Swiss design - small is beautifull

The Turtle is much more fun now with a Lipo. More power (indeed not required), more duration. The Lipo is removable, recharged on an USB-like key. The trick to avoid a gearbox is a direct-drive pager…

The Turtle is much more fun now with a Lipo. More power (indeed not required), more duration. The Lipo is removable, recharged on an USB-like key.

The trick to avoid a gearbox is a direct-drive pager motor (thin rubber on shaft, small angle) and control it at very low speed (PFM control,

Great little turtle bot!

The bot looks incredibly cute, and it is super fast for its size. Docs are very clear and shipping was almost instantaneous :)
Keep up the great work!

Very fun little bot

There isn't a lot that can be said about the turtle bot that isn't obvious from the pictures and the video on the product description. If you are unsure, watch the video to see it dance. It is a little robot running on two motors with a battery on the back. It is remarkably fast and agile. I haven't tried the IR remote controls but the demo modes on startup have been fun.

I knew as soon as I saw the video I had to have one. It's just a really cool toy robot and I haven't seen anything similar before. It doesn't hurt that it is pretty cute too.

If only I could order a robot-army of turtle bots - muahahaha!!
