Anyone working with the Unitree G1 basic and have opened it up to review the motherboard? I am curious if it is the same as the EDU and just missing the jetson?

I know other things are missing such as some wiring, the leg motors are slightly stronger on EDU.

I am curious to see what mods can be done, what integration can occur. I know secondary development is not available on the basic, but if you slotted in a jetson or added another piggyback system, expansion can occur. Of course, this depends on integration with the mainboard.

Just curious what others have done.

I've seen some posts where people have expanded the G1 basic. From what I can tell, the difference between the G1 basic and the EDU is the jetson, stronger motors on the legs, more degrees of freedom on the wrists, some wiring etc.

But beyond that, I am expecting the base motherboard is exactly the same as the EDU along with the sensors and probably most everything else.

Once my warranty expires, I plan on diving in deep. But for now, has anyone went down this rabbit hole successfully and what was your path? There are various expansion ports all over the board. Communication and integration will be interesting...

I am open to experimenting.

Thanks!

I am wondering if anyone has any insight about when the unitree app store will come to the USA or international version?

You cannot bind the mainland version to the bot. Looking to advance my G1 is all.
