Mini Round Robot Chassis Kit - 2WD with DC Motors
All prices are VAT included
Unleash your inner Mad Max and make your vehicle dreams a reality with the Mini Red Round Robot Chassis Kit.
This kit gives you everything you need to build the shell of a 2-wheel-drive Mobile Platform Robot! You get the metal plates that make up the chassis, two DC drive motors with matching wheels, and a caster ball for balance. You'll fill in the rest with a power supply, microcontroller board, and motor controller. The differential drive (two separately driven wheels) allows for a near zero turning radius while the high-strength aluminum alloy body plus high-quality high-speed motors make it suitable for flat indoor surfaces. Also it's adorably small!
We of course have suggestions to run the motors like our TB6612 breakout , Motor FeatherWing , Motor Shield for Arduino , or Motor HAT for Raspberry Pi . Basically anything that can do two bi-directional brushed DC motors at ~5V and 1.5 Amp peak. To steer the wheels, you'll need something to toggle the motor driver like our Feather 32u4 Bluefruit LE , which we used in our demo, and to power the robot/microcontroller we used a Lithium Ion Battery - 3.7v 2000mAh , but this is all up to you and your imagination!
Note: LiPoly Battery , Feather board , FeatherWings , and Feather accessories are not included! This is just the body of the mobile platform robot.
Kit includes:
- 2x Drive Motors (drive with 3-6VDC, 200-400 mA run, 1.5A hard stall)
- 2x Wheels
- 1x Metal Caster Ball
- Anodized aluminum frame and all mounting hardware for assembly
