{"title":"micro:Maqueen Lite - micro:bit Educational Robot Platform","handle":"micro-maqueen-micro-bit-robot-platform","url":"/products/micro-maqueen-micro-bit-robot-platform","description":"Maqueen Lite is a compact, pre-assembled robot for the BBC micro:bit, and the friendliest way into classroom robotics. Slot a micro:bit into the edge connector, write a few blocks in MakeCode, and it drives, follows a line, flashes its headlights and beeps. No soldering and no chassis to build.\n\nSix kits — choose yours above:\n\nMaqueen Lite only\nThe robot on its own. Choose this if your students already have micro:bits.\nWith micro:bit V2\nEverything needed to start — the robot plus the board that runs it.\nWith micro:bit V2 + IR remote\nAdds a handheld infrared remote, so the robot can be driven as well as programmed.\nWith micro:bit V2 + Gamepad\nAdds the micro:Gamepad, a second micro:bit-based controller for radio-controlled driving.\nWith micro:bit V2 + Gamepad + IR remote\nThe full set, for a class that wants both ways of controlling it.\nWith Mechanic Loader (no micro:bit)\nThe robot plus the servo-driven loader bucket, for mechanisms work.\n\n\nOn board\n\nTwo all-metal micro gear motors with custom POM bearing wheels — good grip and enough torque to climb small obstacles\nLine-following sensors for track and maze activities\nAmbient light sensor, programmable LED headlights and a buzzer\nUltrasonic and I2C connectors, plus mounting holes for the Maqueen Mechanic attachments\n3 × AAA battery box (batteries not included)\n\n\nPrograms with Microsoft MakeCode blocks — the same environment schools already use for the micro:bit — so a teacher who has run a micro:bit lesson can run this one.\n\nSuggested age: 8 and up.\n\nIn the box: assembled car body with the motors and support wheels already fitted, two drive wheels, a 3 × AAA battery box and double-sided tape. A micro:bit is included only in the kits listed above.","vendor":"DFRobot","product_type":"Educational Robot Platform","in_stock":true,"options":[{"name":"Kit","values":["Maqueen Lite only (no micro:bit)","With micro:bit V2","With micro:bit V2 + IR remote","With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad","With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad + IR remote","With Mechanic Loader (no micro:bit)"]}],"variants":[{"id":14433,"title":"Maqueen Lite only (no micro:bit)","sku":"DF-ROB0148","mpn":"ROB0148-EN","price":62.4,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":13,"option1":"Maqueen Lite only (no micro:bit)"},{"id":4882,"title":"With micro:bit V2","sku":"DF-ROB0148-EN-1","price":107.58,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":1116,"option1":"With micro:bit V2"},{"id":4877,"title":"With micro:bit V2 + IR remote","sku":"DF-ROB0148-EN-3","price":126.5,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":96,"option1":"With micro:bit V2 + IR remote"},{"id":4871,"title":"With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad","sku":"DF-ROB0148-EN-2","price":207.25,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":133,"option1":"With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad"},{"id":4845,"title":"With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad + IR remote","sku":"DF-ROB0148-EN-4","price":210.75,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":96,"option1":"With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad + IR remote"},{"id":4004,"title":"With Mechanic Loader (no micro:bit)","sku":"DF-ROB0156-L-1","price":82.7,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":590,"option1":"With Mechanic Loader (no micro:bit)"}],"documents":[{"title":"Crazy Maqueen Tutorial (English)","type":"user_guide","type_label":"User Guide","url":"https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDiR4BSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--a57aaa3a79517f6e9eb6ceab731aeefb57aa17e1/Crazy_20Maqueen_20Tutorial-English.pdf","link":false,"file_extension":"PDF","file_size":9485686,"description":"English tutorial and usage guide for the Maqueen micro:bit robot platform"},{"title":"Supplier page — dfrobot.com","type":"supplier_description","type_label":"Supplier Description","url":"https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkD7CMBSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--260a3f652dfbdb3e611c96b52138b9e4df1a758e/micro-maqueen-micro-bit-robot-platform-dfrobot-com-2026-05-13.pdf","link":false,"file_extension":"PDF","file_size":461465,"description":"Snapshot of https://www.dfrobot.com/product-2589.html (captured 13 May 2026)"},{"title":"CE Certificate","type":"compliance","type_label":"Compliance","url":"https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDqIgDSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--3b4d947034e2cbada296c169a0898613f4c14aa6/ROB0148-EN_maqueen-educational-programming-robot-platform_ce_V1.pdf","link":false,"file_extension":"PDF","file_size":146630,"description":"CE compliance certificate for the Maqueen Lite robot platform."},{"title":"FCC Certificate","type":"compliance","type_label":"Compliance","url":"https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDqYgDSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--c255f7c73835de94d6334fe5f950081723d49063/ROB0148-EN_maqueen-educational-programming-robot-platform_fcc_V1.pdf","link":false,"file_extension":"PDF","file_size":141878,"description":"FCC compliance certificate for the Maqueen Lite robot platform."},{"title":"Mechanical Dimensions","type":"mechanical_drawings","type_label":"Mechanical Drawings","url":"https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDqogDSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--b1b7d7e5b7a4daadbcb159bbe0654b3672c150df/ROB0148-EN_maqueen-educational-programming-robot-platform_dimension_V4.zip","link":false,"file_extension":"ZIP","file_size":275228,"description":"ZIP package containing dimensional drawings for the Maqueen Lite robot."}]}
