4WD Double Layer Smart Car Chassis Kit – Longer Version

4WD Smart Car Chassis Kit – Double Layer Longer Version

The 4WD Smart Car Chassis Kit – Longer Version is a complete mechanical foundation for building four-wheel-drive robots. Made from transparent acrylic, this extended double-decker chassis gives you significantly more deck space than the standard version — ideal for projects that need multiple sensors, a motor driver board, a battery holder, and a microcontroller all on the same platform without crowding.

This 4WD Smart Car Chassis Kit includes four geared DC motors, rubber wheels, encoder discs, brass standoffs, and all fasteners — start assembling immediately. Perfectly suited for Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, and STM32-based robotics projects for beginners and engineering students alike.

Why Choose the Longer Version?

• Extended top deck (255 × 150 mm) — more surface area for motor drivers, battery holders, and sensor arrays vs. the standard chassis
• Generous inter-deck clearance — 30mm brass spacers create ample vertical space between layers for tidy cable routing
• Same proven drivetrain — identical 200 RPM geared motors and 65mm rubber wheels as the standard 4WD Smart Car Chassis Kit

Key Features

• Transparent Acrylic Chassis — see-through design for easy wiring inspection and a clean look
• Double-Layer Structure — bottom layer for motors and battery; top layer for controller, driver board, and sensors
• 4 × Geared DC BO Motors (200 RPM, 3V–6V) — 1:48 reduction ratio delivers strong torque at low speed
• 4 × Velocimetry Encoder Discs — mount on motor shafts for wheel-speed measurement and closed-loop PID control
• 65mm Rubber Wheels — good grip on smooth floors, carpets, and light terrain
• Multiple M3 Mounting Holes — compatible with Arduino Uno, Mega, ESP32 Dev Board, Raspberry Pi form factors
• Brass Standoffs Included — L30+6 spacers for stable, pre-measured layer separation
• Easy Assembly — no soldering required; M3 screw-and-nut construction throughout
• Lightweight — ~400g assembled chassis (without electronics)
