I read the build manual for the AR3 robot and found that during the build for the control box there is nowhere in the BOM does it mention the 5v PSU used in the build. Any specific PSU you'd recommend or any 5v PSU will work?

Any inexpensive 5v power supply should work fine, its only purpose is to power the relay board for gripper or peripheral devices, I will have a look at the manual and add that back in.

thank you.

I am also working my way through the AR3 electrical cabinet build. The instructions do not mention wiring the 5v aviation plug. There is also no mention how the teensy and Mega board are powered. Nt sure if I should wire to the internal 5v supply or let the USB power these boards. Either will likely work, but it would be good to know what was intended.
