The DFRobotShop Rover V2 - Arduino Compatible Tracked Robot (+ LiPo) is a versatile mobile robot tank based on the popular Arduino Uno R3 USB Microcontroller microcontroller. The Rover uses the popular Tamiya twin-motor gearbox and the Tamiya track and wheelset.

The DFRobotShop Rover PCB incorporates a standard Arduino Uno (surface mount ATMega328), L293B motor driver (connected to pins 5 to 8), voltage regulator, and prototyping area while contributing to the mechanical structure of the robot. The onboard voltage regulator allows the entire board to be powered using as little as 3.7 V to ~9 V*. 

Important Note: If you are using the 4xAA battery pack, please remove the LiPo jumper located at the left rear of the board.

The board does NOT include 2mm 10pin XBee Socket .

In order to make assembly as easy as possible, solderless quick-connect terminals have been included to give customers the option of crimping the wires to the motors (soldering is still preferable).

The DFRobotShop Rover is compatible with a variety of shields when used at the same time as the motor driver, and is compatible with all shiels when not using the motor driver. Additional features include 2 x encoder connectors connected to A0 and A1 for use with the Encoder Pair for Tamiya Twin Motor Gearbox , pinout for DFRobot Bluetooth and DFRobot APC220 RF modules as well as 6 x cool blue LEDs (jumper selectable) placed around the board. "DFRobotShop" = "DFRobot" + "RobotShop" (a.k.a. "DFRover").

*Note that the Tamiya Twin-Motor Gear Box included with the kit operates at 4.5 V nominal. For 6 V motors purchase 2 x RB-Pol-202.
