Where it performs

  • High payload capacity supports integration of multiple sensors and equipment.
  • Compatible with ROS and ROS2, easing development efforts.
  • Ackermann steering offers predictable handling for autonomy experiments.

What to check before buying

  • IP22 rating indicates limited protection against water and dust ingress.
  • Maximum speed is relatively low, restricting high-speed applications.
  • Operating temperature range may limit outdoor deployment in extreme climates.
