This robot is a fully assembled ready to go LT Treaded Robot.  It is controlled with a Spektrum RC system.  The LT is our smaller treaded robot that can be used to climb standard stairs. It does not have the flipper/stabilizer arm on it like the LT-F Treaded Robot, so climbing steep stairs or stairs with big noses is not possible. The LT Treaded robot is an affordable treaded robot that can be easily transported (weighing about 25 lbs) and is small and can handle most terrains with its aggressive all terrain treads. We have added a support page for this robot kit that also includes some videos of the robot in action. The videos also show the abuse the robot can take. See our Treaded LT Support Page!

This robot is not meant for carrying heavy loads or pulling heavy objects like our HD2 Treaded Robot. The robot is a light weight tough little robot that can go over and under many obstacles. The front wheels are driven with powerful IG52 gear motors with #25 chain. The chassis is made from aircraft grade aluminum. The design uses all laser cut parts with mortise and tenon design for precise alignment and mating of the parts. We weld all the aluminum together using TIG and MIG for a solid chassis. The top of the robot is open and can be enclosed with an acrylic cover. The robot axles are solid high strength steel so they will not bend when the robot is dropped. We have designed this robot to be as simple as possible without compromising its strength, durability, or functionality.

The robot chassis is symmetric and invertible. This robot is configured with a Spektrum 2.4GHz RC system.

The robot has the ability to climb common stairs and go over most terrain. We have spent a lot of time developing this robot so you can use it from the beginning with no issues. The standard treads are 4" wide with an aggressive All-Terrain rubber pattern. The treads are reinforced with a nylon mesh with a black rubber tread. We put on tracking guides using a custom jig. We then coat the inside with a highly abrasive resistant high traction rubber to grab the 6inch custom drive wheels.

The chassis is 3 inches high x 8.25 inches wide x ~18.5 inch wheel center distance length. The total width of the robot is about 17 inches wide with the flipper arms. The center cavity is large enough for for the motors, batteries, electronics, cameras, etc. The top is flanged with laser cut holes that are tapped for mounting the acrylic covers.  The robot is geared with a 1:2 reduction (gear motor to drive wheels). The ground speed is about 4 ft/sec.
