ROSMASTER M3

Yahboom (China) · 2026

$779.90 – $2,409.90Yahboom store, October 2026. Every kit includes an Orbbec DaBai DCW2 depth camera and lidar. Standard $779.90 without a board (needs a Pi 5 8 GB, cheapest version with a depth camera), $959.90 with RDK X5 8 GB (cheapest with a board), $1,109.90 with Pi 5 8 GB, $1,459.90 with Orin Nano Super 8 GB. Superior adds a 7-inch display, $879.90 without a board and $1,209.90 to $1,859.90 with one. Ultimate adds a second T-mini Plus lidar and the display, $999.90 without a board and $1,329.90 to $2,409.90 (Orin NX Super 16 GB). Battery and charger are included.

Weeks+Shipping: ~1–2 wks (est.). Ships from Yahboom in Shenzhen, China. Yahboom's shipping policy says orders are usually processed within 24 hours and shipped the next business day, most arrive within 6 working days after dispatch, and orders over $499 ship free by DHL, UPS or FedEx. Import duties and taxes are paid by the buyer. An Amazon US listing that appears to be the M3 with an Orin Nano Super and dual lidar shows up in search results, but it was not opened, so price and Prime status are unconfirmed. Yahboom ↗
Remote control: ROS 2 Humble runs on the robot's board (in Docker on the Pi 5, native on RDK X5 and Jetson Orin). A laptop connects over SSH, VNC or ROS 2 networking for RViz, and a mapping and navigation phone app is available.

Overview

Yahboom's 2026 mecanum rover with suspension, sitting above the ROSMASTER M1 and ROSMASTER A1. Unlike those two, every M3 kit includes a depth camera, an Orbbec DaBai DCW2 with a 0.15 m minimum range, which suits close-range following. The course is one of Yahboom's most complete, with Nav2, RTAB-Map, YOLOv11 on the depth camera and LLM chapters, and Yahboom recommends an Orin board for smooth LLM use. The Pi 5 runs YOLOv11 at about 4 fps by Yahboom's own figures, and the board-included kits start near $960.
