The FingerTech 'Viper' Combat Robot Kit V2 comes with everything you need to get started in combat robotics. The custom-formed 6061-T6 Aluminum chassis has plenty of strength and space for additional components and upgrades.
The kit includes a JST-to-9V Adapter cable so you can power it with a 9V battery instead of a lipoly battery. Battery is not included!
Two FingerTech "Silver Spark" 33.3:1 ratio gearmotors with 2.25" Snap Wheels provide both speed and pushing power. Two FingerTech "tinyESC" speed controllers translate the radio receiver commands into motor movement and provide 5V power to the radio.
*Transmitter and receiver are required
