The option to build a tracked configuration helps when driving on uneven surfaces (e.g., grass, gravel) and enables climbing slopes with an incline of up to 40°.
The kit includes components to create mechanisms that allow the robot to grip, lift, lower, and release small objects – ideal for more complex tasks and projects.
After upgrading the mBot2, you can continue programming in mBlock using blocks or in Python and verify the results directly in practice.
The xTool Rover Robotics kit is an expansion kit for the Makeblock mBot2 that lets you rebuild the robot into different configurations and try new construction ideas. Depending on the chosen build, you can also use a tracked drive, which makes it easier to drive on uneven surfaces such as grass or gravel and supports climbing slopes up to 40°.
The components also allow you to create builds with mechanisms for object manipulation – the robot can grip, lift, lower, and release small items. This makes the kit suitable for hands-on projects focused on mechanics, construction, and problem solving.
Even after rebuilding, you can continue to use the mBot2’s programming options, including the mBlock environment for block-based programming as well as programming in Python. The kit thus naturally connects building, testing, and validating your own code in real-world use.
