The FingerTech Viper Combat Robot Kit w/ Radio & Charger is an ideal entry point into the world of combat robotics, offering a comprehensive package for enthusiasts eager to engage in competitive robotics. This kit includes essential components such as a robust chassis, motors, wheels, speed controllers, and protective armor, all accompanied by a user-friendly instruction manual. The kit is designed to be versatile and expandable, allowing users to upgrade to a Lifter or Spinner configuration with optional add-ons.

The chassis is crafted from custom-formed 6061-T6 Aluminum, providing ample strength and space for additional components and future upgrades. The kit includes a 6-Channel radio transmitter and receiver pair, which leaves four channels available for the integration of additional active devices. The two FingerTech 'Silver Spark' gearmotors, paired with 2.25-inch foam wheels, deliver both speed and pushing power, while the 'tinyESC' speed controllers efficiently translate radio commands into motor movements and supply 5V power to the radio.

Polycarbonate combat armor is included to ensure the safety of the internal components during operation. The kit is designed to be modified and upgraded, encouraging creativity and customization. It is recommended for individuals aged 10 and above, although children as young as 6 can participate with parental supervision. The base weight of the robot is 313 grams, allowing for additional parts to be added if competing in the Antweight class.

Note: Transmitter, receiver, and battery are required for operation. The Viper can operate on a 9V battery or lipoly battery packs.
