The chassis features a high-strength aluminum alloy base for improved stability and durability. Its tracks are made of engineering plastic, providing good elasticity, excellent damping, and strong road grip for smooth movement across different surfaces. It also includes two high-quality motors that deliver strong power and speed, allowing your DIY robotic vehicle to handle a wide range of environments.
You can expand this chassis easily using Arduino microcontrollers or add sensors and modules such as IR sensors, ultrasonic sensors, cameras, LEDs, displays, WiFi modules, and more. The Black Gladiator chassis comes unassembled, giving you the full hands-on experience of building your robot from the ground up.
Assembly Guide
Note: This tracked chassis ships unassembled. Follow the steps below to assemble it.
- Install the load-bearing wheel by inserting an M4*50 long screw through the wheel and securing it with an M4 nut.
- Place a gasket on the bracket, insert the load-bearing wheel into the bracket hole, place another gasket on the other side, and secure it with an M4 nut. Do not overtighten the wheel.
- Insert the motor into the bracket and fasten it using three M3*6 flat-head screws.
- Install the drive wheel by inserting the coupling into the wheel, then use an M3*8 hex screw to lock the coupling to the wheel using an Allen key.
- Mount the drive wheel onto the motor shaft and tighten the black screw. Ensure the coupling hole aligns with the flat side of the motor shaft.
- Prepare the track by removing excess sections and adjusting to the correct length. Insert the track pin using pliers to secure the track.
