Let's Make Robots Robots

Drawing on the popularity of the Tiny Tank, I decided that some folks might want wheels instead. I give you, Little Wheels.

The Little Wheels Robot is a great little bot for beginners and experienced robot builders alike. Simple, well designed and cute as a button, it is just a gosh darn good little bot.

Features:

  • Laser Cut Acrylic Chassis
  • All hardware needed for assembly
  • 120:1 geared motors
  • Fancy-schmancy wheels
  • Arduino Nano and UnderShield Combo
  • Sharp distance sensor
  • Really awesome head that looks really cool
