DiddyBorg v2 Robot Kit - Red Edition
- SKU:
- 2104
Our most popular Raspberry Pi robot kit DiddyBorg is back with faster motors and a newly designed chassis!
Red Edition comes with six upgraded 28mm 590rpm metal geared motors. Red ones really do go faster!
The idea remains the same, a 6 wheeled high-torque robotics platform, but give everyone the ability to add lots of extra functionality and get your robot to perform a wide range of tasks. Want to detect objects in your DiddyBorg's path? Add the ultrasonic mounts at the front and back. Need to use a servo to move a robotic arm? Mount them on the multi-function top and go!
You could even add the Raspberry Pi touch screen and turn your robot into a touchscreen controlled turtle.
A Raspberry Pi B+/2/3/3B+ and SD card are required to complete your DiddyBorg v2, they are not included. DiddyBorg v2 optionally supports the Pi Camera, also not included.
