Nano Chassis Kits

Nano chassis are W25 x B25mm x H25mm (or higher). 

These kits have been designed to give our customers a 'kick-start' in making small robots and is NOT an 'out-of-the-box' solution. You'll  still need to invest considerable time  in making wiring harnesses, designing interface PCB's to simplify connect of sensors, motors, construct charging solutions, hours of programming, etc. These chassis are not designed for beginners in robot building!

Frustration Caution: If you don't have the patients of a watchmaker and hate fiddly things then, we suggest not to start making very small robots. Due the extreme small sizes there are many mechanical constraints that you need to deal  with when using these small chassis.

We recommend that you only use small chassis if your project specifically demands small robots (e.g. robot swarms) and that you have a research and development budget to build various prototypes and in the process probably destroying  a few before getting it right.

10003 - Nano Chassis

Belt Drive Version 3

Under development

This chassis consists of a solid aluminium motor block, that houses the two nano size geared motors and sheet steel or aluminium plates screwed to the motor block. The main advantage with this version is the weight of the aluminium motor block ensure a stable construction. 

Using additional aluminum or steel sheet plates, various types of robots can be assembled. 

This chassis is designed for Nano-sized swarms or Sumo competitions,  where flexibility is required to construct  individual versions of robot  teams with unique features.

10041 - Nano Chassis

Gear Drive Version 1

Under development

A 3 part chassis that just snap-fits together, using two nano size geared motors and direct gear drive for longer endurance.

Chassis Part 1- An outer 'skin' to protect the gears and other components' from damage from collisions with other robots. The skin is also great for adding some personality to the robot using paints and stickers.

Chassis Part 2 - The middle layer supports the robot controller and Li-Po Battery. The controller fixing hole pitch  is designed for the MegaBitty robot controller (20mm x 20mm). 

Chassis Part 3 - A quick release  motor chassis allow you to get to the motors and motor driver components quickly. It was designed for very large swarm robot solutions where easy maintenance and easy access to the motors is required. 

 

This version is still on alpha testing and may become available based on the results.

Micro Chassis & Robot Swarm Chassis

Micro chassis are larger chassis from W35 x B35mm x H45mm (or higher) in size 

These chassis are slightly  larger than Nano Chassis,  but still

These kits have been designed to give our customers a 'kick-start' in making small robots and is NOT an 'out-of-the-box' solution. You'll  still need to invest considerable time  in making wiring harnesses, designing interface PCB's to simplify connect of sensors, motors, construct charging solutions, hours of programming, etc. These chassis are not designed for beginners in robot building!

We  recommend that you start with these chassis if you intend to work with smaller chassis.

We recommend that you only use small chassis if your project specifically demands small robots (e.g. robot swarms) and that you have a research and development budget to destroy a few before getting it right. (It is recommended to purchase a few additional spare part chassis as reserve.)
