4 Wheel Drive (4WD) Advance Metal Chassis for Robot car

4 Wheel Drive (4WD) Advance Metal Chassis for Robot Car provides a rugged, stable foundation for building high-performance mobile robots. Constructed from durable aluminum alloy, this chassis is significantly more robust than traditional plastic kits, making it ideal for competitive robotics, heavy-duty applications, and traversing uneven terrain. Its 4WD configuration ensures maximum traction and superior maneuverability, allowing you to execute precise movements even under heavy load. The pre-drilled, modular design simplifies the assembly process, offering ample space and mounting points for microcontrollers, motor drivers, sensors, and large battery packs, empowering you to create a professional-grade robot platform right out of the box.

Key Features:

• High-Strength Metal Construction: Utilizes a premium aluminum alloy frame for enhanced durability, rigidity, and superior load-bearing capability.
• True 4-Wheel Drive System: Engages four independent drive motors, ensuring excellent traction and stable movement across diverse surfaces, from smooth floors to rough carpets.
• Modular Mounting Plates: Features a multi-layered design with pre-drilled holes, providing flexible options for mounting electronics, cameras, and additional hardware.
• Optimized Clearance: The chassis design maintains good ground clearance, enabling the robot to navigate small obstacles and uneven surfaces effectively.
• Integrated Motor Mounts: Precisely cut slots and holes accommodate standard DC gear motors, simplifying alignment and reducing assembly time.

Technical Specifications:

• Recommended Motor Voltage: 6 V to 12 V DC (Depends on chosen motor)
• Drive Type: 4WD (Four Wheel Drive)
• Max Payload Capacity: ≈ 3 kg to 5 kg (Depending on motor selection and total weight distribution)
• Material Thickness: ≈ 2.0 mm Aluminum Alloy

Mechanical Specifications:

• Chassis Material: High-Grade Aluminum Alloy
• Suspension: Fixed (Rigid Frame)
• Wheel Compatibility: Designed for standard diameter robotic wheels (often 65mm or larger).
• Required Motors: Requires 4 individual DC Geared Motors (not included).

Dimensions:

• Length (Overall): ≈ 195 mm
• Width (Overall): ≈ 105 mm
• Ground Clearance: ≈ 25 mm to 40 mm
• Weight (Chassis Only): ≈ 300 g

Pinout and Wiring:

• Note: This is a mechanical frame and has no electrical pinout.
• Motor Wiring: You will connect the four motors (typically two wires each) to a multi-channel motor driver (like an L298N or TB6612FNG shield).
• Motor Driver Connections: Connect the motor driver to a microcontroller (e.g., Arduino, ESP32) for speed and direction control.
• Power Supply: Requires a dedicated battery source (e.g., LiPo, 18650 pack) for the motors, separate from the microcontroller supply, for high-current applications.
