Rovers and robot cars, any number of axles
Pick the 2WD deck with a ball caster, the 4WD skid-steer chassis, or design a chassis in the Workshop with as many axles as you need. Wire the motor driver, the board and an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, then drive it on floor or grass in a MuJoCo physics simulation.
[01] Step by step
How it goes
- [01]Choose a chassis or design your own in the Workshop
- [02]Fit the TT gearmotors, wheels and caster
- [03]Wire the motor driver, board, battery and sensors
- [04]Write or pick the behaviour: line following, obstacle avoiding
- [05]Drive it in the physics sim and tune it
