The Lynxmotion 3kg Sumo Robot Kits are perfect for getting a jump start on your next competition. The main problem people face when getting started in Robot Sumo is with the mechanical construction of the rolling chassis. Lynxmotion has several rolling chassis kits specifically designed for Robot Sumo. Choose between competiton tested 2WD, 4WD, or 6WD designs. To further fine tune your robot choose between two voltages, and two gear reductions for the motors. Lynxmotion is currently developing combo kits for all of the sumo robots. We are including all of the electronics to make the robots autonomous. However, the robot will require additional work on the scoop before it will be competition ready. These robots actually perform very well, having received 1st place at several events. Images to the right are some of the prize winning sumos that were built from the kits.
The Mechanics
The robot chassis is made from ultra-tough laser-cut Lexan structural components, and custom aluminum brackets. The body panels are available in black, bronze, or clear. The robot includes 12vdc gear head motors, with either 30:1 or 50:1 gear reduction.
Controlling the Robots
The robot can be controlled with a dual motor controller and an RC set for remote control operation. Autonomous operation can be achieved by adding a dual motor controller, a microcontroller and sensors.
