This chassis was prototype designed for a  micro robot project.

The chassis is designed to accomodate  two micro geared motors to fit  snuggly together. 

The aluminium  drive wheel is fitted to  the motor shaft firmly with the use of a ' grub- screw' that is  embedded within the wheel. 

The follower wheel is fitted with a precision ball bearing race that ensures free and easy movement and reduced power loss. An O-ring belt drive connects the two wheel together.

These units are extremely sturdy and with  powerful geared motors. 

The main challenge with very compact designs is providing adequate space for suitable  power supplies. In this case, Li-Po Batteries where used in this project, which enabled a few minutes of Operation.

This chassis was designed for a University  micro robot research project. Development is on-going.

This was designed for a specific research project. .

The chassis is designed as a 'scout'  to fit through a  narrow passage and then expand. Further details will be announce when the project is given approval for publications., 

This prototype chassis is designed to accommodate the IRCF sensor module and MEGAbitty controller board. 

The chassis hinges in the middle to enable easier access to the Megabitty robot controller board or other motor controller board.
