HELP - Need something built with wheels to place sign on top of. Remote control

I have a “caution” sign with a thick rubber platform (see attached photo) that I use to keep cars from coming into my driveway.
I would like to buy an inexpensive robot kit with a flat top with wheels so I can place the sign and rubber platform on top of it and then be able to have it move via remote control. Right now I have to get out of my car to move it and then place it back.
28" x 18" x 2H - dimensions of rubber platform that I would attach with long screws into robot platform.

Would the Bodie Runt Rover work?
Would the $WD Arduino Mobile platform work?
Is there something better.

Please help. If someone is in Austin,TX, please reach out. I am 60 years old and not tech savvy in building anything.

Hello,

Welcome to Robotshop community.

The two options you mentioned (Bogie Runt Rover and 4WD Arduino mobile platform) are much smaller than the dimensions of the rubber base of your sign so these will not be suitable to fix the sign on them.

Most of the inexpensive rovers that we have are smaller in size.

Based on your requirement, you can have a look at these options if they suit you:

Lynxmotion 6WD Rover Kit

Mobile Explorer Robot 6WD

We hope you find this helpful. Please feel free to reply here for further discussion.

Best regards,

Also please let us know the weight of the sign you have so we can suggest you a more accurate option.
