This is our revision 2 Deluxe ATR kit that is fully assembled and loaded with all the options to make it great first response or inspection robot. The robot is entirely enclosed and can be used in all weather conditions. The wheels are axle mounted and supported using two sealed ball bearings. Each of the four axles are driven by a large and powerful IG42 252 RPM Gear motors via chains to yield a smooth and slip free mode of operation. The motors and transmission allow this robot to climb walls. The wheels of this robot are our Tamiya 6.75" Dia. All-Terrain Tires. The tires have been foam filled so they will not flatten with heavier loads, etc. The wheel hubs have a hex coupling that matches to our axles for a slip free engagement. The robots dimensions are ~23" wide and ~20" long (wheel to wheel edge). The robot has a ~2.5" clearance. The height of the robot is ~7.5" from the ground, with the camera dome ~11.5". The chassis is ~14.5" wide x ~18.25" long.
The frame is made of 1/8" thick aircraft grade aluminum. The design uses all laser cut parts with mortise and tenon design for precise alignment and mating of the parts. The covers are tinted acrylic that is also laser cut to match the holes of the mating flanges that are tapped after the laser cutting. A galvanized metal cover for shielding EMF is provided for going over the four motors which are mounted in the center. A middle tray is also provided that mounts on top of the motors for mounting the batteries, camera system, and electronics too. The chassis is completely welding using TIG and MIG. Gaskets are also provided for sealing the acrylic covers. The robot also has front Halogen lights that are controlled remotely.

This was a demonstration robot which built a few months ago and has not been used much except for show and tell. The batteries are in good shape, but old and may need to be replaced before long. We will ensure the batteries are fully charged and everything functions prior to shipping. You will also need a charger, we recommend this field charger, which requires a 12V supply: AstroFlight 110 Deluxe Charger/Discharger - TE-073-000.
