxen but that is another story...
