Product Description

The GooseneckTM is a great little trail-wheel robot kit that glides effortlessly across the floor. The 2.975″ orange skate wheels are each driven by a 195RPM 3-12V precision planetary gearmotor. The “truck-bed” style chassis is great for battery storage, electronics, or for hauling things around. The chassis is almost entirely snap-together, requiring only a 7/64″ hex key for assembly. The chassis plates incorporate our 0.770″ Actobotics hub pattern, allowing for easy attachment and customization using other Actobotics components. The protruding “Gooseneck” piece provides a great base for a robotic arm, gripper kit, scoop, or other custom attachment – the possibilities are endless! We suggest using a 6-12V battery pack (not included) to power this kit; and for motor control, the RoboClaw 2x5A unit is a great option. Assembly video coming soon.
