PICone is a very economical micromouse designed by Jim Chidley and Derek Hall. In the 2009 UK micromouse competition, it came fourth in the finals. You can buy the kit from www.picone.co.uk and now the designers have put up a series of videos on Youtube to show you how to build your mouse, tune it for optimum behaviour and modify it for better performance. See them here…

    Excellent work Jim!!!
    Best part is that the mouse is not very straight to build, unlike some other plug and chug kits out there……so everyone making it will have to go through that fun part that every micromouse builder goes through……

    When I took it into my hands here in India, the design looked complex, but had no idea that it could go up to this level…….great engineering!
