This is the Dagu 4WD Thumper Mobile Platform (Aluminum, 34:1). The 4 wheel drive chassis is a smaller version of the Wild Thumper 6WD chassis, designed to excel at traversing rough terrain. It is a great platform for any robot that needs to perform tasks in a complex outdoor environment. It features four DC motors with brass brushes and 34:1 steel gearboxes that drive large (120mm diameter) spiked tires. The suspension can be adjusted to suit different loads and conditions. The chassis is made from a 2mm-thick corrosion-resistant anodized aluminum plate.
When powered at 7.2 V, the version of the chassis with 34:1 gearboxes can reach a top speed of approximately 7 km/h, and each motor has a stall torque of roughly 5 kg-cm (70 oz-in).
The chassis aluminum plate has 4mm holes spaced every 10mm, providing plenty of options when it comes to mounting your control electronics, sensors, and additional hardware. A compartment in the chassis has been designed to hold 7.2V sub-C battery packs (not included) that are commonly used in RC cars. Two such battery packs can fit in the compartment.
