## 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. Six kits — choose yours above: Maqueen Lite only The robot on its own. Choose this if your students already have micro:bits. With micro:bit V2 Everything needed to start — the robot plus the board that runs it. With micro:bit V2 + IR remote Adds a handheld infrared remote, so the robot can be driven as well as programmed. With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad Adds the micro:Gamepad, a second micro:bit-based controller for radio-controlled driving. With micro:bit V2 + Gamepad + IR remote The full set, for a class that wants both ways of controlling it. With Mechanic Loader (no micro:bit) The robot plus the servo-driven loader bucket, for mechanisms work. On board Two all-metal micro gear motors with custom POM bearing wheels — good grip and enough torque to climb small obstacles Line-following sensors for track and maze activities Ambient light sensor, programmable LED headlights and a buzzer Ultrasonic and I2C connectors, plus mounting holes for the Maqueen Mechanic attachments 3 × AAA battery box (batteries not included) Programs 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. Suggested age: 8 and up. In 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.

**Product Type:** Educational Robot Platform
