Robot Kits with Soldering

The Pololu 3pi+ 2040 robot is a palm-sized, high-performance mobile platform based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040 MCU, and this kit contains all the parts you need to build the Standard Edition version, including a pair of 30:1 MP 6V Micro Metal Gearmotors. The many features of the 3pi+ include dual quadrature encoders for closed-loop speed or position control, line sensors, front bump sensors, a full IMU (3-axis accelerometer, magnetometer, and gyro), six RGB LEDs, and a graphical OLED display. This product is a kit; assembly (including soldering) is required.

The Pololu 3pi+ 2040 robot is a palm-sized, high-performance mobile platform based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040 MCU, and this kit contains all the parts you need to build the Turtle Edition version, including a pair of 75:1 LP 6V Micro Metal Gearmotors. The many features of the 3pi+ include dual quadrature encoders for closed-loop speed or position control, line sensors, front bump sensors, a full IMU (3-axis accelerometer, magnetometer, and gyro), six RGB LEDs, and a graphical OLED display. This product is a kit; assembly (including soldering) is required.

The Pololu 3pi+ 2040 robot is a palm-sized, high-performance mobile platform based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040 MCU, and this kit contains all the parts you need to build the Hyper Edition version, including a pair of 15:1 HPCB 6V Micro Metal Gearmotors. This product is a kit; assembly (including soldering) is required.

NOTE: This version is difficult to control and fast enough to damage itself from impacts, so it is only recommended for advanced users. A spare 15:1 gearbox is included.

The Pololu 3pi+ 32U4 OLED robot is a complete, high-performance mobile platform based on the Arduino-compatible ATmega32U4 MCU, and this kit contains all the parts you need to build the Standard Edition version, including a pair of 30:1 MP 6V Micro Metal Gearmotors. The many features of the 3pi+ include dual quadrature encoders for closed-loop speed or position control, line sensors, front bump sensors, a full IMU (3-axis accelerometer, magnetometer, and gyro), and a graphical OLED display, all packed into a robot that can fit within the palm of your hand. This product is a kit; assembly (including soldering) is required.

It includes integrated dual motor drivers, a graphical OLED display, quadrature encoders, line sensors, side and front proximity sensors, and a full IMU. The assembled robot is less than 10 cm × 10 cm—small enough to qualify for Mini Sumo. This product is a kit; assembly (including soldering) is required.

This kit contains most of the parts you need to build an Arduino-controlled Zumo robot. It consists of a Zumo Shield for Arduino, a Zumo chassis kit, and a Zumo blade. You will also need a pair of micro metal gearmotors, four AA batteries, and an A-Star 32U4 Prime or Arduino to complete your Zumo robot (motors, batteries, and Arduino sold separately). This product is a kit; assembly (including soldering) is required.

Build your very own programmable balancing robot with the Balboa 32U4 robot kit! The Balboa control board features an Arduino-compatible ATmega32U4 MCU, motor drivers, quadrature encoders, and a full IMU. This board also has the ability to interface with a Raspberry Pi, making the foundation for a complete Raspberry Pi-controlled balancing robot. Motors and wheels are not included: choose your wheels and motors to personalize your robot.

The Romi 32U4 Control Board turns the Romi chassis into a programmable robot based on the Arduino-compatible ATmega32U4 MCU. Its features include integrated dual motor drivers, a versatile power circuit, and inertial sensors, as well as connections for quadrature encoders and an optional LCD. The board also has the ability to interface with an added Raspberry Pi, making the foundation for a complete Raspberry Pi-controlled Romi robot.

If you have been thinking about getting your own mini sumo robot but were waiting for the right kit to come along, we might just have the one for you!
