Overview
A remote-controlled tracked platform for looking into places a person can't easily reach, rather than a programmable robot. A FlySky FS-i6 6-channel transmitter, as shown in the product photos, steers it with variable speed, at up to 300 m away. A tilting 720p camera sends live video up to 200 m to a screen on the transmitter. The aluminum deck has mounting holes for adding instruments, and it carries up to 5 kg. It climbs 8 cm obstacles and slopes of up to 8°.
