## Description

The Turtle is a compact 2WD mobile robot platform designed for use with Arduino and other microcontroller boards. It comes as a kit with two geared DC motors, rubber wheels, a rear caster ball, an aluminium alloy chassis, and all mounting hardware needed for assembly. The top layer includes a standard servo socket and three optional sensor holder positions for IR range sensors. The servo mount supports simple rotation platforms, two degree-of-freedom camera holders, or small robotic arms. With its differential drive and near-zero turning radius, it's well suited to indoor flat-surface navigation.
