mBot2 Rover Add-On Pack

Turn your mBot2 into a tracked, all-terrain rover. Includes rubber tracks, 2 servo packs, metal parts and a Bluetooth controller to build a Rover, Robot Arm and Carrier. Requires mBot2 (sold separately). Ages 8+.

Description

The mBot2 Rover Add-On Pack upgrades your mBot2 into a tracked robot built for the outdoors. Rubber tracks and metal shock absorbers handle grass, gravel and bumpy ground, so a school field or playground becomes a test track.

Three robots in one pack

Follow the build guide to make three official models: the Rover, a tracked all-terrain explorer; the Robot Arm, which uses two servos to pick up and move small objects; and the Carrier, for delivery missions and precise driving. The parts also work with over 500 Makeblock mechanical parts for custom designs.

Drive it, then code it

Use the included Bluetooth controller to drive straight away. Then program the Rover in mBlock with drag-and-drop blocks, and move on to Python when learners are ready. Learners can also give the Rover its own expressions by choosing colours, moods and styles, a simple introduction to AI projects.
