This anodised aluminium chassis provides a sturdy, lightweight foundation for building your own mini robot rover. With plenty of mounting holes and slots, it's easy to configure for 2-wheel or 4-wheel designs and simple to modify by drilling or cutting.

Specifically designed to work with the Continuous Rotation Micro Servo (FS90R) or a DC motor in micro servo body. Pair with matching wheels and, for 2-wheel builds, a supporting swivel caster wheel. Add any microcontroller and motor/servo driver to complete your robot.

Key Features

  • Anodised Aluminium Construction – Lightweight yet strong and durable
  • Flexible Configuration – Supports 2-wheel or 4-wheel robot designs
  • Abundant Mounting Points – Numerous holes and slots for motors, sensors, and electronics
  • Easy to Modify – Aluminium can be drilled and cut to suit your project
  • Tough and Resilient – Won't crack or break from drops and impacts

Ideal For

  • Mini robot rover projects
  • Educational robotics builds
  • Custom mobile robot platforms
Note: This is the metal frame chassis only. Motors, wheels, motor driver, microcontroller, and other electronics are sold separately.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

microcontroller
A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
motor driver
An electronic circuit that lets a low-power controller switch and control a motor that needs more current than the controller pins can safely provide. Checking motor driver support matters because pumps and motors usually cannot be connected directly to a microcontroller output.
servo
A servo is a motor with built-in position control, usually told to move to a specific angle by a control signal. It matters when you need repeatable movement, such as steering, arms, flaps, or linkages, rather than continuous spinning.
