Volt the Robot - Modular Evolution

Admittedly, Volt is a bit of a kludge - he is a constant work-in-progress, and it is clear that his innards require some spring cleaning. We'll address his various connectors and microcontrollers when we incorporate the custom servo controller designed by Brett f from MicroRobotics.
