4. What’s Included

  • 3D printed suspension arms

  • Main chassis frame

  • Joints and mounting parts

  • Assembly-ready parts (no electronics)

5. Ideal for STEM and Science Fairs

Perfect for:

  • School science exhibitions

  • Robotics competitions

  • Space-themed learning projects

  • Engineering labs

6. What You’ll Need to Complete the Build

  • DC/BO motors

  • Arduino or Raspberry Pi controller

  • Motor driver board

  • Power supply

  • RC receiver or autonomous sensor setup

7. Real-World Applications
