A wring question about 2WD smart robot car?

Hi,

I just bought Smart Robot Car Chassis Kit
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-Avoidance-tracking-Motor-Smart-Robot-Car-Chassis-Kit-Speed-Encoder-Battery-Box-2WD-Ultrasonic-module/32361522385.html

And I don't know how to wire it correctly
I have a place for 4 AA batteries (I want to use rechargeable) and what I dont know how to wired is the power between arduino uno, L298N, and sensors shield 5v

From where the Arduino gets its power? I need to connect the batteries straight to it? Or to the sensors shields?
and do I need to connect the batteries in parallel between the Arduino shield and the H bridge L298N?

Thanks!

Hi,

Welcome to the forum.
What is your electronics, programming, arduino, hardware experience?

This will help use to give you relevant information.
Can you post a picture of the chassis kit please.

Please read the first post in any forum entitled how to use this forum.

Hi Tom,

Thank you very much for your answer
I have an experience in programming on multiple programming languages
I have a basic experience in electronics, most of it from the book Exploring Arduino by Jeremy Blum
In Arduino I build a few simple projects with sensors like light sensor, temp and humidity sensor, LCD screen, RGB led, a buzzer and so on...
None of the previous project that I've made wasn't needed any external power and all of them used the 5v output of my Arduino UNO.

I attach the picture of the kit that I have (from the seller website) and I found an instruction on how to assembly the kit in this link:
http://veerobot.com/learn/arduino-compatible-veerobot-2wd-chassis-assembly/

In this project I have 2 independent engine and one servo motor that involved in the project.
I don't know how to connect the power correctly to Arduino UNO, sensors shield and motors H bridge.

Thanks!
