User questions & answers

Question:	Does this kit include the batteries? Or do those need to be purchased separately
Answer:	Sorry, this kit come without the batteries. You need to purchase the batteries separately.
Question:	What's the maximum load this Robotic Car can support
Answer:	The max weight of the robot car chassis carrying is 3kg. As the acrylic plate is above the metal car chassis and the material is fragile,the full robot car may just carry less 1kg.
Question:	Can i program and operate this car without an android or ios device
Answer:	Our mobile now is using UDP protocol to send command to robot car. UDP is a simple and reliable protocol to communicate with Arduino and ESP8266 chip. But we can only use Mobile APP to send UDP control signal to robot car. If you want to use PC to control the robot, you need use HTTP instead of UDP protocol and run a small web server on the robot car. Then you can use browser to control the car. This is a little bit diffcult for normal users and also not reliable compared with UDP. So we don't provide detail tutorial on such HTTP solution. If you are interested to know how to run a web server in Arduino, contact our offical website service, they will tell the tutorial link.
Question:	How big are the wheels
Answer:	Robot Car Specifications: Mecanum Wheel Diameter:80mm Mecanum Wheel Width:40mm Metal Chassis Dimensions: 15.5cm x 20.5cm Robot Car Height: 6cm Motor Shaft Diameter: 5mm We have detailed tutorial : https://osoyoo.com/?p=30022

User questions & answers

Question:	Why only the yellow for prime shipping
Answer:	Because only yellow is sent to the Amazon warehouse. Other colors are shipped from China, it usually takes 7-15 days.
Question:	I'd like to know the complete specifications for the motors. do they have encoders? if not, may i install another motor?what is the coupling measure
Answer:	Just DC motors - 12V forward/reverse...shaft appears to be nominal 1/8"/3.17mm...
Question:	Could i just hook an esc to this to control the motors (like an rc car minus the gear box) or do i have to have an arduino or pi setup
Answer:	Should be fine. They're just DC motors. Make sure to use an esc that's rated for 12v DC.
Question:	Is anything else required to control, drive or program this
Answer:	I actually purchased this one by mistake, but yes there is. Arduino, Raspberry pi, etc. The only electronics that come with this are the motors, which don't have any kind of connector on the wires. So you'll also need some soldering skill

FAQ:

Q: Where can I find the documents?

A: The document can be find at OUR BLOG gitnova dot com, and there we have the refered source code for Arduino.

Q: If the track is too long for the car, how to solve it?

A: The track is connected one joint by one joint. So, the track can be adjusted any length by using some tools similar to the Tweezers.

Q: What is the working voltage for the motor?

A: The working voltage can be 6-12V.

Q: How about the bearing load?

A: The car is mainly used to the scientific study research. So the bearing load is not big, about 1-3kg. If need much big load, please contact us.

Q: Which controllers are suitable for this car?

A: Many controllers can be used to control this car, e.g., Arduino, Raspberry pi, STM32, Micro Bit, and so on.

• Solid but Cheap: Assemble Video: bit.ly/3ckuQQI. The car panel is metal, which is different from the plastic/acrylic, but the price is almost the same.
• Convenient Use: The tank car chassis can be controlled by any other controllers, e.g., Arduino, Raspberry, STM32.
• Good Help for Your Project: When you want to do some robot model function realization. This smart car chassis is very suitable for you.
• Updating Richful Documents: Visit our blog gitnova.com, you can find many installation document or referred source code.
• Provide the Referred Controlling Example: We provide the illustrative controlling example with differe wireless controll mode: bluetooth, wifi, and ps2.
