From Playtime to Professional Use 🚀
The Rover is not just for fun – it's also a powerful tool for professional applications. Below, you'll find examples of typical days using the Rover, helping you understand the workflow and the similarities between play and work!
🎮 Playtime
📅 Preparation (The Day Before)
✅ Charge the Rover battery, the spare battery, and the controller.
✅ If using an action camera (e.g., GoPro), make sure it's fully charged.
🏁 Game Day
🔹 Bring the Rover, batteries, and controller.
🔹 Turn on the controller first, then connect the battery and power on the Rover.
🔹 Let the fun begin! Drive the Rover around the park or any open space!
📷 If using a camera, capture amazing action shots!
🔋 Battery Life:
🕒 Each battery lasts about 45 minutes → With two batteries, you get 1.5 – 2 hours of playtime.
🔧 After Playtime
✔️ Clean the Rover (remove dust, leaves, and dirt).
✔️ Blow air to remove debris (preferably at a car repair shop, not a gas station to avoid moisture issues).
✔️ Store the batteries properly to ensure they're ready for next time.
🎉 That's it! Simple, exciting, and easy!
🤖 in a Robotics Lab
📅 Preparation (The Day Before)
✅ Charge the Rover fleet and make sure the correct code is uploaded for the lesson.
📚 Classroom Session
🔸 Today’s lesson: Differential motion & control.
🔸 A timer in the software disables the right side wheels after 5 minutes, creating a real-time learning experience.
🔸 Students observe and discuss how differential speed affects movement.
🕹 After the Lesson
✔️ Restore the correct software and let students enjoy free play.
✔️ Prepare the Rovers for the next lesson!
👩🏫 An engaging way to teach real-world engineering concepts!
🏆 at the BattleBot Café
📅 Preparation (The Day Before)
✅ Charge all Rovers and batteries.
✅ Teams register online, indicating who will bring their own Rovers and who will rent.
✅ Check all screws, sensors, and hit-detection modules.
🎯 During the Tournament
🔹 Rovers enter the arena in pairs, threes, or fours.
🔹 Battle begins! Rovers lose points when hit on the Kill Mod targets.
🔹 The software can be customized for respawns, power-ups, or kill zones.
⚙️ Post-Battle Maintenance
✔️ Clean & inspect Rovers.
✔️ 3D print replacement parts if necessary.
✔️ Prepare for the next big event!
🚀 The ultimate RC battle experience!
📡 at Work – Air Duct Inspection
📅 Preparation (The Day Before)
✅ Charge Rover batteries, FPV goggles, and HDMI receiver.
✅ Pack extra batteries for extended use.
📍 On-Site Inspection
🔸 Check if the air duct can support the Rover’s weight (approx. 3 kg).
🔸 Deploy the Rover into the air duct and monitor live FPV footage.
🔸 Optional: Attach a robotic arm for sample collection.
🔧 After the Job
✔️ Clean the Rover (compressed air, avoid gas stations).
✔️ Store batteries in storage mode for future use.
📢 Job done safely, efficiently, and with zero human risk!
🏗 on a Construction Site – Cable Pulling
📅 Preparation (The Day Before)
✅ Charge the Rover and FPV camera.
✅ Pack extra batteries.
🏗 On-Site Deployment
🔹 Forgotten cable installation in an underground duct? No problem!
🔹 The Rover is small enough to navigate tight spaces where humans can't fit.
🔹 Attach a cable pilot line to the Rover and guide it from one side of the tunnel to the other.
✅ Problem solved! The cable is pulled through with minimal effort!
💡 Other Possible Rover Applications
🔹 Search & Rescue – Exploring hazardous areas without human risk.
🔹 Pipe & tunnel inspections – Navigating and capturing real-time video.
🔹 Remote transport of small objects – Delivering tools or items to hard-to-reach locations.
🔹 Entertainment & FPV Racing – Compete in high-speed Rover races!
🎯 Conclusion
The Rover is more than just a toy – it’s an all-purpose tool with limitless possibilities!
✅ For fun, learning & competitive RC battles!
✅ For inspections, industrial work & rescue missions!
