To make it easier for you to get started, I have put together a selection of chassis types that are excellently suited for the projects in the book. Whether you are looking for a complete beginner’s kit or prefer to combine individual parts – here you will find the right foundation for your adventure in robotics.
Overview of ready-to-buy chassis:
These two chassis are my personal favorites for getting started and form the basis for many projects in the book. I have tested them extensively and can recommend them without reservation.
- Easy Assembly: The assembly is straightforward and easy to manage, even for beginners.
- Robust and Reliable: They are durable and can forgive a small crash during the first test drives.
- Flexibly Expandable: There is enough space for the ESP32, sensors, batteries, and everything else you need for your experiments.
With these models, you can’t go wrong and will have a reliable platform that grows with your skills.
Besides the classics I’ve tested, there are, of course, many other great chassis on the market. The models from Yahboom are popular in the maker community and known for their good quality and well-thought-out designs.
Important Note: I have not personally tested these specific Yahboom models for the book yet. However, due to the extensive positive feedback from the community and their professional appearance, I want to present them to you as promising alternatives.
They are often available in complete sets, which further simplifies getting started. If you decide on a Yahboom chassis, you will be entering new territory compared to the book’s examples, but that’s exactly what makes tinkering exciting, isn’t it?
I wish you lots of fun and success in building your robot car! The most important thing is to stay curious and enjoy experimenting.
