4WD Outdoor Mobile Platform
Discontinued
A rugged four-wheel-drive outdoor mobile robot platform built on an aluminium frame. This kit provides a solid mechanical foundation for outdoor robotics projects — add your own controller, motor driver, and sensors to create an autonomous or remote-controlled robot.
The platform is powered by four encodered 12V DC gear motors with outdoor-rated wheels, delivering a top speed of 80 cm/s. The dual-deck design includes mounting space for a standard-sized servo motor, and plenty of room for electronics, cameras, and additional hardware.
Key Features
- Aluminium Frame – Durable dual-deck construction with mounting hardware included
- 4× Encodered DC Motors – 12V, 251 RPM gear motors with built-in encoders for speed and position feedback
- Outdoor Wheels – Treaded rubber wheels for terrain grip
- Servo Mount – Space for a standard servo (pan/tilt camera, sensor turret, etc.)
- 80 cm/s Top Speed – Strong climbing ability for outdoor terrain
