Vera had bible study today, while she was gone I got the radio controlled truck ready to try running the Ethernet cable under the house to Vera's computer . It had been temporarily run on the floor for a couple of months. I mounted a TV transmitter on the back of the truck and mounted a servo with a hook on it behind the front bumper. When you look at the transmitter, it is about 1 inch square and contains the color camera, mike and a 2.4 Ghz transmitter. We made a run to town for some boxes and conduit for running the cable down through the floor and insulation.
Once I got the first box installed, we gave it a try. I put the truck in through the access door on the East side and drove it up to where the wires come through. I hooked onto a cable and asked Vera to wiggle the right one, of course, I had the wrong one. I released it and moved over to the right one, I hooked up to the right one.
Then while I was turning around, I got tangled up in the other wires, this is what I saw then, the skirting and one of the cables. I had to crawl up there and rescue the truck. I brought it and the cable out while Vera fed the cable down. Once I was out and we had all the cable pulled to the access door, I hooked it onto the truck and drove it to the West access door without any problem. I put the other box in and got the cable hooked back up to Vera's computer. At least the truck saved me one trip across under the house.
